Our Toddler Program

A place for growing curious, happy and confident toddlers

Our space is built for active and inquisitive toddlers with environments made up of well-planned learning centers that allow for physical activity, child choice and self-directed play, small groups, and supportive teaching. There are reading nooks, sensory tables, great books, pretend play areas, baskets filled with dress-up and exploratory materials, musical instruments, and outdoor places to explore.

Learning experiences are planned to promote each toddler’s growing independence, to enhance social skills, and to build the confidence needed to reach their individual potential and prepare for preschool and beyond.

"Our family wants to commend the wonderful environment they create in Toddlers. They encourage creativity, build responsibility, and give positive guidance to all the children. Each of them is filled with stories about my child's day, and I trust the teachers completely. "

Commuting Game

You Will Need:

Nothing!

Directions:

As you are driving in your vehicle, ask your child to identify various items. For instance, ask her to find: a bus, truck, flag, barn, McDonald's, etc. Once you approach the item, point it out and say, "I see the yellow bus." At first, focus on things that your child will easily recognize, then add a bit of a challenge. This game can also be played in a restaurant while waiting for a table or your food. It works well anywhere a toddler might have to wait. As your child gets better at this game, she might be able to ask you to find something.

Tip:

Show enthusiasm. Change your vocal tones.
