Approximately 14–16 Months to Under 3 Years
Growing Independence, Confidence, and Curiosity
Toddlers are naturally curious, active learners who discover the world through movement, exploration and play. At Little Builders Preschool & Daycare, our toddler program supports this important developmental stage in a nurturing, engaging environment. We encourage children to explore their surroundings, express themselves, develop independence and build meaningful relationships.
Schedule a Tour
Children may transition into our Toddler Program at approximately 14–16 months of age, depending on their individual developmental stage and readiness. Our toddler program serves children until approximately 3 years of age, when they may transition into our Preschool Program.
Learning Through Hands-On Experiences
Sensory bins and tactile exploration
Pouring, scooping and feeling different materials build sensory awareness and early science thinking.
Building blocks and construction
Stacking, balancing and building strengthen fine motor skills, spatial thinking and problem-solving.
Music, movement and dancing
Songs and dancing develop coordination, rhythm and language while letting busy bodies move joyfully.
Arts and crafts
Crayons, paint and glue give toddlers creative ways to express themselves and practice early fine-motor skills.
Storytime and picture books
Daily stories grow vocabulary, attention and a love of reading from the very start.
Early counting, shapes and colors
Playful games introduce numbers, shapes and colors in ways that feel like fun, not drills.
Outdoor exploration and active play
Climbing, running and outdoor discovery build strong bodies and confident movers.
Practical life skills and self-help routines
Toddlers practice dressing, hand-washing and tidying up, gaining independence one small win at a time.
Cooperative play and early social interaction
Playing alongside friends teaches sharing, turn-taking and the first steps of friendship.
Supporting social and emotional development: during the toddler years, children begin learning to express feelings, interact with peers and develop self-control. Our teachers provide gentle guidance as children practice sharing and taking turns, expressing emotions, making simple choices, following routines, developing independence, building positive friendships and beginning problem-solving skills.
Every question, every discovery, and every new word builds confidence for tomorrow.

Spanish Immersion Through Everyday Activities
Toddlers are introduced to Spanish through engaging, meaningful daily experiences. Teachers incorporate Spanish into songs, storytelling, greetings, games, classroom routines and play.
By hearing and using words in familiar situations, children have opportunities to develop early language awareness, listening skills and communication confidence.
