Why We Are Different
Global Education
We offer your child a “global education” – one that prepares them for a world that becomes more interconnected every day, a world in which one city, one school, or even one family can boast the representation of several cultures. We give a broad approach to their learning by pairing a curriculum of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Mathematics (STEAM) education with a second language enrichment that gives all ages exposure to another language.
Language Immersion
Learning a second language at an early age can be beneficial for all children. Whether that second language is through Baby Signs for our infants, or being able to count in Spanish – our program teach developmentally appropriate skills in all of our classrooms.
Giving Back
Part of being a global citizen is to show children the importance of giving back to our communities, both locally and globally. The character development portion of our program does just that through our Heart Projects. From making little dresses for children in Africa, to raising money for children with cancer through Alex’s Lemonade stand, our kids see first hand how their time and projects make a difference in another child’s life.
AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM
Passport to Adventure Club
We carry our language immersion curriculum over to our afterschool programs too! We offer pickup for Passport to Adventure Club for many of our locations and have several onsite programs at elementary schools near you.

Big Blue Marble Academy Mission
All children deserve the opportunity to reach their highest potential. We provide that opportunity by igniting a child’s natural curiosity through a curriculum that focuses on global education, language immersion, and character development through giving back to communities around the world.
What parents say about BBMA….
I wanted to take the time out to let you know we appreciate you and all the workers at the Big Blue Marble Academy. I know we’re only a week in but there is a big difference in childcare from Adam’s previous school. Keep up the GREAT work!
Jessica R.Parent, BBMA Stevens Creek, Augusta GAI feel lucky to have found a daycare we like so much. I am never disappointed with BBMA Friendswood. Communication is essential and I can always rely on the staff. I trust them completely and my son always looks forward to going to school. They keep him entertained with plenty of activities and they always made us feel like family.
Cassie N.Parent, BBMA Friendswood, Friendswood, TXWe came to BBMA after a terrible and tragic experience at another child care facility. Leslie and Kirsten have gone above and beyond for our family, and have proven to care greatly for our children. I have looked at other daycares that were more convenient location wise, but we go out of our way to keep our children here. We appreciate all they do!
