Toddler Program

The main work of the toddler is to practice independence. Toddlers explore action and reaction as they strive for autonomy. They refine their motor skills as they work to walk and then run. Cognitively, they become more aware of patterns and order of operations. In social situations, they practice interaction, impulse control and begin to understand pretend play.

Here at Springboard Schools we understand that the toddler years are a vibrant time seeing huge leaps in physical, cognitive and motor growth. Springboard provides a toddler-friendly learning environment that encourages exploration and self-care.
