1 YEAR OLDS

At Scholars Tech we concentrate on the developmental goals of this age as well as 

emphasize safety and security with a loving and caring staff. Our environment is 

specially designed so children can explore and play together as they begin their 

understanding of socially appropriate behavior. At this precious age, toddlers’ little minds 

are a sponge for learning opportunities. Your toddler might seem to be unconcerned with 

 

 

life’s daily events, but that’s not quite the case. The fact is, toddlers are busy little people 

who love to climb, explore, build, and create. They are learning to master their bodies by 

walking, running, stooping, climbing, throwing, and jumping. Our well-trained and 

nurturing staff will encourage and allow your toddler to make these new discoveries in a 

safe environment. 

 We engage our toddlers in playing with toys, imitating, and pretending, enjoying stories 

and books, connecting with music and movement, the use of technology, creating with 

art, tasting and preparing food, exploring sand and water, and going outdoors.   

 

Any object that young children can explore, put together, take apart, push, pull, stack, and 

create becomes a toy in a child’s hands.  Toys teach skills while at the same time children 

are playing and having fun.  While playing with materials, children learn about size, 

shape and sequence, problem solving, cause and effect, balance, eye hand coordination 

and social skills.  

 

Developmental Goals 

 

• To encourage body expressions and control 

• To develop concrete thinking skills 

• To promote social play 

• To encourage and develop language skills 

• To develop a sense of emotional security 

 

Our educators are committed to broadening and deepening your child’s experience by 

providing opportunities for new challenges as well as familiar activities that the child can 

master in all areas of development:  motor, cognitive, perceptual, social, emotional, 

language and expressive capabilities.  We like to promote a sense of positive self-esteem 

and self-confidence as a competent, capable, active learner and member of a family and 

community.   

 

Our specially trained teachers use our curriculum to promote those understandings, 

dispositions, and skills that lead to success in future schooling.
