YOUNG TWOS PROGRAM

Young Twos Program

23 Months-2.3 YeaRS

Mondays & Wednesdays | 9:00-10:30 AM
September 2024 - May 2025 (30-Weeks)

Deepen your child’s imagination and support school readiness through diverse explorations with music and art. In the Young Twos Program, children develop a sense of community, while they explore, create, and discover. Teachers support your family through a gentle and gradual separation process, as each child becomes comfortable in the classroom setting. Students’ ideas are incorporated into the curriculum, sparking joyous music-making which is supported by a vast repertoire of folk, classical, jazz, popular, and original music. Children gain independence in this welcoming arts-centered classroom, where drums, bells, shakers, claves, as well as other instruments, books, and props are explored.

Young students discover art through hands-on experiences with a broad range of media and techniques. By supporting your child’s innate artistic vision, the environment inspires the creation of drawings, paintings, collages, prints, and sculptures.

Young Twos Teachers & Pianist

In addition to a head music teacher, a head art teacher, and an assistant teacher, the teaching team features a pianist who supports the learning process and improvises accompaniments in a variety of musical styles. Key to the Diller-Quaile approach is the collaboration among and between the teachers and the children.
