Once your child turns one and becomes more mobile, we stimulate development in a variety of ways:
Physical Engagement
Very young children develop at a fast pace at this stage, so they require gross motor activities to help build and fine-tune their movement skills. We offer several developmental activities for our toddlers, which is fun for both the child and the caregiver.
Intellectual Stimulation
Through verbal exchanges, playing music, making various noises, we encourage your one-year-old to explore objects for size, shape, color, texture, movement, position, and sound. Our goal is to facilitate bottle holding, fingering foods, picking up small objects, and learning to creep, crawl, and walk.
Social Development
By interacting with familiar people and each other, toddlers at Neighborhood Christian Learning Center of Dallas receive reassurance and nurturing at all times. Our caregivers offer a gentle touch and a calm voice while encouraging friendly play.
