What Parents are Saying

Our greatest advocates are also our closest friends.

"Thank you so much for all that you do for the children, families and staff. Bright Horizons has been a second home for our three daughters, and our family, for nearly 10 years now! The teachers have contributed tremendously to our daughters' growth and development, and the feeling of leaving your children with people they adore is incredibly comforting."

World at their Fingertips

The story behind Bright Horizons emergent curriculum

What happens when a toddler tells his teacher he loves cheetahs? Or a pre-kindergarten student asks what dinosaurs eat? At Bright Horizons®, those questions spark learning opportunities and lessons in math, reading, science, art…and more. Watch the video to see teachers and parents talk about this very unique approach toward curriculum, and how a child's very own interests become the launch pad for curiosity... and a lifetime love of learning.

Prime Time Puzzles

You Will Need:

A large, interesting photograph or picture, glue, cardboard and scissors.

Directions:

Have your child glue the picture onto cardboard or stiff paper. You will probably need to be the one to cut the glued picture into large sections. Show your child the picture, and then mix up the pieces for your child to put back together.

Tip:

Talk with your child about the picture. Make more complicated puzzles with/for older children.
