Bunnies is a fun, adult-interactive class for toddlers to help build physical skills, self-esteem and teamwork. Toddlers and parents will explore basic soccer and movement activities to develop gross motor skills.

At this developmental stage, providing repetition and sensory activities is the best way to teach children new skills because it captures their attention and allows them to put new information into a context they understand. Sensory activities are important because toddlers are still in the stage of thinking with their senses and learning through direct interaction with their environment.  Revealing new information to children by using colors, bubbles, textured balls, songs and other tools that activate the senses allow the children to use their bodies to interpret new information. Once they have had exposure, they need repetition to solidify learning. Much like reading your child’s favorite story for the 100th time, the repetitive actions are never boring to your child.

Parent’s Role: At this stage, children still need a significant amount of 1on1 attention. A parent’s active participation is vital to the class success.  When parents join in their child’s play it helps develop creativity, language skills, sharing, self-control and problem solving. When a parent responds to a child’s learning with joy and cheers, the child will want to continue to play and discover new things. Encouraging your child to try and focusing on their efforts will create a winning situation for everyone. Most of all, we encourage you to really engage your child and have fun!!!
