This program is designed for exploration. Our toddlers love to explore and we provide a safe, loving, fun, and educational environment for them to do so. We provide age-appropriate toys, sensory exploration, and lots of pretend play in this nurturing environment. Circle time introduces your little one to lots of new songs, stories, and music & movement fun. Children will gain a sense of independence and form social relationships. They will continue to develop their language and communication skills and increase their self-awareness.

Allergies
Due to our schools being Allergy Aware and the Ministry requirements, no home-baked goods are to be brought to school. The school provides healthy, well balanced snacks on a daily basis. We are nut free and allergy aware.
What's Your Line?
If any parents have an area of expertise or a cultural tradition which they'd like to share with the children in any format (talk, visual display, etc.) please speak with the Supervisor. It is exciting for the children to have a "real" artist, musician, nurse, doctor, police officer, etc. at their school.
