The Bunny Group
2 - 3 Years
Bunny Principles
The Bunny Group supports Creek’s emerging preschoolers, typically 2–3 years old. Children at this age are gaining more control over their bodies, expanding their language, and stepping into early independence. Our classroom is designed to nurture those growing skills with gentle guidance, playful exploration, and a strong sense of connection. We ground our work in the following principles:
A small group setting allows children to feel secure, supported, and ready to try new challenges with the comfort of a trusted caregiver.
A predictable daily routine helps children build confidence, understand expectations, and feel safe as they explore their expanding world.
Daily communication with families ensures we work together to support each child’s growth in language, self‑help skills, and emotional development.
Growing language skills are encouraged through conversations, pretend play, and modeling communication—helping children express needs, negotiate with peers, and build vocabulary.
Building focus skills is supported through short, engaging small‑group activities that introduce new concepts and help children practice listening and participating.
Opportunities to explore new materials—building, painting, sorting, matching, and open‑ended play—allow children to strengthen fine motor skills and discover how things work.
Emerging self‑sufficiency is nurtured as children practice using the bathroom independently, dressing for outdoor play, caring for their belongings, and following simple directions.
Early problem‑solving skills are supported as children learn to navigate conflict, make choices, and work through challenges with guidance from trusted adults.
The Bunny Room is designed to be a warm, supportive place where young learners can practice independence, explore new ideas, and grow with confidence as they prepare for the transition into the Butterfly Room.
