Child Development Center
Two-year-olds are constantly in motion and use their natural curiosity for hands-on discovery. Two’s need a rich learning environment that develops self-regulation and cognitive skills and that expands their vocabulary.
2-Year-Old Program
Our student teacher ratio within the 2 year old program is 7:1 with a class size of 12 to 14 and 2 teachers. This allows teachers to involve themselves more productively with each child. By this stage in their development, routines and schedules become a big part of the child's day and promote stability and security.
Potty training is a familiar theme with parents of a 2 year old. With this in mind, the CDC staff will partner with the parent/s to help reinforce efforts being taken at home to potty train their child. Keeping in mind that one of the criteria to enter the 3 year old program is to be 100% potty-trained.
The Creative Curriculum serves as the framework for conducting the CDC 2 year old program. Learning Environment Centers are introduced in the 2 year old classroom and include: bible time, circle time, dramatic play, art center, blocks, small motor skills, music, and book/literacy area. Every child will participate in activities that are socially, physically, intellectually and psychologically age appropriate. Children learn by doing and through exploration and play. Our skilled teachers are adept at turning play time into learning activities. New items are periodically introduced to facilitate a better understanding of the classroom's weekly focus.
Extra curricular activities include but are not limited to Chapel, gym time, music sessions, story time sessions, science/discovery classes, and a second language program.
