Tiny Travellers

Our Tiny Travellers room provides a warm, nurturing environment for children aged six weeks to two years, offering a true home-from-home experience where little ones feel safe, secure, and valued.

The room features a spacious play area alongside a dedicated sleep space with cots and floor beds, allowing children to rest peacefully according to their individual routines and needs.

We encourage children to enjoy mealtimes together, helping them develop independence, learn to use cutlery, and build positive social skills from an early age.

Rather than following a rigid timetable, we tailor each day to your child’s interests, developmental stage, and individual needs. During these important early years, learning is centred around play, exploration, and discovery, helping children flourish and develop confidence.

We support children’s development through a wide range of engaging activities, including singing, sensory experiences, storytelling, and sand and water play. These experiences help to strengthen fine motor skills, communication, confidence, and social development while fostering a love of learning from the very beginning.

Little Explorers & Big Adventures

Our Little Explorers and Big Adventures rooms are carefully designed to support children aged 2 to 5 years as they grow in confidence, develop independence, and explore the world around them through play and discovery.

In our Little Explorers room, for children aged 2–3 years, we encourage curiosity, independence, and creativity through a wide range of engaging learning experiences. At this stage, children are developing their language, social skills, and imagination, so we provide plenty of opportunities for role play, sensory exploration, and creative activities. A calming teepee area also offers a quiet space where children can relax, reflect, and regulate their emotions when needed.

Our Big Adventures room, for children aged 3–5 years, builds on these foundations and supports children as they prepare for their transition to school. Through fun, hands-on activities, children are encouraged to develop their communication, literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving skills. We help children recognise letters and sounds, begin early reading and writing, explore numbers and mathematical concepts, and develop the confidence to think independently.

Across both rooms, learning is guided by children’s interests and individual stages of development. Through a balance of child-led play and carefully planned experiences, we create an environment where every child feels supported, inspired, and ready to reach their full potential.

Where Montessori Philosophy Meets The EYFS

At Little Adventures Taunton, we blend Montessori-inspired learning with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework to provide a balanced, engaging and meaningful early years experience where every child can thrive.

Children enjoy:

• Child-led learning through exploration — following their interests and discovering at their own pace
• Practical life activities — building independence, confidence and everyday skills
• Sensory play experiences — supporting cognitive, physical and emotional development
• Creative and imaginative opportunities — encouraging curiosity, expression and problem-solving
• Outdoor exploration and nature-based learning — nurturing wellbeing, resilience and a love of the natural world
• Gentle, predictable routines — helping children feel secure, calm and ready to learn

We believe in honouring childhood by allowing every child to grow at their own pace through meaningful, hands-on experiences that inspire confidence, joy and a lifelong love of learning.
