2 Years Old

Our two year old program is designed to encourage your child’s communication, and to assert their independence and individuality. Twos are moving from the total dependence of babyhood to the more independent, mobile world of preschoolers.

Your child will have the opportunity to choose from a wide variety of developmentally appropriate activities that will appeal to the child’s senses in as many ways as possible, incorporating supportive teaching that will prepare your child for academic excellence.

You can expect your child to hear the sounds of letters from stories, songs, rhymes and silly tongue twisters. Your child will manipulate many objects with the thumb and forefinger, strengthening and coordinating these muscles for years of future pencil holding. During their busy day, your two year old child will learn about shapes, sizes and volume with water and sand play, puzzles, sorting activities, manipulative and blocks, and will also get the feel of numbers with counting beads, sorting games, songs and finger plays. 

Their classroom daily schedule will involve self directed play, circle time twice daily, creative painting, working and kneading with play dough, movement with music, and musical instruments. Your child will be driven to practice newly acquired capabilities: understanding and a sense of success, by ensuring a building of confidence and competence being gained through daily repetition. Because two year olds need consistency and security in their environment, these activities are conducted in a self-contained classroom. The children are divided into small groups at times during the morning in order to address their different developmental needs and capabilities.
