Building Literacy and Numeracy Skills Through Play
Literacy and math aren't just worksheets here. We use hands-on, multi-sensory activities to spark curiosity and build strong foundations for every child at our Kothanur and Thanisandra campuses.
Unlock the power of words in your child. Our after-school phonics program for 4-10 year olds at the Kothanur campus helps boost reading and writing skills through fun, interactive sessions in small batches.
Phonics builds confidence, comprehension, and communication. Our program helps your child decode unfamiliar words, spell better, read fluently, and express their thoughts clearly.
Speaking and reading skills need to be nurtured. Our program uses the proven Jolly Phonics method, which is age-appropriate, multi-sensory, and interactive to build strong reading, writing, and spelling skills.
The great wall of letters isn't built in a day. With our help, children build a new brick of literacy each day, using fun, hands-on tools like these letter blocks to make learning an adventure.
Dive into the world of letters with our fun phonics activity. This collage shows children using cotton to trace letters, a wonderful sensory experience that helps them learn sounds and shapes.
Ready to see your child love math? We turn numbers into magic with hands-on learning tools like these peg boards, making math exciting, creative, and rewarding for every child.
Who said numbers can't be fun? We build up number skills with engaging games and puzzles. Here, children are matching numbers, learning to count and recognize numerals in a playful way.
A new chapter begins at our library. This video shows the journey of how we handpicked over 1300 books, prepared them with care, and watched our children dive into a world of stories.
Reading is dreaming with open eyes. In our library, children build language, focus, and a lifelong love for stories. Every book is a new adventure waiting to unfold.
Open the door to a world of tales. We believe in surrounding children with books from a young age to spark their curiosity and lay the foundation for innovative thinking and problem-solving skills.
About Building Blocks of Literacy & Numeracy
We don't believe in forcing rote memorization. Instead, we use the Jolly Phonics method and tangible math manipulatives—like peg boards and sorting games—so your child learns to decode sounds and understand quantity through touch and exploration.
A Different Approach to Foundational Skills
Learning to read, write, and count is a massive milestone for any preschooler. At Little Red Hen, we ensure this journey is driven by curiosity rather than pressure. Our classrooms in Kothanur and Thanisandra are designed to make these abstract concepts feel concrete, tangible, and exciting.
Why Phonics Matters
We utilize the Jolly Phonics method because it engages a child's senses. Rather than just staring at a board, children might trace letters in sand, use cotton to form shapes, or play games that help them decode unfamiliar words. This multi-sensory approach builds confidence, improves spelling, and helps children express their thoughts clearly. Our library, stocked with over 1300 handpicked titles, further encourages them to view reading as a daily adventure rather than a chore.
Math Without Worksheets
We turn numeracy into a game. You won't find our students completing repetitive number sheets. Instead, we use manipulatives like peg boards, sorting games, and everyday objects to teach logic and counting. Whether they are categorizing items or solving puzzles, they are building essential problem-solving skills without even realizing they are doing 'math.'
Our Methodology
Our programs are designed for children aged 4 to 10. By keeping our groups small—with a student-to-teacher ratio of roughly 1:10 to 1:12—we ensure each child receives the attention they need to grasp these foundational concepts at their own pace. We believe that when a child feels safe and engaged, the learning follows naturally.
Little Red Hen
We started Little Red Hen in 2014 because we wanted a place where children feel like explorers, not just students. Our team creates a space where reading feels like an adventure and math feels like a puzzle, ensuring every child finds their own rhythm.
