TODDLER CARE
ENROLLING Full Day & Half day
Discovery Village Academy
Toddler and Jr Pre-School
(15 months to 36 months)
The world of toddlers (15 months to 36 months) is magical. The immense brain development that occurs at this stage transforms once quiet toddlers into talkative moving machines! During this stage children begin to combine words to express themselves. Within one year they will transition from two word combinations to speaking in full sentences enabling them to express their ideas, interests, and needs. Research suggests that children this age acquire between two to eight new vocabulary words each day! Our classes are structured around weekly themes to expose children to new ideas, vocabulary, and sensory experiences. The integration of exploration and play, paired with an introduction to pre-academic skills, provides a strong foundation for curiosity and love of learning.
