Where: Bright Horizons at Charlestown

What: NAEYC’s Week of the Young Child (April 5-11, 2025) marks a week to celebrate early learning, young children, their teachers, families and communities. In celebration, Bright Horizons’ Artsy Thursday will allow children and parents to visit a series of stations where they can engage with various art experiences.

Why: Art is a wonderful way for children to express themselves. Young artists can explore, create, gain confidence, and feel a sense of competency when they create something based on their own ideas and efforts. Plus, this event serves as a great bonding opportunity for parents and children.
