Read, Review, Reflect

We all know that every day with toddlers is likely to yield a different experience due to their continually developing skill sets and personalities; however, how we prepare and care for them should not. The following contribution is a part of our “Read, Review, Reflect” series found here on our teacher’s blog. This content ranges from developmental expectations and routines to effective story times, focusing on strategies which are needed with our little ones.
