Our Young Toddler Program builds upon the Infant program.
Children's day are a bit more structured, as is appropriate for
their age. Children are introduced to 'group' activities during
circle time (singing songs, learning body parts, playing hand games,
etc.).
- The Young Toddler Room is generously sized to allow for 15
Young Toddlers, however we only accept 10 Young Toddlers into
our program.
- We do not use play pens, except for napping. Children are
encouraged to explore their surrounding and the many
age-appropriate toys kept at their level.
Our Young Toddler Teachers are amazing.

We accept both full time and part-time children into the
program.

**Notes on Outside Play:
Ø
Outside Play is weather permitting.
Ø
Outside Play schedule may be adjusted between the
rooms to account for age of the children and circle time / art
project activities.
Ø
Our goal is to ensure children are outside twice a
day, weather permitting.
Note:
This is our spring/fall schedule. We adjust the activity time in the
summer to take advantage of the cooler hours (i.e. morning outside
play is earlier) for outdoor play. In the winter, we take the
children outside if the weather permits, otherwise we arrange for
larger motor activities indoors.
