First Steps

This room, full of bright colors and smiling faces, is the next step in your child’s journey of development.  With all of the amenities you loved from our Infant 1 room including activities to promote gross motor development and age appropriate toys, staff build on those experiences to get those creepers and crawlers ready to walk tall! 

Using all of their senses, infants will practice their fine motor skills, hand/eye coordination and full body movement until they master those firsts.  Soft tunnels, push toys and pull up bars all help strengthen little muscles.  While individual schedules are maintained, group experiences such as the introduction of table food and buggy rides outside of the center help the child experience the world around them.

Personalities begin to appear at this age.  Arrivals and departures are usually punctuated with little hands waving and kisses being blown!  As your child continues his/her cognitive development and with your input our staff is able to implement the basics of sign language to help your child communicate. 

As always, parent communication continues to be a top priority.  Daily sheets are maintained to keep you updated on all of the activities in your child’s day.

We also encourage parents to call or visit any time!  Downtown (605) 336-3660 or South (605) 362-9438.
