Welcome to the Chipmunk Room! Children in the Chipmunk Room are 12 to 24 months old and have much to explore and learn from their surroundings. Their innate curiosity is respected with tons of opportunities to experiment and activities planned to broaden their knowledge of the world around them. Secure relationships are at the forefront of our goals for Chipmunk children. Caregivers in the Chipmunk Room have an understanding that young children need positive and effective praise to learn prosocial behavior and create healthy relationships. They practice patience when building new relationships and use parents as a constant partner in their child's education, organizing space and materials in ways that help children feel connected to home while in care.
