Toddler Program
​(12 Months - 3 Years Old)
Mandarin and Spanish Immersion

Your toddler has a once in a lifetime opportunity to absorb information from the environment. We teach your toddler the world's most spoken languages when their brain's are hard wiring for language.  We provide your toddler with the ideal environment to make the most of this small window of time.

The Toddler program, for children 12 months and up, takes advantage of the toddler’s natural drive to act independently. Amici Trilingual Montessori advances each child's growth and development through a rich and and well prepared environment designed just for toddlers. The classrooms are a special place for the young child to begin his/her steps towards independence and self-reliance. 

Dedicated, nurturing and trained teachers implement a toddler designed curriculum to foster cognitive development, speech and language development, strengthen fine motor and gross motor skills, introduce grace and courtesy lessons, and promote independence. An important part of a toddler’s developing independence is learning to care for him/herself by washing hands and putting on shoes and jackets. 

Toddler exercises and activities recognize that children learn by doing. Classroom materials are always accessible, attractive, safe, and geared for a child’s success. Activities are changed regularly in response to children’s need for variety and challenge as they grow and learn. The safe, loving, gentle atmosphere puts children and parents at ease and makes for a trusting, spontaneous transition to school. Toddlers come to school five days a week, and may choose to stay for mornings-only or a full day.
