If your child is not potty-trained as of yet, then this stage also marks the beginning of a child’s potty-training journey.
Frequently, the staff frequently asks each child if they have to go to the restroom, and then guide them through the process.
Before you know it, you have a potty-trained child.
Wouldn’t this be wonderful to have this extra support for you and your child?
Curriculum for twaddlers includes:
- Daily circle time to encourage social participation and verbal communication skills.
- Interactive play, music, and dance.

At The Learning Experience, a full cast of characters has been created. These characters become your child’s educators, partners, and friends through the preschool education journey.
Each character has a unique personality and area of interest.

Enrichment Programs
From six weeks to six years old, little learners benefit from mandatory early childhood enrichment programs. STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) is incorporated for certain ages. Super Soccer along with yoga keeps kids moving and creates positive healthy energy.
You can learn more about their Enrichment programs and there is no additional charge.
