Creative Kids 2’s - The First Year*

Creative Kids 2’s is designed for two-year-olds who are attending school for the very first time. The program offers a gentle welcoming to school and a breadth of activities that provide children with new and wondrous experiences. With a 5:1 student teacher ratio, the children are encouraged to explore the world around them through both free play and teacher-guided activities. We nurture each child’s social and emotional development by encouraging autonomy, communication, and smooth transitions from one activity to another. We work toward building positive self-esteem in children by assisting the development of their physical and cognitive skills.

At Creative Kids 2’s, children enjoy a warm and loving atmosphere that was created with their special needs in mind. Children may attend one, two, three or five days per week.
