MINI MONARCH
Focus: Language Growth, Early Numeracy, Independence & Creative Exploration
3 – 4 Years Developmental Stage
Between 3 and 4 years, children become more confident in expressing themselves, both physically and verbally. They refine gross motor skills by running, jumping, and climbing with better balance and coordination. Language blossoms into full sentences, questions, and storytelling. Fine motor control improves through drawing shapes, using scissors with help, and building more complex structures. Socially, children begin cooperative play, learning to take turns and share, though independence and “self-doing” remain strong. Cognitive growth is seen in early problem-solving, counting, color recognition, and imagination through role play.
