Toddler Program
Welcome to Color My World’s toddler program where active minds and busy fingers can explore and discover the exciting world around them. We encourage the natural curiosity of our little learners and provide activities and experiences that will strengthen their developing skills. Our teachers provide a language rich environment that nourishes the development of communication skills. The toddler environment is designed to be safe and challenging to allow the children to experience success while learning independence and problem solving skills. Toddlers love to be active and on the go, but we always make time for quiet activities such as, reading a book, doing finger plays, listening to music or just cuddling in the rocking chair. Sharing and caring for our friends is a work in progress in our toddler room and we spend a great deal of time building beginning social skills. There is never a dull moment in our toddler room and that is the way we like it!!
