Our Approach

Welcome to Crayons 2 Pencils, where we provide a nurturing and educational environment for children across two wonderful locations in Norwalk.
 

Crayons 2 Pencils Early Learning Center:
This center is dedicated to our youngest learners, from birth to pre-kindergarten. We offer a full-day program that carefully prepares your child for their exciting journey into elementary school. Our curriculum is designed to foster early childhood education through engaging preschool activities, parent-teacher conferences, and a comprehensive approach to learning and development.


Crayons 2 Pencils Recreation Center:
Our second location is a vibrant space for both our Pre-K students and a before/after school age program for Kindergarten through 3rd-grade students. Our after-school program is uniquely structured like a camp rather than traditional childcare, providing a diverse array of activities that captivate and inspire. Each afternoon, children can explore our special interest rooms, including an Imagination/Lego building room, an Art room, a Kids Culinary Kitchen, a Fitness Studio, a Gym, and an Arcade. Outside, children can enjoy multiple playgrounds, complete with mini golf, gaga ball, and an abundance of other engaging activities.
 

At Crayons 2 Pencils, we are committed to empowering children to explore, learn, and thrive in a fun and supportive setting.
