Toddler Academy
Your Child's First Pre-School
Ages: 22 months - 4 years old

Contrary to a day care, Jungle Gym’s Toddler Academy is an educational-based program with all of our activities geared toward your child’s healthy development. Our low teacher-child ratio allows us to give your child special attention and focus on his/her individual needs. We work on gross motor skills, arts and crafts, reading, writing skills, music, sensory stimulation, and much more! Our emphasis is on the development of skills that will give your child a solid foundation in emotional, physical and intellectual growth. We work on positive self-esteem, confidence, creativity and imagination, and the desire to learn.
 

All our activities have specific purposes. We sing songs that give children a sense of identity. We sing fun educational songs that teach them. We sing and play with instruments while promoting body movement, rhythm, coordination and balance. During our play time, we work on gross motor skills, physical development, social skills, self esteem and safety awareness.
 

We learn the importance of hygiene and personal care, and develop healthy habits. We learn to relax and pay attention while we let our imagination run during story time. We learn to focus on objects’ properties and characteristics, analyze, compare and identify. We explore in the sensory room. We learn colors, numbers, letters, and more; we exercise our creativity and imagination with hands-on arts and crafts projects; we learn to follow direction and pay attention; and we learn about cause and consequence effect.
 
Our program focuses on nourishment and closeness. We value the importance of a healthy self esteem, safety, social skills, discipline, order, following directions and attention development. We want children to view school as a positive experience; we want them to feel school is good. That’s why Jungle Gym's Toddler Academy provides young children with a unique educational learning experience that will prepare them for their following school years and make the transition much easier.
