Theme-oriented creative play sessions

Each week a different theme enters the core curriculum — themes such as IMAGINATION, WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES, NATURE, or OUR BIG, VAST WORLD.

Weekly theme sessions

Participation in activities and exercises is geared towards enhancing children’s natural development into energetic, imaginative expression. Diverse art forms and multiculturalism are integrated into the play schedule at consistent intervals, so learning spontaneously emerges, builds upon itself, and goes deeper with constant revisiting.

Recent cycles have explored themes such as IMAGINATION, WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES, NATURE and OUR BIG, VAST WORLD, with integrated activities from creative movement and drama to storytelling and yoga supporting each theme. See how the pieces fit together in the studio curriculum.

Special event series

Studio Creative Play hosts special presentations featuring dance and theatre troupes, magicians, artists, writers and musicians, offering children rewarding exposure to the arts. Visiting performers give every child a firsthand experience of artistic expression beyond the weekly session.

Free-play & community

During free-play, children interact with parents and staff with Creative Play toys, games and activities. Families may also use the alternate space reserved for parents and caregivers.
