Children in this room are just learning how to socialize and do not quite have the understanding of 'sharing' as yet.  Parallel play is the first stage that the toddler group engages in where they will play alongside one another but not together.  As they grow, they will learn to play cooperatively with direction and interactions from the teachers.

Children in the toddler room are learning so much and are in a very busy room that they sometimes become frustrated in their play with each other. The amazing teachers are there to assist them in problem-solving skills and give them the words that they are unable to express.  The teachers take time to teach them sign language as well for those that have not learned the language. This helps lighten the frustration and helps them to communicate with each other. As the children grow, they will acquire many new skills including self-help skills in which they will be able to feed and dress themselves, help in tidying up as well as toileting and potty training. Toddlers are constantly learning which can be seen on a daily basis within this very adaptable and engaging program.
