The Curriculum Framework at Daisy Days Regina SK

Every Daisy Days program is built on Saskatchewan’s provincial early learning framework – the evidence-based curriculum document developed by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education that defines what quality early childhood education looks like from birth through school entry. It is the same framework that governs what ECE-certified educators in Saskatchewan are trained to implement.

1. Children Are Capable Learners

At Daisy Days, we do not treat children as empty vessels waiting to be filled with knowledge. We treat them as active investigators of their own world. Our educators extend and deepen children’s natural inquiry rather than delivering content at children who passively receive it.

2. Play Is the Primary Vehicle for Learning

The research on play-based learning is extensive and unambiguous: for children under 6, play is not a break from learning ‐ it IS learning. Daisy Days curriculum is play-based by design and by evidence.

3. Relationships Are the Foundation of All Learning

Children learn best in the context of secure, consistent relationships with trusted adults. At Daisy Days, we prioritize having the same educators with the same children rather than rotating staff for operational convenience.

4. Families Are Children’s First Educators

You know your child better than any educator ever will. At Daisy Days, we treat every enrolled family as an essential partner in their child’s care and development.

5. Every Child’s Development Is Individual

Developmental milestones are ranges, not schedules. At Daisy Days, our educators observe, document, and respond to individual children rather than standardized groups.

Infant Program Curriculum – 6 Weeks to 18 Months

The infant curriculum at Daisy Days is the most individualized programming we offer. Key elements: sensory exploration (tactile materials, visual tracking, auditory experiences); movement and motor development (structured tummy time, crawling, walking practice); language immersion (continuous narration, serve-and-return communication, book-reading, singing, rhymes); social-emotional foundations (consistent responses to infant distress, secure attachment building). CWELCC fee: $10/day. Full infant program page.

Toddler Program Curriculum – 18 Months to 3 Years

The toddler curriculum is emergent – it follows children’s observed interests and developmental readiness. Key elements: language development (serve-and-return conversations, vocabulary extension, story reading, song and rhyme); sensory and art (painting, playdough, water play, sensory bins); physical development (daily outdoor play year-round, gross and fine motor); mathematical thinking (sorting, classification, counting, patterns); social skills (turn-taking, peer interaction, conflict resolution).

How Educators Plan and Document Curriculum

At Daisy Days, educators follow a planning and documentation cycle: weekly curriculum plans; daily observation and documentation; individual developmental tracking across five domains (physical, cognitive, language, social-emotional, adaptive).
