Toddler Curriculum
Learning through play, the toddlers are given many choices of different manipulatives and toys through out the day. They are exposed to art everyday either through a teacher lead art project or through toddler lead art. These art projects can be stamps, crayons/markers, paints, or even stickers. Participation is not forced but encouraged. We try our best to assist in potty training as much as possible with group trips to the bathroom. We take advantage of many learning opportunities whether it be puddle stomping in the rain or looking shapes on a walk. We believe toddlers learn best through play and life experiences.
