The Ducklings Room serves children between 12 and 24 months of age, although this may vary depending on each child’s development. There are three caregivers with a maximum of 12 toddlers. Play activities are designed to encourage stimulation in fine and gross motor development and positive social and emotional interactions. Our days are child driven and by choice. A basic routine is followed and adapted according to children’s needs and moods. Following are a few examples of what your toddler will be doing during their time in the Ducklings Room:
