Curriculum Overview

Greenwood-Molina Children’s Center is a child development center located in Corpus Christi, TX for ages 18 months to 12 years of age that is passionate about the development and growth of children. We aim to provide a well-rounded program that is sure to ignite young minds. Our hope, that this strong educational foundation paves the way for your child’s brilliant future.

The Frog Street Curriculum is the base for our program, allowing for age-appropriate learning for toddlers and preschoolers. Developed by leading educators, the Frog Street Curriculum was designed to help children have fun while learning. Being one of the few centers in the Corpus Christi area to have received the Frog Street Curriculum grant, we have been able to develop an environment where children can equate joy with learning and become lifelong learner.

Toddlers

Toddlers are always on the move, learning every step of the way as they explore the world around them. GMCC provides an enriched environment full of learning for our 18 months to 3 years of age.
 
The toddler program emphasizes learning through advanced sensory play with songs, stories, and games. Recognition and retention of sounds, shapes and patterns is just some of what our toddlers are taught. As they progress letters and numbers will be introduced.
Our experienced teachers strive to provide an environment that is engaging for learning opportunities, important for developmental skills which include problem-solving, coordination, and self-help. Each child will receive exceptional care and will be guided through age-appropriate learning that will promote their social, emotional and cognitive development.
