Laugh N' Learn

A child’s first two years are critical for brain and language development. Our toddlers' program is designed to meet the needs of children from 15 months to 2 years old.

From birth, babies are busy, active learners, immediately exploring the sights, sounds, and textures of the world around them. Babies and toddlers are sensorimotor beings; they explore the world through their senses while developing motor skills. Long before they understand concepts like 'under' or 'far' with their minds, their bodies are learning to navigate the up, down, over, and under of the physical world, while their perceptions sort out sizes, colors, and shapes.

At LaughNLearn, we provide learners with what they need: a safe environment, rich with opportunities for active exploration, filled with books, songs, and plenty of listening and responding to their vocalizations and words.

A child’s second year is a time of significant change, much like adolescence in its transitional nature. Just as adolescence bridges childhood and adulthood, two-year-olds are moving from the total dependence of babyhood to the more independent, mobile world of preschoolers. At this age, children are exploring their ability to communicate, move with purpose, assert their independence and individuality, and manage important bodily functions.

At LaughNLearn, we provide the manageable challenges and relaxed environment that two- to three-year-olds need. Our staff understands the frequent changes in moods, interests, and capabilities, offering calm, consistent care and supportive teaching.

As children move into the independence of the preschool years, their learning program evolves into a more structured pace of meaningful and purposeful activities. At LaughNLearn, we encourage children to approach the world with curiosity and a positive attitude toward learning. At this stage, children need the confidence, skills, and desire to think independently, solve problems, work collaboratively, communicate effectively, and gain a deeper understanding of the world around them.

The LaughNLearn program is designed to lay the pedagogical foundations that prepare every child to:

• Be ready to read: Confidently equipped with the desire, vocabulary, and language-deciphering skills they have developed through experiences that are meaningful to them.
• Approach the world with curiosity: Acquire the knowledge and skills that lead to success in math and science, including a growing interest in the properties of objects and the relationships and forces in the natural world.
• Use their social skills: Develop listening skills, self-discipline, patience, task focus, the ability to work with others, and the ability to solve problems.
