Starfish Program
Young Toddlers (12 months - 2 years)
Like starfish who regenerate and adapt to their environment, our young toddlers are developing resilience, curiosity, and the foundational skills they need to thrive in their expanding world.
Nurturing Natural Curiosity
Toddlers require a safe and loving environment to foster their natural curiosity and exploration. At Blue Harbor Preschool Academy, we address this need by providing hands-on activities that encourage sensory play, early problem-solving, and social interaction. This approach lays the foundation for essential motor and cognitive growth.
Our structured yet flexible daily routine balances active learning and quiet rest, supporting healthy development for young learners. We guide toddlers as they take their first steps toward independence, communication, and teamwork.
