Infants

Infants will focus on the following areas of development.

• language development and communication

• independence and self-confidence

• motor skills

• social and emotional growth

• movement

• creative expression

Each day we will engage in the following activities (and more) to focus on those areas of development.

• reading

• saying rhymes

• singing songs

• talking

• repeating baby sounds

These activities will take place in an environment that is safe to explore with a variety of toys, textured materials, shapes, art materials, things that open and close, mirrors, push/ride on toys, mats, climbers, ExerSaucers, Jumperoos, and much more.
