1 year to 3 years
Kidzone toddler rooms provide a fun
and flexible environment that supports every child's need for a balanced
day of stimulating activity, quiet time, small group
interactions, free-play and independent exploration. A variety of Learning
Centers encourage toddlers to find and use the materials, toys and
equipment that spark their interest.
- Kidzone toddler rooms are designed with special Learning Centers that
help every child grow and learn in his or her own way, through
self-motivated, informal play.
- A Home living/Dramatic Play Area for role playing
and pretending
- A Blocks/Manipulative Area for exploring
physical relationships and developing coordination and dexterity
- A Motor Area for climbing and enhancing large
muscle strength and agility
- A Sensory Area for exploring the world around
them
- Through fun activities and
gentle guidance, our toddler teachers create a nurturing environment that
stimulates learning in a calm and reassuring way. They know when to stand
back and let your child explore, when to lend a hand, and how to use
short, informal activities to encourage social development and
friendships.
- Our toddler rooms reflect years of
experience in providing children with a safe, healthy and enriching
environment. Everything from toy selection to crib construction, from room
layout to food preparation, is designed to ensure the safety and
well-being of your child.
- Teachers interact with
the children as they go about their day, cheering their successes and
discussing what they learned. As relationships grow, so will your child's
language skills and confidence.
- Changing tables and
toilets are accessible in all toddler rooms, so we can accommodate your
child's needs and your preferences. We'll follow your lead in deciding the
appropriate timing, and we'll work with you to coordinate our efforts with
yours.
- Learning self-control is
just a normal part of growing up, so Kidzone policy is never to embarrass
or ridicule a child when they misbehave. Nor do we allow the use of
corporal or physical punishment. Instead, we use positive tactics that
strengthen self-esteem. Most situations can be handled by redirecting the
child to another, more appropriate activity.
- We'll check in
with you every day when you drop off and pick up your child. You'll also
get a copy of your child's daily report, a personal record of your baby's day at
Kidzone.
