A week of discovery at Homework Haven

Beyond the books, our daily activities blend education with excitement, fostering growth, creativity, and essential life skills. Discover the unique journey your child will embark on with us at Homework Haven at Holliston. 

 

NOTE:  These activities are optional for children. These activities are meant to provide additional options for children wanting more structured opportunities. They are not required to participate. They can partake of any of the other indoor/outdoor activities.

Movement & mindfulness for growing minds

Our week begins with "Movement Mondays," where children explore child yoga or dance to music using handheld musical instruments or other items. This is similar to "movement or brain breaks" in the classroom. This energetic start helps kids focus and express themselves. On "Tucker Turtle Tuesdays," we foster social-emotional learning, guiding students to interact with peers in a safe and kind environment, building a supportive community.

Hands-on learning & healthy habits

Prepare for "WOW Wednesdays" where hands-on STEM activities will have children saying Wow! Then, "Thinking Healthy Thursdays" brings "Cooking with Carrie," allowing children to help prepare healthy snacks using child-safe kitchen tools. All recipes will be shared with families, promoting nutritious eating habits for everyone.

Fun, freedom & a unique afterschool experience

"Fun Friday" features a child-based fun activity chosen by children at the beginning of each week. Our inside activities include options for playing in "Construction Corner," "Transportation Terrace," "Science Street," "Literacy Lane," "Math Motorway," "Drama Drive," or "Artistic Alley."

 

Children will find that this program provides the intersection between learning and play. Outdoor activities, temperature permitting, include a variety of sports options, sand play in an 8 X 10 sandbox, swings, climber and other activities.
