As your toddler begins exploring the world around them with growing confidence, our Educators nurture new developmental skills and celebrate curiosity!
We support children to build early friendships, practicing collaborative play while exploring empathy.
Children are gradually introduced to a new emotional vocabulary, with the help of tools such as the N Mood Meter.
Children will gain increasing independence, starting to anticipate what happens next in classroom routines.
Physical Development
Gross motor skills are quickly strengthened, as we explore climbing steps with support, gain the ability to move faster with increasing control, and start running!
Children at this age will learn the first group of yoga poses, and some basic breathing techniques.
Communication & Language
Children will develop an understanding of simple sentences and be able to put two words together, eg “more please”
We encourage children to self-express, using their own voice to repeat favorite parts of a story or song.
Expressive Arts & Design
We dive into imaginative dramatic play, and explore pairing music with movement!
We build fine motor skills, exploring different mark-making tools with increasing accuracy and confidence through our Doodle Dance sessions.
Mathematics
Children begin to categorize and sort objects, while discovering different concepts such as empty/full and big/small through practical experience.
We count aloud 1-5 with increasing confidence!
Literacy
We encourage children to point to and name familiar pictures or objects in storybooks.
Children enjoy interactive storytime, echoing familiar words and phrases and joining in with sound effects.
Understanding the World
Children will start to recognize some different types of plants and animals, and learn how we can help to care for them
Our weekly Spanish sessions will see children start to use simple greetings: “¡Hola!”
Our weekly cooking sessions introduce children to basic measuring, as we start to follow simple recipes.
