Each session includes: 🎵 Song, rhythm based movement, sound regulation, live instruments by facilitators and children. 💃 Movement and dance 🧠 Play-based learning - Facilitators often rotate between animal walks, obstacle courses, yoga and meditative practices, interactive stories, sensory offerings and imaginative play. 🎲 Conversational interaction as a group, recognition of social cues, Body Detectives experience, and confidence building activities. Sessions are structured but flexible, allowing children to participate in a way that feels comfortable for them.

Unlike traditional classes, Sing Move Regulate is intentionally designed to support emotional development and nervous system regulation, using evidence-informed strategies derived from speech, physiotherapy and occupational therapy frameworks.

Sing Move Regulate aligns closely with the Early Years Learning Framework by supporting children’s social, emotional, and physical development through play-based, intentional learning experiences. The program contributes to key EYLF outcomes, including: Outcome 1: Children have a strong sense of identity Through our workshops children build self-awareness, confidence, and a sense of agency over their body as they learn to recognise and express their needs. Outcome 2: Children are connected with and contribute to their world We deliver group activities that support cooperation, turn-taking, cultural awareness, inclusion, and respect and consideration for the world around us. Outcome 3: Children have a strong sense of wellbeing All workshops provide fun activities to promote a personal experience of well-being sense of wellbeing among the children (and facilitators!) We encourage our groups to continue nurturing this felt sense within their homes and classrooms so that environmental learning can take place where-ever they go. Outcome 4: Children are confident and involved learners Our main goal is for children to identify and cultivate a sense of safety in their bodies. When children are confident they are more likely to explore, engage, support, be curious and participate in group activities. Outcome 5: Children are effective communicators Children develop emotional and sensory vocabulary, supporting their ability to express feelings and needs.

Yes! Sing Move Regulate is designed to be flexible and responsive to each setting. Sessions can be adapted to suit different age groups, group sizes, routines and environments, whether delivered in early learning centres, schools, or community spaces.
