Daily Activities
Older toddlers insist on trying and learning tasks by themselves and they want control over their environment. They also have a growing interest in books, art, and toys. Our 2 ½-year-old room addresses this stage of development by offering older toddlers more opportunities for independence and self-reliance. A stepping stool at the sink or a coat hook within reach, allows them to try and do things themselves. Each day your child will have the opportunity to pick their own activities and may play by themselves or with others. Your child’s schedule will include frequent potty breaks that encourage them to use the toilet if they are showing interest in potty training.
Curriculum
Because older toddlers develop a strong sense of self-identity, our teachers make room for their participation when telling, singing, or reciting stories and songs. They also begin to make comparisons between themselves and other kids. That is why it is important for them to interact with other toddlers of diverse culture, ethnicity, and abilities. Your child’s teacher will do more matching and sorting games to help them identify similarities and differences in people and things around them
