Nursery Drama

Course Introduction: 

A playful, developmentally aligned drama program for ages 2.5–4 that nurtures body awareness, voice control, imagination, and social-emotional growth. Children progress from individual exploration to confident collaboration through movement, music, and storytelling in an interactive and inclusive environment.


Learning Outcomes:

  • Embodied Expression and Control: Children demonstrate increased control of body and voice, communicating feelings and ideas clearly.
  • Imagination and Story making: Children create and sequence simple narratives with a beginning, middle, and end.
  • Social Collaboration and Confidence: Children share focus, take turns, and participate in group performances with growing confidence.
