Season 2, Episode 1


After a year-long break, we are back with Season 2 of the podcast! In this first episode, we reflect on the journey, growth, and lessons learned during the pause, while setting the tone for the year ahead. We dive deep into early childhood education practices for toddlers (ages 1–3), with a focus on Teaching Strategies GOLD objectives, intentional teaching, and intentional scheduling.


Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or childcare provider, this episode is designed to equip you with strategies that support young children’s development, learning, and daily routines in meaningful ways. You’ll leave with practical insights and tools to strengthen your classroom or home environment, and with resources you can explore further.
