No credit card required. Sign up in minutes and your entire center — including the older toddler room — gets full access immediately.
The older toddler room is where children’s personalities explode — and where inconsistent programming shows up most clearly. Two-year-olds are testing boundaries, developing language rapidly, and starting to play alongside peers. Teachers in this room need a curriculum that is structured enough to give them direction but flexible enough to keep up with children who change moods every 12 minutes.
Learning Beyond Paper gives older toddler teachers exactly that — a full year of intentional, age-appropriate lessons ready on their phone before the morning rush.
Watch how teachers access older toddler lesson plans on any device — with no prep time, printing, or planning meetings required.
Browse the full 52-week scope of play-based lessons designed for two-year-olds in childcare and preschool programs.
Get a personalized look at how LBP's older toddler curriculum fits your specific program and classroom setup.
Learning Beyond Paper is the only cloud-based older toddler curriculum that gives teachers a complete, developmentally appropriate lesson plan for every day of the year — with real-time coaching, bilingual support, and embedded professional development included.
The older toddler curriculum is built around what two-year-olds are actually ready for — parallel play, two-word combinations, dramatic play, and growing independence. Every week builds on the last, giving the room a clear developmental arc across the full year.
ELBY is woven into every older toddler lesson — helping teachers in the moment with differentiation tips, behavior guidance, and ideas for extending an activity when a child is engaged and ready for more.
LBP embeds 49.5 hours of professional development directly into the curriculum. Older toddler teachers learn best practices in classroom management, language development, and play-based instruction while they are actively teaching — no separate training required.
Before LBP, the older toddler room was the hardest to keep consistent. Now every teacher — morning, afternoon, or substitute — runs the same lesson with the same developmental intent. Directors notice the difference immediately.
The curriculum's emphasis on early language means parents see vocabulary growing faster and more consistently. Teachers can document specific milestones and share progress in a way that builds real family trust.
Two-year-olds have big feelings and short attention spans. LBP lessons are designed for exactly this — short, engaging, and structured to reduce transitions that trigger meltdowns. ELBY also gives teachers in-the-moment guidance when a lesson isn't landing.
At $199 per month, the older toddler curriculum is included alongside infant, young toddler, preschool, and pre-k. Directors running multi-room programs get one invoice, one renewal date, and one platform for everything.
No credit card required. Sign up in minutes and your entire center — including the older toddler room — gets full access immediately.
An older toddler teacher picks up her phone, finds the week's lesson, reads the activity setup and ELBY's coaching tip, and she's ready to lead. From login to teaching in under two minutes.
The older toddler curriculum is designed for children ages 24 to 36 months — the two-year-old stage. This is one of the most developmentally significant windows in early childhood, when language explodes, dramatic play begins, and children start building social skills with peers. Every lesson is calibrated to this specific stage, with activities that are appropriately challenging without being frustrating for two-year-olds.
A 25-month-old and a 35-month-old have very different abilities, and a good curriculum has to work for both. LBP addresses this through ELBY, the virtual instructional coach built into every lesson. ELBY provides teachers with differentiation guidance — suggestions for simplifying an activity for a child who needs more support and for extending it for a child who is ready for the next challenge. This makes differentiation practical for every teacher, not just experienced ones.
Immediately after signup. Teachers receive login credentials and can access the full older toddler curriculum from any device within minutes of your trial starting. There is no required training period, no software installation, and no scheduled onboarding call needed before teaching begins. Most teachers run their first lesson on the same day they receive access.
Yes. Every lesson across all five age groups — including older toddlers — is aligned to all 50 state early learning standards and the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework. Alignment is embedded in the platform and tracked automatically as teachers use the curriculum, which means documentation for licensing reviews and program assessments is built into daily use.
Yes. Bilingual English and Spanish content is included in every LBP subscription at no additional charge. For older toddler rooms serving Spanish-speaking families, activity descriptions and family engagement materials are available in both languages — an important feature at this stage when language development is at its peak.
Learning Beyond Paper is priced at $199 per month for school-wide access. This covers every classroom in your center from infants through pre-k, including the older toddler room, with no per-teacher fees and no add-on costs for bilingual content, ELBY coaching, or professional development. Most programs find it costs less than their current paper curriculum — and delivers significantly more.
Yes. You can start a free 30-day trial with no credit card required, giving your entire center — including the older toddler room — full access to the platform. Programs partnering through ProCare Software may qualify for a 90-day trial.
Two-year-olds are developmentally wired to test limits, have big emotional reactions, and struggle with transitions. LBP addresses this directly — lessons are short and structured to minimize unnecessary transitions, and ELBY provides behavior guidance inside activities so teachers can respond in the moment rather than improvising. The consistency of a daily curriculum plan also helps two-year-olds feel more settled, which reduces behavioral disruptions over time.
Yes. Learning Beyond Paper is a complete, standalone curriculum for the older toddler age group — it is not a supplement. It provides 52 weeks of daily lesson plans, professional development, standards alignment, bilingual content, and instructional coaching. Programs that switch from paper-based curricula like Teaching Strategies, Frog Street, or HighScope consistently find LBP easier to implement, more accessible to newer teachers, and significantly more affordable.
