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.

Sound of the Day

You Will Need:

Nothing!

Directions:

Choose a sound that you have heard your child babble frequently. Repeat this sound many times during the day, using it in words, songs, or babbling it yourself. For example. “Ba” is a common early sound. Sing “Bah Bah Black Sheep”, play with a “ball”, sit in a “box”, drink from a “bottle”, etc. Stress the sound as you talk about what you are doing during the day.

Tip:

Babies under 6 months respond to a high pitched voice. By four months they are noticing the individual sounds you make and repeating them often. They are learning how vowel and consonant sounds are used together. For children over 6 months avoid using “baby talk” but make your voice very rhythmic. After 6 or 7 months your child may make a game of imitating your sounds of speech.
