PRESCHOOL
It is our mission to prepare children for Kindergarten with Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Theory in mind, a hands-on approach to learning. According to Piaget, children learn through play and imitation. Our program includes a well-planned curriculum that is aligned with the Rhode Island Early Learning and Development Standards (RIELDS). Activities include a wide variety of hands-on experiences which include art, literature, music, science, and dramatic play.
Our Full Day Preschool program hours are 7:30am-5:00pm. There are two, three, and five day options.
TODDLERS
Twice as Nice accepts Toddlers ages 18mos-3 years of age. We believe that toddlers learn best in a safe and loving environment where they can explore and engage in meaning play. The activities are aligned with the RIELDS and our teachers will use these standards to guide the curriculum and inform families about learning and developmental milestones. Our toddlers sing songs, learn to count, discover the world around them, and learn to follow simple instructions. We will build upon their interests and curiosity.
Our Full Day Toddler program hours are 7:30am-5:00pm. There are two, three, and five day options.
Let Twice As Nice be an experience your child looks forward to everyday!
