MONTESSORI TODDLER PROGRAM
​
Our toddler program is designed for children who will turn 2 years old by December 1st of the year they enroll. We focus on children gaining independence and self confidence in a prepared environment designed to meet their developmental needs. We have a Half day option from 9:00-12:00pm or the Full Day option that runs from 9am-3pm.
Our toddler program focuses on respect for the child and developing self confidence. Through exploration and a strong focus on sensory experiences children gain independence and pride in themselves as they become active participants in their classroom environment.
​
The little child’s first movements were instinctive. Now, he acts consciously and voluntarily, and with this comes an awakening of his spirit…. Conscious will is a power which develops with use and activity. We must aim at cultivating the will…. Its development is a slow process that evolves through a continuous activity in relationship with the environment.
Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind, p. 231
