The school that I work, when I first started we had one toddler
room. We had 21 children 18mos to age 3. We only accepted 3 18
months olds. Then we started a second room, that year we had 12
children in each room. I personally prefer a class that is
mainly 2 and 3 years old. I feel the 18 month olds need a more
one on one attention
