At the Toddler level (Ages 1 .5 - 2 years)
This is a huge market that remains unattended. The
toddler stage is very important in a child's life. It is the time
between infancy and childhood when a child learns and grows in many
ways. Everything that happens to the toddler is meaningful. With
each stage or skill the child masters, a new stage begins. This
growth is different for each child. Children have their own
timetable.
During the
toddler stage, most children learn to walk, talk, solve problems,
relate to others, and more. One major task for the toddler is to
learn to be independent. That is why toddlers want to do things for
themselves, have their own ideas about how things should happen, and
use "NO" many times each day.
The toddler stage is characterized by much growth and change, mood
swings and some negativity. Toddlers are long on will and short on
skill. This is why they are often frustrated and "misbehave.
Toddlers bursting with energy and ideas need to explore their
environment. You need to make sure that they can explore in an
environment that is safe for them. They want to be independent, and
yet, they are still very dependent.
Toddlers are very concerned with their own needs and ideas. This is
why we cannot expect them to share. Toddlers sometimes get
frustrated because they do not have the language skills to express
themselves. Often they have difficulty separating themselves from
their parents and so this is an ideal place where a parent would
like to leave their little naughty ones so that we can take care of

Social
Skill Development. |

All parents want their children to
socialize and amalgamate. To enrich their brains with different
culture and taste. We know a toddler at home will remain a ‘Mamas
Boy’ but will have difficulty in catching up with the fast advanced
technology of education that begins at the age of 2years. If 2yrs is
the expected age when a child starts learning, (1.5 yrs – 2yrs) is
the right age for her to know and accept that there is another world
which too is his very own, where she is very comfortable and that is
her school. |

Motor
Co-ordination. Whether they bang or they rock, they will
be inspired and encouraged to use their organs extensively to ensure
complete motor co-ordination. For children this young, the type of
daily physical activity matters little, It should be fun for the
child - anything from climbing on a toy to chasing a friend,
bouncing a ball or riding a tricycle. |
