The studio toddlers had a fantastic February.  We focused on the color pink and heart shape in honor of Valentine’s Day.  Pink hearts were repeated during games, finger plays, crafts, sensory bins, songs, stories, and more.  The toddlers practiced fine motor skills making love bug hats, lacing hearts, and  painting bags during our Valentine’s Day party.  We also incorporated purposeful play throughout our study of space.  The toddlers loved dressing up as astronauts, blasting off rockets, an astronaut obstacle course, stamping letters to spell their names on rocke ..read more

Happy New Year from the studio toddler room!  The weather has kept us busy indoors this month but we have filled our days with crafts, discovery bins, winter centers, stories, dancing, and learning through play.  Our color focus is white and our shape is the triangle so we incorporated these focus targets into most of our centers, small groups, whole group and purposeful play.     ..read more

The studio toddler class has taken the month of September to explore our environment, learn routines, and adjust to being away from parents for the first time but it is also a time of socialization and making new friends.  Socializing with other children  is an excellent way to foster a toddler’s social and emotional development.  We set up our environment for purposeful play and social experiences.  Children begin to mimic during parallel play and then start to communicate with peers. They learn vocabulary and appropriate ways to express themselves through pretend play, fr ..read more

Our little learners reviewed all of the shapes they’ve learned throughout the year with some hands on shape activities. One was finding the bug hiding under the shapes. They had to pick the shape I asked them to find and see if the bug was hiding underneath it! They also matched shapes to the underwater animal puzzles. We finished off with a shape collage. We glued each shape one by one as a group.                       We finished off our alphabet with some letter Z activities. Zoo is for Zoo animals–washing zoo animals! We also ..read more
