Two-Year-Olds

At A Shining Star Learning Center, our 2-year-old rooms are designed for the
active child discovering and learning through our play-based curriculum.
Planned activities focus on problem solving, language, physical and social/
emotional skill building.

Two-year-old rooms have a wide variety age of appropriate toys and equipment
to dramatically recreate the world around them. An outside playground area,
designed just for the 2-year-olds, is a fun place to play. On rainy or cold days,
the 2-year-olds enjoy playing in the indoor gym.

The 2-year-old rooms are adjoined by a restroom equipped with child sized sinks
and toilets to aid in teaching self-help skills of handwashing and toilet training.
Potty training gets plenty of attention in these classrooms, while the staff works
closely with the parents as a team to help the children achieve and maintain
this milestone. Other self-help skills encouraged in the 2-year-old rooms are
drinking from a cup without a lid and feeding themselves with eating utensils.
The children sleep on cots during afternoon naptime.
