Daily Schedule

Toddlers in this age group thrive with a balance of structured routines and opportunities for independence. Their days are filled with hands-on exploration, music, movement, and outdoor play. Educators support their growing need for autonomy by encouraging self-help skills during mealtimes, toileting, and dressing. Gentle transitions and familiar routines help them feel secure as they develop social and emotional awareness.
