Parent-Child Time is designed to honor this special stage of development, as older toddlers begin moving from highly active exploratory play to more structured learning experiences. During each session, parents will separate from the classroom for discussion time, encouraging children to build independence and strengthen relationships with their teacher and peers.

Parent discussion topics may include: sleeping, eating, and toileting, as well as creativity, language and literacy development, power struggles, discipline, and other concerns relevant to the group.
