Toddlers: 12 - 18 Months
Valuable Interactions
The MightyKidz Toddler Program is designed to be an interactive experience between the classroom, the teacher, and the children. Toddlers learn through sensory experiences that enhance their cognitive, language, motor and social skills.
The Group Experience
Toddler teachers create a daily schedule to establish a consistent routine for the whole class. Daily activities and curriculum are organized to foster growth in every aspect of the child. Teachers are active participants in group play, giving guidance on social and emotional awareness.
Curriculum for the Individual Child
Toddlers learn self-expression through new vocabulary and planned activities. Their growing independence is encouraged through adaptive skills, such as washing hands, potty training, and putting on shoes and jackets. Toddlers begin to develop their sense of self within the community through active involvement and daily exploration around Seattle.
Music & Movement
MightyKidz Toddler classrooms are fully equipped with a customized Musically Minded Curriculum to keep up with the toddlers’ growing curiosity as well as their naturally short attention spans. Toddler children are ready to hit the ground running and seek out learning opportunities through songs, instruments, musical stories and nursery rhymes combined with lots and lots of movement!

What to Expect
Toddler Development
Your child is ready for a toddler room when he/she is napping once per day, crawling or walking, and is ready to be on our Mighty Menu
Outdoor play is essential for growing bodies! We bring strollers in case our walkers need rest during long journeys, but short trips give us opportunities to practice rope walks as a group.
Teachers take ownership over their classrooms, and they tailor their classroom environments and lesson plans to match the needs and interests of the children
Routine helps every child adjust to the new schedule of a toddler room. At nap-time, children know that lunch is finished, so teachers are setting out cots. Some children immediately find their lovey and fall asleep, others need back-rubbing and peaceful music
