Toddlers
The BeeCurious Curriculum supports active toddlers as they develop increased mobility and begin exploring the world around them. Children engage in hands-on learning centers - dramatic play, blocks, table toys, art, and a cozy area - with toys and props that change regularly to reflect current curriculum studies. Language development is central, with children immersed in daily communication and supported by American Sign Language using twenty core signs, plus additional signs tied to each theme of study. Music, movement, peer interactions, and group projects are woven throughout the day, with outdoor play twice daily extending curriculum experiences into well-equipped play spaces. Process-oriented art and sensory experiences encourage creativity and self-expression.
Preschool
The BeeCurious Curriculum blends guided discovery with child-led exploration, adapting to children’s interests and knowledge. Classrooms feature diverse learning centers, including dramatic play, STEM, art, literacy, and music. Children enjoy family-style meals, daily group time, and outdoor play twice a day. Hands-on experiences—like observing life cycles—bring learning to life. The BP Read with Me program supports early literacy in small groups, while American Sign Language enhances communication. The curriculum aligns with early learning standards, with parent-teacher conferences held three times yearly.

Toddlers
Our Toddler Program focuses on fostering holistic development, supporting children in building social-emotional, physical, language, and cognitive skills through engaging activities and nurturing interactions. Toddlers develop independence, learning to regulate their emotions, seek comfort when needed, and accept guidance from trusted adults. They form positive relationships with peers and adults, use social interactions to explore their environment, and display empathy toward others. Group participation is encouraged, where toddlers balance their own needs with others, learn to resolve conflicts, and demonstrate gross and fine motor skills, such as manipulating objects, using writing tools, and refining movements. As language skills grow, toddlers express their thoughts, follow simple directions, and expand their vocabulary by naming familiar objects and people. They begin to use simple sentences and engage in brief conversations while learning social rules, such as eye contact and turn-taking. Cognitive development is supported through problem-solving, creative play, and participation in rhyming and alphabet activities. Toddlers explore numbers, shapes, spatial relationships, and patterns, laying the foundation for future mathematical concepts. Through curiosity and play, they connect experiences and develop classification skills, fostering an early appreciation for learning.
Preschool
We encourage these skills and more, as they start learning the alphabet, songs, color, paint, and how to eat and drink on their own – at chairs and tables like the big kids! Through our primary caregiving approach, we establish trusting relationships with both children and families, ensuring a smooth transition into the world of early childhood education. Our goal is to support the physical, emotional, developmental, and social needs of infants while maintaining open communication with parents and guardians to provide the best possible care.
