We are fully licensed by the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care and are committed to encouraging the intellectual development of children.

We provide an enjoyable and stimulating program designed to increase your child's knowledge and understanding of the world. Three to five year olds are active curious human beings beginning to seek their own identities. Small World provides many and varied experiences in which the child will develop a positive self-concept. it is our goal to teach children that learning is fun. We enhance self-sufficiency through a variety of hands-on experiences and reinforce socializing with peers and respect for others by sharing group experiences. At small world we help build a positive self image through praise and encouragement.

From witches’ potions to skulls and bones, monsters, spiders, ghosts, and even some spooky dinners… we had a BOO-tiful week filled with Halloween fun! 🎃👻🕷️🧙🏽‍♀️

We loved exploring, creating, playing, and getting into the Halloween spirit! We hope everyone had a spook-tacular weekend filled with fun, memories, and lots of trick-or-treating! 🧡🖤

At Small World, we love open-ended art that lets little imaginations take the lead! But there’s just something extra special about a good old-fashioned handprint holiday craft! A little paint, a tiny hand, a little finger and a keepsake families can treasure for years to come. ✋🏽👻 🩶

Our little workers were busy creating a colorful piece of collaborative art! 🎨🖌️

We started this project on Thursday and had so much fun picking up where we left off and finishing it today! Using assorted recycled materials, cardboard, paint, and glue, the children explored different textures, practiced their fine motor skills, and worked together to transform everyday materials into a beautiful piece of wall art! 🌈♻️

A little glue, a lot of creativity, and teamwork make for something special! 💚

🎃What a SPOOK-tacular time downtown! 👻

Miss Scarecrow and Barney had the best time at Downtown trick-or-treat! We loved seeing so many of our current and former Small World children, along with some of Miss Dakota’s former students, out enjoying the festivities with all the little ghosts and goblins!

There’s nothing better than seeing our little friends enjoying the community we love so much. Thanks for making it such a fun afternoon! We love being part of such a wonderful community! 🍫🍬

What a way to start the week! 🔨🎃

Our little builders were hard at work hammering away at our class pumpkin and an ordinary cardboard box! Using golf tees as their “nails,” the children attached foam pieces, explored different textures, and got creative with their designs. Once the building was done, we swapped the golf tees for beautiful fall flowers and turned their creations into something new! 💐

But the fun didn’t stop there! While they were busy hammering away, our little learners were building so many important skills. From fine and gross motor development and hand-eye coordination to problem-solving, teamwork, communication, and sensory exploration. All through hands-on, child-led play! 🧡

Needless to say, this activity is always a fan favorite! There’s just something about a little hammering, a lot of creativity, and the freedom to explore that makes for the BEST kind of learning! 🍁✨

Thank you all so much for your love and support! It truly means the world to me ❤️

Here’s a little peek at some of the fun, learning, and exploring we’ve enjoyed during our first month of school! We can’t post it all—that would take all the magic out of it—but we’re excited to share a few activities from our wonderful start to the year.

Thank you for being part of our journey! 🤍

Miss Dakota’s Small World traded in the classroom for the Wild West today at the YMCA Trunk or Treat! 🤠🌵

Community events like this remind us why we love what we do and how special it is to be part of such a wonderful community. ❤️

We loved bringing Jessie and a little Toy Story magic straight from Andy’s toy box to the party! From big smiles and sweet treats to seeing so many familiar faces and trick-or-treaters, it was an evening full of fun!

Cowboy hats off to the YMCA for putting on such a great event! 🤠 Thank you to everyone who stopped by to hang out with Jessie and Miss Dakota’s Small World!

You’ve got a friend in us! ❤️
