Toddlers

12 months - 24 months
Toddlers

Our daily routine and lesson plans are constructed with each child’s development and comfort level in mind. Brighter Beginnings Child Development Center staff will work at each toddler's individual pace to ensure progress and productivity. There will be instruction, activities, and play sessions geared for both group participation and independent learning.

As children adapt and become comfortable with their environment, they endure greater independence and higher-level learning. While our staff monitors development and introduces new activities, we do so with a strong affection and constant reminder that parents entrust us to act with kindness, comfort, and positive reinforcement.

Brighter Beginnings currently has a waitlist in place for ALL classrooms at both locations so it is a good idea to tour our facilities early to ensure we have a space for your child when you need it. To be added to our waitlist please email us at brighterbeginningscdc@gmail.com.

Food for Toddlers

Brighter Beginnings will offer breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon and evening snack each day. The menu will include healthy food choices that are approved by MS Department of Health. If your child has a food allergy, please provide us with an allergy form from their pediatrician. Menus will be rotated every two to three weeks and will be posted at the parent info center and on our website. Per MS Department of Health Regulations, outside food for children may not be brought into center, except in cases of extreme allergies. Outside food is only allowed for birthday celebrations or other school parties. We will only accept store bought food.

Quiet Time/Naps

12 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.

Activities & Learning

The daily schedule consists of naptime, feeding, fine arts, physical activity, and educational lessons with books, puzzles, and age-appropriate toys. We encourage social interaction at our Circle Time as we learn to play, sing, and participate with one another.

Toddlers will begin working with the alphabet, numbers, and other important age-appropriate skills. As a group, we will partake in activities that influence social cooperation, cognitive learning, emotional and physical behavior. Individual lessons will also help children learn and play on their own. Potty training assistance is also provided for our older toddlers.

Dress Code

Children should dress in appropriate clothing for learning and play, as well as closed toe shoes with no shoe laces, Velcro is preferred.
* No overalls (ages 3 and up) because the straps can fall in the toilet.
* Shorts or bloomers must be worn under dresses or skirts.
