Our Approach
Our Approach
Blurring the Lines Between Play and Learning
At Tall & Tiny, we embrace the intrinsic link between play and learning, recognising that they are mutually reinforcing and essential for childhood development.
Our child-led approach prioritises play as the primary driver of learning, fostering creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
By empowering children to take the lead in their own learning journey, we create an environment where curiosity and exploration thrive, and learning objectives are skillfully woven into play-based experiences.
