Toddlers

Planting Seeds
Toddlers enjoy learning about the growing world in many ways. One activity they love to do is plant seeds every Spring. They also love talking about what plants need to grow and how they can work together to care for another living thing.
Smelling the Flowers
On their weekly nature walks, toddlers love to stop any chance they get to count bugs, pick up unique sticks/rocks, and of course, smell the flowers! This teaches them how to interact with their world all while growing their social-emotional skills!
Exploring the Pond
Much like all classrooms, the toddlers explore our nearby pond under direct supervision to learn about other animals and their babies. Our students love going on nature walks to the pond to discover new creatures and to even throw rocks!
