They are busy exploring their environment and learning to communicate their thoughts. While they begin to exert their independence, they are also gaining a better understanding of group play.

Our program emphasizes the development of the whole child, by focusing on both education fundamentals and social skills. Our caring teachers keep small hands busy and young minds engaged through activities designed specifically for this age group.

Children at this age are curious about the world around them.

  • Daily small-group instruction which promotes skill development
  • The perfect balance of nurturing, learning and playtime
  • An environment focused on the development of the whole child
  • A variety of activities that support learning concepts for this age group
  • Encouragement and support that lead to confidence, self-esteem and a love of learning

Your child will build skills and confidence through games, songs, movement and art, as experienced teachers provide an outlet for creative expression. By encouraging child-directed play, we ensure that your child develops at his or her own pace. Sharing, cooperating and taking turns helps teach your child the importance of being a team player.
