Twos learn with and from each other, model after parents and preschool teachers and develop their skills very quickly with guidance and close attention from caregivers during day.

Two-year-olds are in the amazing space of journeying out of toddlerhood and wanting so badly to be a big kid, yet not quite ready to take on the badge of all things three.

They want independence.but still need a hug from Mommy and Daddy.A patient daycare teacher is essential and must take a step back and assess the child and the group continually asking, “Is this a successful activity?”, and, “How can I adapt this to meet all my student’s needs?” This leads to frustration, particularly since language development is emerging continually. Little Saplings love to roam, climb, run and although they are optimistic about their skills, many times don’t fully have the gross or fine motor muscles and eye hand coordination to succeed right away.They taste, smell and touch just about everything, so our preschool teachers are extra diligent about safety in our Little Saplings daycare classrooms. Little Saplings are tactile learners and engage all the senses more than any other age group. This age group, particularly in a group setting, requires enormous patience, a calm and steady temperament and lots of activities ready to go! Successful Little Saplings childcare teachers are flexible- well planned lessons must be shortened or lengthened at a moments notice.They learn very quickly and are beginning to see themselves as separate from their parents and their peers as potential playmates. Little Saplings (2 years- 3 years old) are typically “into everything” and move at the speed of lightening! They are curious, emotional and demanding and their highs and lows are exhausting for parents and daycare teachers.

There is probably no cuter stage, nor more challenging group than our lovable, engaging and passionate Little Saplings. Schedule a Tour Enroll Meet Your Little Sapling Children MUST be potty trained before entering the next class. Learning Tree Preschool staff is well trained in this area and works closely with parents to help their child reach this important goal. Another big milestone of this year is potty training. Greater independence emerges at this age and children are given opportunities to explore and learn with little interference. Circle time and preschool teacher led activities also become a larger part of the preschool daily schedule. Our older toddler childcare classroom allows children more opportunity for growth and development though the use of activity centers and structured playtime.
