Toddler Program
2 to 3 year-olds
Always on the move, your toddler is thirsting to become one of the “big kids”. Our program supplements an established curriculum with opportunities to explore individual interests and build social and emotional awareness.
A Running Start
Toddlers are eager to learn, with feet and minds ready to assert their independence. We create meaningful learning experiences that fuel curiosity, teach toddlers to think for themselves, and give space to choose the activities they enjoy most.
Imaginations at Work
Toddlers thrive when they get the chance to test out their own ideas. Experimentation, problem-solving, and pretend play are essential to our daily classroom activities.
Movement is Key
Running, jumping, skipping, and climbing all promote your toddler’s physical, social, and cognitive development. We introduce games, dance, and other activities designed specifically for toddlers.
Embrace Emotion
A supportive and kind environment is important as little ones learn to understand and manage big feelings. We introduce tools to express emotion in a healthy and positive way.
