Crayon Campus - Howland is a family-owned early education and child care centre in New Bedford serving infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-age children through a mix of full-day and before/after-school programs.
Crayon Campus - Howland operates as part of a small group of family-owned early education centres in the New Bedford area. The program enrols children from infancy through the school-age years and describes a long history of operation since 2001.
The program uses a child-centred, play-based approach with classroom "interest areas" and hands-on activities. Classrooms emphasize language and reasoning, science, math, literacy, music, art, and large- and small-motor development. Teachers are presented as partners with families and design activities that build on children’s interests and developmental level. Enrichment offerings include visitors and field trips.
Care for infants includes comforting routines for feeding, changing and sleeping and activities to support cognitive, physical and emotional development through songs, physical play, literacy and socialization.
Toddlers are offered a variety of play-based learning experiences that promote self-help skills, language development, imaginative play, manipulative activities, music and books, with classroom materials chosen to support repeated exploration.
Preschool classrooms are arranged into interest areas to support hands-on, child-centred learning across language, reasoning, science, math, literacy, music, art and motor development; parents are treated as partners and the program includes enrichment outings and visitors.
Before- and after-school care during the academic year provides homework support, small-group activities, cooperative games and outdoor play; the program offers space for homework and arts-and-crafts activities.
Full-day care offered during school vacations and summer vacation with daily field trips and daytime activities such as nature walks, water play and field games; lunch is provided during summer programming.
Programming for school-age children emphasizes independent work and small-group collaboration with staff who bring a range of interests to the program.
