For Toddlers Aged 12 – 18 Months
We have created a safe, healthy and well-balanced environment to enhance each child’s individual needs. Our Early Toddler Classroom is designed to continue focusing on the six developmental domains that are at the center of school and life success.
These six domains are physical health, emotional development, social development, motor development, language development and communication development, and cognitive development. We will promote growth in each of these domains by implementing developmentally appropriate and engaging activities for our early toddlers.
We will continue to encourage the children to use and learn American sign language to better help us communicate with each child. Also, we will start to develop their verbal skills through activities implemented by our loving and caring staff. In this classroom we will begin to introduce a teacher facilitated circle time where the children will be learning about shapes, colors, numbers, and letters by reading stories, singing songs and more.
Registration Fee: $100

*We have a Toddler Profile sheet that will better help your child’s teacher care for your child and engage them in activities to further their development.
