Toddlers
the toddlers care program at Les Petits Angels
Early childhood development is critically important. At Les Petits Angels, our experienced teacher, Hanene and staff help facilitate this period of learning.
With our New Beginnings program, your child will be paired with a primary teacher who will provide personalized attention and nurture them through every milestone—within a caring and cohesive community.
Explore the toddler classroom
Here’s how we set up our classroom for busy toddlers. It’s organized for their age and stage of learning and development.
- Kids eye level: There’s something special about the toddler classroom: Everything is kid-size! We put books and toys within easy reach of little hands. Instead of waiting for an adult to bring a book over, kids can kick off story time all on their own.
- Photos and labels: In our classrooms, photos and visual cues are everywhere. We always hang pictures of our children’s families to help build our sense of community. Labels—especially visual ones—help your toddler navigate the room and the day in a safe and confident way.
Toddlers program
Making art, stacking blocks, reading books—no matter what your toddler loves to do or where they are developmentally, we’ll help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.
Building brain power and strong bodies
Activities like sorting, counting, and measuring things help budding brains grasp science and math concepts. We build their focus and memory with simple daily routines. Teachers also support physical skills like learning to walk or roll a ball.
Learning about feelings and how we express them
At this age, relationships with classmates and teachers begin to form. We use social and emotional skill-building tools like feelings magnets and puppets to help them learn about their own feelings, and notice the feelings of others.
Talking more and more
Toddlers build their vocabulary one or two words at a time by pointing to things and expressing needs. They also engage in prewriting and prereading by scribbling on paper and turning pages in books.
Expressing themselves
Creatively, toddlers express themselves with mediums like clay, and movement and dance to simple children’s songs.
Signature practices
Every day, our creative teacher, Hanene guides toddlers through fun activities that are just right for their age. Here are just a few examples!
- Homes for Animals: Kids create homes and habitats for stuffed animals with blocks. This helps them practice building, problem-solving, and playing pretend.
- Car Tracks: Kids take toy cars dipped in non-toxic paint and roll them over paper to create different patterns and textures.
- Digging in the Dirt: Getting a little messy means learning is happening! Kids use garden tools to dig in soil and explore seeds, plants, and flowers.
