Overview

Cricket's Learning Center is a childcare and early education program serving infants, toddlers, three-year-olds, pre-kindergarten and kindergarten-age children. The program describes an emphasis on a clean, safe and nurturing environment where children can develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually.

Approach and curriculum

The program combines structured and unstructured activities. Structured elements include a preschool curriculum, regular reading times, circle times, arts and crafts, and musical activities. Curriculum areas listed for older preschoolers include literacy, math, science, creative arts, sensory work, dramatic play, music and movement, social development, independence and both small- and large-motor development.

Classrooms and daily learning

Infant and toddler care is described as home-like with one-on-one attention, focus on language and motor development, weekly thematic lesson plans for parents, classroom portfolios and regular photo documentation.
Toddler classrooms include multiple learning areas such as house and puzzle areas, block play and a group rug for reading, singing and movement; outdoor playground time is used regularly.
Three-year-old classrooms are organized into distinct learning areas for exploration, art and sensory activities, story time and group interaction.
Pre-K and kindergarten classrooms schedule most structured preschool activities in the morning with more open-ended learning in the afternoon; students are eligible to participate in a graduation ceremony option.
