Toddlers Learn by Doing—and Moving
Toddlers are naturally curious and constantly in motion. At STEM Bug Children’s Academy, our Wiggle Worms program channels that energy into meaningful growth. Through movement, play, and interaction, toddlers build essential skills that set the stage for future learning.
Walk, Talk, and Wonder
In our Wiggle Worms classroom, toddlers are encouraged to:
Practice walking and gross motor skills
Build language through songs, stories, and conversation
Explore textures, sounds, and objects through guided play
Engage in STEM-inspired activities that teach cause and effect, sorting, patterns, and more
Every moment is a chance to wonder, wiggle, and learn.

Designed for Busy Bodies and Growing Minds
Our toddler space is safe, engaging, and developmentally rich—with:
Soft, open areas for climbing and crawling
Age-appropriate sensory stations
Tools for early science, building, and discovery
Daily routines that promote independence and structure
Bottom Line
Toddlers thrive when they’re free to move, explore, and express themselves. Wiggle Worms offers a nurturing environment where every step, word, and discovery supports confident, joyful learning.
