Engaging, Safe, and Active Learning for Ages 18 Months to 3 Years

These are the years of exploration, movement, first words, big feelings—and huge developmental leaps. Our Salisbury-based toddler classrooms offer a nurturing and fun environment where children can thrive, learn, and build essential early skills.

A Day in Our Toddler Program
Every day at Kings Kids is structured yet flexible—designed to keep toddlers engaged while supporting natural rhythms of play, learning, and rest.
Morning Routine
The day begins with warm greetings, breakfast, and circle time, where we sing songs, talk about the weather, and explore simple concepts like colors, numbers, and shapes.
Learning Through Play
We believe play is how toddlers learn best. Through hands-on centers, creative exploration, and guided group activities, toddlers practice:
- Language and vocabulary development
- Fine and gross motor coordination
- Problem-solving and cause-effect relationships
- Early literacy and number concepts
- Social-emotional expression and cooperation
Art, Music, and Movement
Creative expression is part of our daily curriculum. Toddlers enjoy painting, dancing, building, and storytelling—activities that strengthen communication and imagination.
Outdoor Play
We schedule at least two outdoor playtimes daily, weather permitting. Our amazing toddler-friendly playground includes safe climbing structures, ride-on toys, and open space for running and exploring.
Rest and Recharging
After lunch, toddlers have a quiet rest period in cozy, individual nap spaces with supervision and comfort from our teachers.
The Investigator Club Curriculum
In our toddler classrooms, we use The Investigator Club—a nationally recognized early childhood curriculum that promotes cognitive and emotional development through exploration and inquiry. Toddlers are introduced to foundational learning in:
- Literacy
- Math and problem-solving
- Science and nature
- Arts and music
- Health and safety
- Emotional regulation and peer interaction
The curriculum supports school readiness skills while still leaving plenty of room for fun, curiosity, and discovery.
Supporting Language and Social Growth
Toddlers are learning to express themselves—and we’re here to help. Our caregivers model respectful communication, guide behavior with empathy, and encourage peer interaction in a positive way. Every day, we work on:
- Taking turns and sharing
- Using words to express feelings
- Following directions
- Listening and responding in group settings
- Building positive relationships with peers and adults
Safety and Cleanliness Are Top Priorities
We maintain strict safety protocols to ensure your child’s wellbeing:
- Daily cleaning and sanitation of all surfaces and toys
