Education is dynamic at Bright Horizons. Like children, we are always learning and
benefiting from the latest research and thinking around educational practices as
well as practicing educational methods that have stood the test of time. At Bright
Horizons, we have three approaches to education: The World at Their Fingertips
program for learning practiced at many of our early care and education programs;
the Montessori Method based on the approach developed by Maria Montessori in the
early 1900s; and our Elementary Schools curriculum. Read below and use the menu
on the left to find out more about each.

Learning at Home offers parents opportunities to extend
their child's learning through brief activities that are voluntary, fun, and fit
into the busy lives of families. Learning at Home provides a database of activities
for infants through school age children to do at home with parents, many that naturally
flow from everyday life.
The activities cover the curriculum spectrum - language,
science, math, social skills and so on. You will be able to draw off of this database
to extend what is happening in your child’s homebase or classroom.
