The toddler program is designed to provide a gentle transition for children starting preschool. Teachers and parents work together to help children become comfortable in their new surroundings and the concept of being separated from their parents for extended periods of time. The program focuses on helping children develop independence, motor skills, physical. Children start working on Montessori materials through practical life and sensorial activities; designed to help improve their fine and gross motor skills as well as hand-eye coordination. During the day children are encouraged to engage in enriched play and teacher-designed projects. A variety of extracurricular activities are offered to enhance learning.
A key focus is on activities that promote motor exploration, motor activities, language, aural and oral expression, and musicality. As with all our classrooms, we provide an environment that encourages the child's spontaneous activity, and which fosters the development of the creative process, integrated personality, and a strong sense of self. The classroom environments emphasize a variety of interesting things to explore, experience, and look at; each designed to meet the development stages of the child. The curriculum has resources, materials, and activities that encourage exploration. We provide a flexible sequence of routines and activities that reinforce the rhythmic patterns of toddlers. Most of all, we provide an atmosphere that communicates love, acceptance and trust.
Let us help your child experience the love of learning the natural way.
