Kick Start Kindy
4 years - 5 years
Starting school can be challenging for many children; socially, emotionally and educationally.
But this transition can be eased by equipping your child with foundational language and literacy skills so they can feel confident.
Let me ask you:
-
Has your child’s teacher expressed concerns about their readiness for school?
-
Does your child have awareness of the colours, shapes, letters and numbers, and you’re unsure of what to explore next?
-
Do you worry that your child might feel lost once they get to school?
-
Does your child have a history of language or speech difficulties?
-
Does your child struggle to follow instructions and attend tasks?
If you answered YES to any of the above, then the Kick Start Kindy program will be perfect for your child.

In this program, your child will build on their foundational knowledge!
In our 6-week evidence-based ‘Kick Start Kindy’ program, your child will master key foundational skills which form the basis of all learning.
The program targets the following crucial areas your child will need to thrive during their early years at school:
1) Letters and sounds (s, a, t, p, i, n)
2) Phonological Awareness (syllables, rhyme, auditory discrimination, sound identification)
3) Following instructions (listening, attention, memory)
4) Vocabulary (themes, concepts, categories)
5) Comprehension (answering questions)
6) Emotions (labeling and identifying feelings)
7) Sentence Structure and Grammar
8) Higher Level Thinking (combining clues from experience and texts to make educated guesses)

"Lipsy Loo Learning is engaging and awesome for kids! My son loves his Lipsy Loo weekly class. He also loves his Lipsy Loo activities sent after each session and would enthusiastically work with me to complete a task.
The homework provided me with ideas and ways on how to teach my child with his lessons!"

"We signed up for Lipsy Loo to help our son feel school ready for next year and for him to learn any new skills he may not have picked up at preschool.
Lipsy Loo not only managed to capture the attention of my son, but she kept him entertained throughout all the fun activities that felt more like a series of games than a lesson."

Please note for best results, it is recommended that the educational videos are viewed by both the child and parent.
They are designed to be interactive so that your child can answer questions and so that you can learn strategies to support your child.
Whilst the program is designed to be carried out over 6 weeks, you can move through at your own pace.
It is recommended that areas of difficulty are noted so these sections can be revisited after the program is completed.
With weekly episodes and homework, ‘Kick Start Kindy’ will teach you exactly what you need to do to put your child on track to becoming the best learner they can be.
