The Playbox Curriculum is active, innovative, and built for lifelong growth.
At Playbox Childcare Centre, learning starts with movement. Our play-based, movement-first curriculum combines active play, creativity, and discovery to build confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning. In our 10,000 square foot gymnasium, children strengthen their bodies, minds, and hearts through purposeful play that prepares them for school and for life.

The Early Learning Window for Physical Literacy
Early childhood is the most important time to develop movement confidence. Between ages 1 and 5, the brain rapidly builds connections between motor skills, balance, coordination, and focus. At Playbox Childcare Centre, movement is not just play, it is learning.
The Power of Movement
Children who move every day show stronger attention spans and faster language development. Physical activity increases blood flow to the brain, helping kids think clearly and stay calm. When children are active, they aren’t just burning energy, they’re building the foundation for learning.
Play That Shapes the Mind
Movement builds the same neural pathways used for reading, math, and focus. A child balancing on a beam or catching a ball is wiring their brain for problem-solving and memory. Through guided play, we help children strengthen both their bodies and their minds.
Confidence That Lasts a Lifetime
When children master new skills, jumping higher, climbing further, throwing straighter—they gain real confidence. That confidence transfers to the classroom and to relationships with others. Movement teaches persistence, self-belief, and pride in progress.
Discover
Inspiring curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning
The Early Learning Window for Discovery
Early childhood is when curiosity peaks. At Playbox, we nurture that natural wonder through play-based exploration, helping children connect ideas, ask questions, and think critically about the world around them.
Curiosity in Action
Children learn best by doing. Whether they’re experimenting with water flow, sorting objects by size, or asking “what if,” every moment of exploration strengthens problem-solving and early reasoning skills.
Creativity That Counts
Art, music, and storytelling are more than fun—they grow imagination and emotional intelligence. Research shows creative play helps children express themselves, build empathy, and approach challenges with confidence.
Building Early Foundations
Through playful introductions to letters, numbers, and science concepts, children develop readiness for school without pressure. Every discovery big or small builds the focus, memory, and motivation they’ll carry into lifelong learning.
Belong
Fostering connection, confidence, and emotional growth
The Early Learning Window for Connection
The first five years shape how children see themselves and others. At Playbox, we build a sense of belonging where every child feels safe, valued, and supported to grow with confidence.
Relationships That Matter
Strong bonds with teachers and peers give children the security to explore and learn. Consistent, caring relationships form the foundation for trust, empathy, and resilience skills proven to support lifelong wellbeing.
Emotionally Aware Learners
Children who can name and manage their feelings are better prepared to solve problems and handle challenges. Through modeling and guided play, our educators help children develop emotional awareness and self-regulation.
A Community That Cares
Belonging goes beyond the classroom. We partner with families to create a connected community where every child feels seen and supported. When children know they matter, they thrive in school and in life.
