(Unit 2) Topic 6: Simple Science

2 Clock Hours of Early Childhood Education

Science for Toddlers

Toddlers are masters of exploring their environment and discovering boundaries.

​Topic 6 Page 6

They will build upon their existing knowledge in order to discover new ways to do old things. This is the very essence of science, in that toddlers are using information that they have or can easily obtain and combining it with new experiments and ideas. ​
​Like infants, toddlers experience simple science in spatial awareness, sensory, object permanence and cause and effect, but are also introducing the concept of symbolic thinking and action. During the toddler years, this may look like the following: 
Picture
Spatial awareness
18 month old Jude is putting wooden blocks into a box and dumping them out onto the floor only to put them back into the box.​
Picture
Sensory experience
​​Two-year-old Alexia is smelling each food on her plate at mealtime before she takes a bite.
Picture
Object permanence
​20 month old Homar is upset when his teacher takes the toy that he had and puts it behind her back. He knows that it is behind her back and not gone altogether, and he wants it back.
Picture
Cause and effect
​​14 month old Anika pushes two different keys on the keyboard repeatedly, because she knows that they make different sounds. 
Picture
Symbolic thinking and action
​2 and a half year old, Shasta is using a play shopping cart as a baby stroller while playing with a baby doll.
