Imajine That

Imajine That currently offers extended learning after school programs inside the Boston Public Schools. Imajine That has also offered customized enrichment programs in the Lawrence Public Schools. Imajine That provides education and enrichment for children in the preschool and elementary years. With a play-based approach, Imajine That follows all National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) guidelines for developmentally appropriate practice. Practices include an intentional focus on (1) social and emotional development, (2) oral language development (speaking, listening, and vocabulary), (3) early literacy learning (especially phonemic awareness, phonics, and listening comprehension), and (4) exploration of STEM topics through highly engaging interactive play. Art and music are always incorporated into the activities. Imajine That uses educational technology from award-winning producers (e.g. the science games from Peep in the Big Wide World produced by WGBH, a PBS affiliate) to enhance learning experiences with iPad technology. And, finally, but very importantly, foundational to the Imajine That approach are physical activity and a healthy way of eating.

Imajine That is grateful to various organizations that have acknowledged and awarded them for the dedication and innovation that they have created over the years. Recently Imajine That has received B Corp certification. Imajine That has also been awarded in Arts and Entertainment Industry from Inner City 100, Icons of Industry Growth, Boston Business Journal Pacesetters Award, North Shore Magazine Best of the Best Indoor Play Space and Kids Birthday Parties, 2013 Merrimack Valley Chamber of Commerce, Best Innovative Partnership Award.
