Infants

Tiny Tots 2 months - 17 months

BCA Infant program is designed to balance social, physical, cognitive, and language development to stimulate the needs of the whole child. our Tiny Tots program offers our youngest children a loving, nurturing, Christian environment full of stimulating activities in a Spanish Immersion enviornment.

Our babies are exposed to a wide variety of age-appropriate experiences each day including a sensory-rich classroom environment, participation in outdoor time, movement opportunities, sign language curriculum, cooking experiences, daily Bible stories and songs.

 

During their first years, babies and toddlers start to develop skills they will use for the rest of their lives. The normal growth of babies can be broken down into the following areas:

  1. Gross motor – controlling the head, sitting, crawling, maybe even starting to walk, run, and then climb

  2. Fine motor – holding a spoon, picking up a piece of cereal between thumb and finger and moving up to self feeding and drinking from a cup.

  3. Sensory – seeing, hearing, tasting, touching and smelling; toddlers love to explore the world around them. Everything is a learning experience

  4. Language – starting to make sounds, learning some words, understanding what people say. As babies grow into toddlers their communication skills develop through signs and then verbal communication.

  5. Social – the ability to play with family members and other children is vital. First separating from primary caregivers and finding their own independence then learning how to share and take turns.
