Grounded in the Idaho Early Learning Standards, this curriculum offers a structured yet flexible framework to support your child's unique growth journey.

Physical Development:
  • Hands-On Exploration: Engage your infant with a variety of objects featuring different shapes, sizes, and textures. Encourage grasping and releasing to develop their fine motor skills while fostering an innate curiosity about their environment.
  • Movement Activities: Promote essential physical milestones such as reaching, crawling, and rolling. Structured activities and playtime will help your child discover their abilities and expand their movement repertoire.
Social and Emotional Development:
  • Relationship Building: Our curriculum emphasizes establishing strong bonds between caregivers and infants. Activities designed to promote responsiveness and interaction help build trust, emotional security, and a solid foundation for social engagement.
  • Turn-Taking and Shared Experiences: Simple games will introduce the concepts of sharing and cooperation, laying the groundwork for healthy social interactions in the future.
Language and Communication:
  • Verbal Engagement: Encourage babbling and cooing through consistent, responsive communication. Our curriculum promotes early language skills by introducing simple words and phrases through everyday conversations, fostering a love for communication in your child.
  • Imitation and Expression: Engage your child in activities that encourage them to imitate sounds and gestures, enhancing both their understanding and expression of emotions.
Cognitive Development:
  • Exploration of Cause and Effect: Interactive toys and games will help your infant discover how their actions lead to outcomes, sparking early problem-solving abilities.
  • Object Permanence and Discovery: Through playful hiding games, your infant will begin to grasp the concept of object permanence, crucial for cognitive development during this stage.
Fine and Gross Motor Skills:
  • Physical Exploration: Activities designed to enhance both fine and gross motor skills will encourage sitting, crawling, and standing with support, helping your child gain confidence in their physical abilities.
  • Balance and Coordination: Play-based exercises will further develop coordination and balance, essential for future physical activities.
