Discover the Joy of Learning at Two
At Ivybrook Academy, we understand that the age of two is a time of wonder and rapid growth. Our program is thoughtfully designed to nurture your child’s natural curiosity, support their developmental milestones, and foster a love for learning. Through hands-on activities, interactive play, and a compassionate environment, we guide your child on their journey of exploration and self-discovery.
Emerging Skills We Foster
As children grow, they develop critical skills that shape their ability to communicate, connect, and navigate the world with confidence. Through engaging activities and supportive interactions, we foster key areas of development, helping children build a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Here’s how we nurture their emerging skills:
Language Development
Through stories, songs, and interactive dialogue, children expand their vocabulary and begin forming connections between words and ideas.
Social Connections
Group activities and collaborative play encourage children to develop friendships, practice sharing, and navigate social interactions with kindness and empathy.
Independence
Simple routines and personalized activities empower children to make choices, take small responsibilities, and build confidence in their abilities.
Fine Motor Skills
Hands-on activities such as drawing, stacking blocks, and sensory play strengthen fine motor abilities while encouraging creativity and problem-solving.
Cognitive Exploration
Through puzzles, sorting games, and exploratory activities, children develop problem-solving skills and begin to understand foundational concepts like patterns and sequences.
Emotional Growth
Our compassionate environment helps children identify and express their feelings while building the resilience and empathy essential for future learning.
Daily Outcomes 2-Year-Olds
Supported self-help skills like handwashing, simple cleanup, and early toileting foster a sense of autonomy and responsibility.
Through shared play, children start learning empathy, turn-taking, and positive peer interactions within a nurturing, inclusive environment.
Daily exposure to stories, songs, and conversational exchanges enriches language skills and supports early communication.
Age-appropriate activities such as climbing, balancing, and finger-painting encourage gross and fine motor development, essential for physical coordination.
