A Great Introduction to Learning

Daily activities support themes, building a foundation in math, science, social interaction, and creative activities like art, music and dramatic play. Our program focuses on developing a natural curiosity for learning.

Learning centers provide an academic emphasis through hands-on discovery experiences.

 

After School Enrichment

Learning Enrichment for School-Age Children

Little Rascals offers enriched educational programs that are fun and interesting for school-aged children.

Children also have ample opportunity to socialize, do their homework, and play. Little Rascals for school-agers is like a great summer camp, where free play, exploration and learning all happen together.

Children learn by doing. So our school-age curriculum provides them with a variety of hands-on activities based on inspiring, real-world themes. We call it the Imagination Highway, and it provides a perfect framework that helps children expand on the knowledge and skills they've already developed.
