Twos Program in Michigan

1.5 - 2.5 years old

We provide hugs, guidance, and encouragement to help children develop a greater sense of independence while exploring the world around them. Circle Time is a daily large group experience packed with fun educational activities, reading, finger-plays, engaging games, and conversations. We also encourage parents to let us know when they feel their child is ready for potty training. Working collaboratively provides each child with a positive experience.

In the Twos classroom, we focus on:

Social-emotional development, self-help skills, and learning about behavior

Sensorial learning in a stimulating environment and plenty of time to explore

Creative activities using paints, crayons, play dough, as well as dramatic play

Circle Time

During this daily large group interaction, children enjoy songs, reading, finger-plays, engaging games, and conversations. While circle time is brief with this age group, it is packed with fun, educational activities such as alphabet, number, shape, and color introduction.

Learning Center Activities

Starting in the Twos Room, we make use of separate, learning domain focused centers to introduce the structure they will experience in our preschool program. Socially, we will support your toddler as they learn that different behavior is appropriate in different settings.

Exploring with the Senses

Sensorial learning is encouraged through a stimulating environment and time to explore. Days are filled with opportunities to develop creativity using paints, crayons, and play dough. Dramatic play performances such as playing house and dressing up further expand imagination.

Potty Training Program

We make potty training a positive experience with an approach that is both exciting for your child and easy to use at home. We promote healthy choices and good hygiene through certificates, cards, and encouragement, throughout the potty training process.

We encourage parents to inform us when they feel their son or daughter is ready to begin. Our Toddler Room teachers know working collaboratively with parents will help us provide each child with fundamentals needed for success.
