In the toddler program, the toddlers have opportunities to explore a variety of domains: large motor, small motor, crafts, and “learning through play.” Days are loosely structured so that toddlers can exercise their independence of choice, but some structured activities are planned throughout the day. These vary every day, and they include a specific large motor activity (like running, jumping, and climbing - outside, when weather permits) and fine motor activities (like doing puzzles or sorting beads). These structured activities help prepare toddlers for the Preschool (and later Pre-K) classes. Throughout the day, toddlers might learn about colors, animals, animal noises, counting 1-5, their ABC’s, and social skills.
