Goulburn Toddler Room

Welcome to the Toddler Room, our environment is for children aged from 2 years old to 3 years old.

There is so much growth during the toddler age, in both body and mind. You will begin to notice more physical development, the need to try and run, hop and climb. You'll also hear more mimicking of sounds and attempts at more communication with themselves, family and peers.

Toddlers will be encouraged to become more independent through the day to day routine, this is something they often strive for too. Learning to use utensils for self -feeding, putting on their own sunscreen, trying to put their shoes and even showing interest in toilet training. Our toddlers are given plenty of opportunities and time to achieve their own goals.

There are activities and learning opportunities for educators to role model social play within their peer group to help toddlers with their social development. There are a lot of big feelings that they start to feel at this age and social opportunities can allow for emotional development to grow too. 

There is a strong focus on literacy through songs, stories and the arts in the day to day routine. The more opportunities toddlers have to listen and engage with literacy rich experiences, will assist with their desire to start verbally communicating their needs and interests as well as with those around them.
