The toddler program at Discovery World Montessori provides
continuation in the care of children from infancy thru toddlerhood.
This program combines the social interaction of the infant room along with
the development of sensory skills that coincide with the Montessori Materials used at this stage.
Our loving
staff provide our toddlers with a nurturing envioronment essential to
their proper growth and development. Each day the toddlers are provided
with countless opportunities to stimulate their development. We strive
to provide activities in the areas of physical, social, emotional,
cognitive and creative growth. The children spend time each day engaged
in quality activities that are specially designed, through the
Montessori Method, by our qualified staff. The children participate in
art activities each day. The focus of these art activities is on the
process of art. The children spend time outdoors each day and are
encouraged to participate in many fun large motor
activities. The toddlers are provided with many walking and riding toys
as well as a play structure that provides a safe environment for
climbing, balance and coordination.
Our
indoor activities include materials that provide opportunity for the
development of the child’s small motor skills. Children use spoons,
scoops, tongs, and their hands for grasping and transferring small
objects. They participate in these activities with great enthusiasm
because it is very interesting and fun for them. What they don’t know
is that while they are having fun, they are also developing a
suppleness in the wrist and a strength in the small muscles of their
hand that will help them when they begin writing at a later age. Our
trained staff carefully monitors each detail of the curriculum. Each
day you will receive a detailed report of your child’s activities for
the day. |
