Toddler Curriculum & Activities

Our curriculum is theme-based and developmentally appropriate focusing on biblical concepts and values as well as following Washington State Kindergarten readiness learning targets.  NCCDC uses several curriculums to create our well-rounded program including Creating God’s World, Second Step, and Woven Word as well as never overlooking the importance of child-led play.

We begin teaching toddlers by exposing them to books, singing songs, playing games, and helping them reach early milestones. We prepare our toddlers for preschool by introducing them to the preschool curriculum. Toddlers enjoy a daily group time that focuses on reading stories and learning colors, shapes, numbers, and letters.

Preschool Curriculum & Activities

Our mission is to provide a safe and loving Christ-centered environment for children to develop academic kindergarten readiness skills and tools for a lifelong love of learning.

Preschool classes are divided into learning centers in which children explore, learn, and play.  Some of the subjects they study include bible story concepts, language and development, phonics, reading, writing, numbers, art, and dramatic play.
