Texas A&M Children’s Centers

A collaborative community shaping lifelong innovative learners

About the Centers

The Texas A&M Children’s Centers serve the children of Texas A&M University’s students, faculty, and staff and is part of Texas A&M University’s College of Education & Human Development. Approximately 400 children, ranging in age from 12 months to 6 years, participate in our programs. The centers are supported by Texas A&M University, with all tuition and fees reinvested in providing a quality program for children and families.

Children learn best through active, participatory play and interactions that use all of their senses. We give our children the opportunity to set their own goals and to select their own materials, activities and play partners. Our students thrive through positive, authentic relationships in a supportive environment that challenges each child to think creatively and advance to the next educational level.
