Toddlers Program

Toddlers Program

Curriculum for toddlers involves activity centers that change with the projects.  Because toddlers tend to be immersed in the immediate moment and in the process rather than the product of their activity, teachers, when developing curriculum, tend to put little emphasis on long‐range planning and on developing extensive connections between different activities. Yet short‐term projects are becoming recognized as an important way to engage toddlers.  Teachers give the children a concrete boost to learning. Toddlers, children’s drawings, paintings, and constructions are made into classroom displays or books and posted around the room. Our teachers plan and implement a developmentally appropriate program, building positive relationships with young children, and supporting young children’s learning in all areas.  Working with toddlers is an important job, one that will influence children’s lifelong learning. With a developmentally appropriate program, Beanstalk toddlers build positive relationships with their peers, develop their vocabulary skills, and learn how to cooperate within a group. Our toddlers quickly develop into confident preschoolers, ready to tackle a more vigorous curriculum, where they learn at a faster pace while having a great time.
