Incorporate Meaningful Learning Experiences Into Daily Routines
Everyday moments with 2-year-olds present opportunities to build upon their natural curiosity. Create meaningful interactions that help young children learn to regulate their emotions and behaviors, participate in a group, develop relationships with people in their lives, and have confidence in their own learning.
Focus on Intentional Caregiving
Utilize resources designed specifically to support the unique demands of each day in a twos program. Teachers and caregivers can provide children with the opportunity to develop secure attachments through developmentally appropriate resources that allow them to gain confidence as learners.
Address the Unique Needs, Interests, and Abilities of All Children
Every child is different, so it’s no surprise that they learn differently, too. Easily meet an 2-year-old exactly at their level, including those with disabilities, with a unique color-coded progression that shows the typical development of a skill from birth through third grade.

[This curriculum] has allowed my teachers to provide meaningful and engaging activities in their classrooms. It provides components teachers can use to ensure they are reaching the whole child, including social–emotional skills, cognitive skills, language, and physical development. The Creative Curriculum Cloud was a great addition for my teachers and parents.
