Toddlers learn in an intentionally planned environment that includes play, art, music, discovery, small circle and outdoor time.We use the "Wee Learn" and "Creative Curriculum for Infants and Toddlers" to plan and implement developmentally appropriate activities.Lots of hands on learning activities are utilized to help toddlers explore at their own pace.
The Preschool 1 Years
Cognitive Development
Children this age continue to learn through play. Play begins to be more symbolic of real life. Time and numbers are still abstract for this age.
Social Development
Children begin to initiate play with each other and will play in small groups of 2 to 3 children. They also begin to imitate what they see.
Emotional Development
Children display feelings of anger, enjoyment, fear, and affection. They exhibit a strong desire for independence. Children begin to show empathy.
Fine Motor Development
During this year, the use of the hand, fingers, and thumb are refined. Precise fine motor skills are still hard to manage.
Gross Motor Development
Young Preschoolers tend to walk with a wide stance. They can climb, push, pull, and hang with both hands. Children will use both arms and legs when only one is needed.
