6 – 12 months

At ICK, the children in this age group are in the Sai Gon Class. We believe babies learn best when they are not “being taught." Infant development is one of learning through fun and play. It is far more enriching to provide infants with rich and varied experiences for them to explore their surroundings and learn about the people around them than to use flashcards or train their brains to memorise words and pictures.
For example, younger infants are exposed to different facial expressions through animated reading and colourful textured books to stimulate their five senses, and also to language and communication skills. 
ICK has a dedicated infant section. The room is wonderful for infants, designed with a balance between serenity, security and stimulation.

Key Features of our infant programme include:

• Extensive verbal stimulation where infants are often talked to, to encourage language and social development
• Enriching & stimulating surroundings to provide just enough sensory stimulation  
• Tumbling activities & daily baby massages which are important to physical development
• Regular health checks by our nurse to ensure developmental milestones and general wellness are achieved
• A comfortable and secure environment for quality play and sleep  
• Pleasing decor with adequate childproofing to ensure safe explorations 
• Appropriate selection of books for reading to provide a strong language foundation
• Music & movement including catchy action songs specially selected to captivate infants
• Providing advice on your infant's physical, emotional and mental development
