At Northeast Stars, we welcome toddlers into a warm, secure, positive, and challenging environment where they can comfortably begin to explore the world.
Our Toddlers are 24-36 months.
According to research, our earliest experiences and interactions establish emotional health and our ability to learn.
The teachers at NES use the highly acclaimed Montessori method creating an environment that promotes development in problem-solving, self-directed responsibility, and concentration to deal with positive experiences as well as frustrations in navigating independence.
The toddler classroom focuses on several key developmental areas:
Practical life—including care of person and bathroom independence
Functional independence—completion of work cycles
Grace and courtesy—living in community with others
Language—enrichment and extension
Socialization—beginnings of social membership
Movement exploration—large and refined motor skills
Every toddler will engage in many activities to support sensory and perpetual development, self-help skills, physical and motor skills, and social and emotional growth such as:
Pouring, sweeping, dusting, and table setting
Buttoning and zipping
Knobbed puzzles and bead stringing
Music and singing
Nature walks
