Pre-Reading Skills ABC Book Word-Matching Game

Pre-reading skills will soar with this 2 item activity that teaches children to read the beginning letter in words with a hands-on word-matching game.

Children do not have to be reading to be exposed to reading skills. When my kids are in preschool we start looking more at the initial letters of different words.

This gives preschoolers … [Read more...]

40+ Activities for Preschool at Home

This back to school season is an exciting one for me. My husband and I have made the choice to homeschool our preschooler rather than send her to preschool 2 days a week. We did send our oldest to preschool for two mornings a week when he was 4 ½, but our situation is different now-where we live, how much preschool costs in our area, and the needs of our children. Each of us … [Read more...]
