18 Months to 2 Years
Encouraging Every
Wiggle & Word
Welcome to the most curious stage of early childhood! Our toddler program is all about exploration, discovery, and building confidence. At this age, children are developing their senses, motor skills, and language at a rapid pace—and we’re here to guide them every step of the way.
Through hands-on activities, music, movement, and interactive play, toddlers learn to express themselves, connect with others, and make sense of the world around them in a safe, nurturing environment. Every day is a new adventure filled with wonder, learning, and lots of giggles!
Shapes, Colors & Numbers
We turn everyday lessons into magical moments. Your child will be introduced to shapes, colors, and numbers through music, movement, art, and stories that spark their imagination and curiosity. These aren’t just lessons—they’re building blocks for understanding the world around them.
Along the way, we help children develop fine motor skills by encouraging coloring, drawing, and other creative expressions that build hand-eye coordination and early writing readiness. Our goal is to spark curiosity and lay a strong foundation for future math and literacy skills—while keeping those little hands busy and engaged.
Basic Manners & Respect
We believe that kindness, courtesy, and respect are just as important as ABCs and 123s. During these early years, children are forming habits that will shape how they interact with others for a lifetime.
Our qualified and compassionate staff place a strong emphasis on teaching basic manners—like saying “please” and “thank you,” taking turns, listening when others speak, and using kind words. We gently guide children to understand the importance of treating others the way they would like to be treated, Helping them build empathy and social awareness. These simple yet powerful lessons are woven into our daily routines, interactions, and group activities
Psychological Development
Early childhood is a critical time for emotional and psychological growth. That’s why we provide a nurturing environment where children can begin to understand themselves and the world around them.
Through play, guided activities, and positive social interactions, your child will learn how to manage emotions, build friendships, resolve conflicts, and develop a strong sense of self. Our experienced staff supports each child in channeling their emotional and intellectual energy in healthy, productive ways—laying the foundation for self-confidence, resilience, and lifelong emotional intelligence
This Is The Age Of Discovery!
At this exciting age, toddlers are on the move and eager to learn! Our nurturing teachers guide them through early language, motor, and social development with activities that make learning fun and meaningful.
From stacking blocks to saying new words, we celebrate every step of your toddler’s journey. Our curriculum blends creativity and care, helping your little one grow emotionally, socially, and cognitively every single day.
At Starlight Scholars Academy, toddlers are given the freedom to explore with the reassurance of patient, loving guidance. Every day is filled with new experiences that help them discover how capable they really are.
Tiny Steps Toward Bilingual Brilliance
¡Hola! to New Words and Big Milestones
By tapping into your child’s natural curiosity, our dedicated teaching staff creates a learning experience that feels like play. In our Spanish immersion program, children ages 2 to 3 are introduced to a second language in a fun, engaging, and developmentally appropriate way.
Through songs, stories, hands-on activities, and simple daily conversations, toddlers begin to absorb vocabulary and language structure naturally—just like they learned their first language. Activities like counting in Spanish during circle time, singing bilingual songs, or naming colors and shapes help lay the foundation for lifelong language skills.
Early exposure to a second language not only supports cognitive development and listening skills but also fosters cultural awareness and curiosity about the world.
At this stage, learning truly becomes an adventure—and we’re here to guide every joyful step.
Sets the Stage for Academic Success
The human brain is most receptive to language learning between birth and age 3.
