Your two-year-old is becoming more verbal, continuing to explore more things around them and beginning to develop social skills. A balanced routine and flexibility is important at this age as your child’s developmental needs are different from their peers. Our learning curriculum is designed to stimulate the whole child through experiences in  math, science, language, drama, technology, and music. Language development is rapid at this age, so we also take this opportunity to help increase their vocabulary.  Children in this age group are filled with energy and curiosity about the world and a new sense of increasing independence. Two's are highly energetic and interested in objects and  people. They're undergoing rapid development in many areas, and eager for attention to help them learn and understand basic things about how the world works.  

 

Educators at Scholars Tech understands that the two-year-old’s environment should be less structured and the schedule more flexible. However, we offer children a secure, loving environment, with an established routine and flexible schedule. Weekly themes are introduced whic incorporate the developmental goals of the curriculum.  The daily routines of saying hello and goodbye, preparing and eating food, napping, diapering and toileting, and dressing occupy a significant part of a 2-year-olds day. Routines are themselves learning opportunities, rather than events to be "gotten through." 

 

This age group need plenty of space for free play. Like preschoolers, they like to have choices, but they can only handle a limited number. Moreover, they do better with fewer planned activities at set times. Our educators take their cues from the children, observing how the children explore interesting materials. Because most twos are not yet ready to share toys and equipment, you will see duplicates of popular toys rather than a great variety. Two-year-old’s like to stick together and may not want to break up into different activity groups, but rather all use similar materials at the same time.  You will find confidence that the teachers at Scholars Tech identifies with your two-year-old!
