In the bustling beehive state of Massachusetts, known to its friends as MA, a merry troop of children venture forth on the grandest, most exciting, rollicking field trips known to kiddom. These bright-eyed explorers, often led by Mrs. Fluffernutter, a kindly teacher with a penchant for polka-dotted bow ties, are as diverse and delightful as the many 'chowdah' recipes you'll find in Boston! Now, let me introduce you to our main guy, Benny the Brontosaurus. Nope, not a dinosaur, a rather gangly boy with a dinosaur-like appetite for knowledge and fun! Benny and his band of buddies, known as the "Curious Crusaders", are particularly known for turning any ordinary field trip into an extraordinary adventure. Whether they're exploring the historic Freedom Trail, unearthing secrets at Plimoth Plantation, or stargazing at the Boston Museum of Science, they’re always up for a chuckle. You’ll often see Benny carrying a gigantic, colorful backpack filled with snacks, books, and a magnifying glass, 'cause you never know when you might need to examine a particularly interesting lobster up close! The children of MA are not just sightseers, but little detectives, historians, and scientists. They dive into each field trip with grit, gusto, and a lovable dash of goofiness. One time, Benny mistook a historic cannon for a mega-sized baguette at the USS Constitution Museum! In Massachusetts, the field trips are not just about studying; they're about laughter, togetherness, and making memories that last a lifetime. So, buckle up, put on your detective hats, and join Benny and the Curious Crusaders as they embark upon magical, Massachusetts' adventures!

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
