Tots' Programs
We help children with the developmental tasks of separating from home, sharing, taking turns and respecting others. Learning occurs through activities that involve as many of the five senses as possible, from banging on instruments to building with blocks and playing with sand. We also begin developing number and letter recognition through thoughtful play-based activities.
The children explore cooperation, leadership, numeracy, literacy & the ability to make choices, while making use of art supplies, our Nature Corner, fun toys and music.
Tots’ afternoon Pre-K program prepares children academically and socially for a smooth transition into Kindergarten. Lessons focus on writing the letters A-Z (capital and lowercase), writing the numbers 1-10, the calendar (names of days and months), perception and developing observation skills, understanding opposites, sequence comprehension (patterns and relationships), character education (positive values and attitude development), and health (body awareness). Tots’ offers a hands-on curriculum that gets the kids excited to learn – giving them the foundation to be lifelong learners.
