Morning Star Toddler Program focuses on the most vital stage of your child’s life: the beginning. Our program encourages individuality, creativity and a love of learning. We encourage self discipline in an environment rich in motivation and activities. The social interaction develops awareness of self and others through work and play.
Using sensorial materials and group activities, this age group will incorporate basic Montessori teachings with practical life skills. Music, beginning art, puppetry and nature studies will also be offered.
As Toddlers need consistency and a sense of belonging to truly thrive, we require a minimum two day enrollment for this program. We have found that those toddlers attending only one day a week have a more difficult time making the adjustment from mom and dad to teachers and friends. Toddlers will be given a snack, which is provided by the parents on a rotating basis. Parents are also asked to pack their child a nutritious lunch, diapers (if needed) and an extra set of clothes.
