Open Sesame Children's Learning Centers

Open Sesame Children's Learning Centers We are located in Dixon Illinois at 1101 Middle Road. Open Sesame has been in business in Dixon since 1975. We strive to honor the wishes of these families.

The Open Sesame social media business page is for anyone who supports Open Sesame. If posting center related group photos on our business page, please be aware that we do have families who wish

for their child(ren) to NOT be on our page. Open Sesame is family oriented and while we love to hear from our families, past and present, there are a few things we will not allow on our page. POSTS/COMMENTS WHICH CONTAIN, DISCUSS OR PROMOTE:

Open Sesame Children's Learning Centers believes that a well-designed curriculum should foster all areas of a child's development - physical, emotional, social, creative and cognitive. We strive to instill independence, self-discipline, and self-esteem in each child. We encourage children to actively explore their environments through their senses and through physical manipulation of objects. We emphasize appropriate interaction with adults and peers and develop our curriculum to meet both the needs of children as a group as well as the needs of the individual child. The job of a child is to learn through play.
