In the farthest Northeast corner of the United States, where the skyscrapers of Boston scrape the sky and the lighthouses of Cape Cod wink at the ships on the sea, you'll find a rather splendid place known as Massachusetts. Our story introduces a cast of cute, funny, and remarkably adventurous kiddos, who are fondly referred to as the ‘Nature Navigators’. Now, the Nature Navigators are not your average children. They swap video game controllers for magnifying glasses and favorite TV shows for real-life bird watching. You'll find them trudging through the ancient Appalachian trails, their sneakers splattered with mud, and laughter echoing through the trees. They dive into the waters of the Atlantic, swimming alongside the seahorses and occasionally engaging in a friendly race with a speedy blue crab. Our leader is a character as distinctive as Massachusetts itself; a rambunctious raccoon named Rocky. Rocky wears a bright red bandana, a sturdy backpack, and a pair of round spectacles that always seem to slide down his nose. He may seem a bit clumsy, but he's as smart as a whip, and always ready with a joke to cheer up his team. Together, the Nature Navigators and Rocky explore the corners of Massachusetts, from the Berkshire Mountains to the beaches of the Cape, and all the hidden secrets in-between. They always have a giggle as they learn about the environment and the creatures who call this place home. It's wacky, it's wild, it's a hoot-and-a-half, and every day brings a new adventure for these intrepid Massachusetts explorers.

Bright Beginnings Early Childhood Curriculum is designed to bridge the gap between home and school, creating a continuous learning environment for your child. We provide families with a monthly calendar that outlines the curriculum activities for the month ahead. Our calendar is designed to not only provide information about the activities that will be occurring in the classroom, but also to provide tips, recipes, craft ideas and words to songs and nursery rhymes. This is to help foster a bond between your child and yourself. We encourage you to post the calendar on the refrigerator and use it to regularly ask your child about the themes, activities and events they are engaging in at school. This will help to improve communication between home and school, allowing you to stay informed and involved in your child's learning journey.
