Toddler Program

Ages 1-2
Young Explorers Toddler Program
 
 As your child grows, his/her unique personality develops. Toddlers begin to navigate relationships with other students and playmates. Academically, they thrive with kinetic learning, active discovery, and developing independence with everyday life skills.
 

Language

Fun, hands-on lessons teach letter recognition, sound to letter correspondence, and word building. Teaching songs and music activate auditory processing skills.

Science

Sensorial lessons with snow, textured items, shapes, and themed items teach about the physical world around them. Smelling jars of spices, light boxes, and other lessons are as fun as they are educational. Messy finger painting and other art projects support discovery too.

Socialization

Shared laughs and discoveries with friends begins to foster social relationships and understanding of how to be a community member. Developing independence with practical life skills builds confidence.

Pre-Math

It’s the right time to display and name numerals, demonstrate sequencing of big, medium, and small, sing and say numbers.

Body Strength

Tummy time, free movement, bouncing, reaching for objects and grasping foster muscle toning and the start of coordination. Teachers model communicating with gestures such as waving, pointing, and beginning signing.
