HoneyTree provides one of the safest and most renowned after school daycares in Roanoke, VA.

Throughout the year, our children enjoy special field trips to bowling, skating, and our private aquatic center with gymnasium when school is out. Many of our school-age children also participate in our Summer Camp program. This year's theme is HoneyTree All Stars!
Expanding your child’s mind . . . one day at a time.
Homework/educational enrichment area – We provide a designated place for working on homework or other educational enrichment activities. Also on hand are word games and crossword puzzles. We even challenge your child with science projects and brainteasers!
Art Center – The art center is a place for children to show their most creative artistic side. It is filled with materials appropriate for the skill level that will inspire your child to create masterpieces.
Board Games Area – The board games area has a shelf filled with board games that interest the children and several places for them to be played at a table with chairs, a low table with floor pillows, or perhaps even a rug on the floor for lounging and playing.
The Chill Zone – The chill zone is an area for relaxation and relating to peers. It has comfy, school-aged children-sized furniture that encourages students to stop and “chill.” Things like pillows, books and magazines, a sofa table for game play so conversation and relaxation abound here. A TV is used sparingly!
Book or Library Center – The book or library center is a quiet area for your child to look at a variety of books. Age appropriate magazines are a favorite choice for school age students.
Technology Center – This center has a Smart Board and is setup for students to use in both group and individual activities as school enrichment. They also have access to iPads loaded with many games and educational activities.
Drama Area – Here we provide the opportunity, accessories, and space for students to use the expressive arts. Karaoke, acting, singing, and dancing might all be encouraged.
Transportation and Block Center – Your children learn spatial development, logical thinking skills, small motor skills, and get lots of practice interacting and playing in this popular center.
Character Counts Program
The CHARACTER COUNTS! program is taught at HoneyTree’s after school daycare. This program enables adults to teach the Six Pillars of Ethics –responsibility, respect, caring, fairness, trustworthiness and citizenship — in ways that children of all ages may understand. This program provides a unified approach, which, in and of itself, strengthens the program.
For more information on CHARACTER COUNTS! and the National CHARACTER COUNTS! Coalition, a project of the Josephson Institute, visit www.charactercounts.org.
