School Philosophy and Mission
Children begin to learn at a very early age - from the moment they are born. And once they start, there's no stopping that curiosity. How each child learns is surprisingly different. These two critical issues - early learning and individual learning styles are the cornerstones of our curriculum, The World at Their Fingertips, and programs at Bright Horizons.

Typical Day-In-The-Life At This School
Throughout the day, children make self-directed and guided choices using Family Choice Boards, participate in small groups and projects, join in circle-times with the whole group, and reflect upon and document their learning experiences. Children are guided to critical learning experiences that form the building blocks of healthy development. Using the Creative Curriculum for Preschool and knowledge of the children and families as a framework, teachers use their talent and expertise to design, adapt, and invent learning centers that best serve the children in the room.

Travel Stories for Kids
Our preschoolers are a few years away from geography homework (thank goodness!). But still, we think this age is a perfect time to add a few new geography-ish books to a child's library. We're thinking, especially, of books that will transport us (parents and kids together) to places
Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?

Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
