What is the two-year-old daycare program at Kiddie Kare A'Kademie in Kenosha?

The Elmo Room at Kiddie Kare A'Kademie is where structured learning begins for two-year-olds. Located at our Kenosha, WI center at 9244 39th Avenue (Village of Pleasant Prairie), this program channels your child's natural curiosity into real learning through hands-on activities, group projects, and guided play.

Two-year-olds are curious, energetic, and ready to explore the world around them. Our Elmo Room teachers create an environment where children feel confident to try new things, ask questions, and interact with their peers. Every day includes a mix of academics, art, music, sensory play, and outdoor time.

Every child receives breakfast and two healthy snacks daily in our 100% nut-free center. Our Elmo Room teachers are Wisconsin DHS-certified, background-checked through the Wisconsin Department of Justice, and average over 10 years of early childhood experience.

How does the Elmo Room build social skills for two-year-olds?

Social and emotional development is especially important at age two. At Kiddie Kare A'Kademie in Kenosha, our teachers guide children through the skills they need to thrive in a group setting.

Your child will practice sharing, taking turns, and using words to express feelings. They'll learn how to join group activities, wait patiently, and show kindness to friends. These aren't lessons taught from a textbook. They're woven into every activity, every snack time, and every playground moment throughout the day.

Our teachers model positive behavior and use consistent, gentle guidance. Two-year-olds have big emotions, and our staff is experienced in helping children develop self-regulation while still feeling safe and supported.

What comes before and after the Elmo Room?

Children enter the Elmo Room from the Twiddle Bug Room (one-year-old daycare), where they've already been introduced to basic concepts and daily routines at our Kenosha center.

After the Elmo Room, your child moves to the Zoe Room (3K preschool program), where they'll build on everything they learned and begin letter recognition A through Z, counting to 31, handwriting, and more. Because your child already knows the center, the transition is seamless.
