Caterpillars (2 yrs - 3 yrs)

Children of this age group are more sociable and willing to conform. For these
we provide small “circle-time” lessons to develop cooperation through group
activities. At the same time, we will use our well-developed learning centers
as an aid in directing their interest and curiosity. Qualified and trained staff will
use the children's imagination and creativity to develop their knowledge and
guide them in the learning process. They will be introduced to the letters of the
alphabet, beginning phonics, counting, number recognition, calendar, and pre-
writing and pre-math skills. Fine motor skills will be developed through
coloring, painting, pasting, simple cutting and writing exercises. Gross motor
skills will be developed through our “kid's fitness” program in our well-
stocked, indoor “Town Square” and outdoor play area. They will experience a
wide variety of both quiet and active play groups. This class will prove to be a
valuable experience in the growth and development of your child.

A child at this age is becoming aware of himself as an individual and enjoys
doing things independently. Potty training will be introduced in this classroom.
We will provide creative and inviting learning centers where the highly trained
staff will direct your child's curiosity to a learning experience. Each week a
theme will be introduced. The staff will help your child learn through exploring,
while being mindful of their limited attention span. We will introduce the
concept of taking turns and will do small cooperative building activities to
increase their social growth. Recognizing a child's need for constant
supervision, we maintain a low caregiver to child ratio. Your child's
development will be greatly enhanced through this program.
