Preparing Your Child for Lifelong Learning
At this age, children are meeting new challenges as fast as they come. Crawling, walking and eventually running are milestones they accomplish in what seems like the blink of an eye. Children learn best if they are in a stimulating environment. Music, stories, outdoor play, and learning envelop much of the day. Our caregivers are dedicated to helping each child develop these skills through a trusting and loving relationship.
Children at this age are learning to:
- Transition from bottle to a sippy cup
- Communicate through practical sign language
- Build expressive vocabulary
- Develop fine motor skills
- Explore the environment in a positive way
- Engage in sensory activities
- Refine gross motor skills, balance, and coordination
- Express independence
- Enter beginning stages of cooperative play
- Gain an understanding of basic phonetic and mathematic concepts, opposites, colors, and shapes
