Here is our list of the best preschool books for the letter Ff! Reading opens a world of imagination and creativity for our children. If I read to each of my children each day, both together and individually, than the day is a success! One of the main reasons why we do a letter of…
preschool leaf math
We love being outside in the fall. Leaves are constantly making their way into our house. And I’m not complaining! I love having natural items on our nature table, and even on our floor. I love finding natural ways to encourage mathematics learning. I thought of six very simple ways to encourage early counting and…
reggio-inspired math table
The Reggio-inspired math table encourages children to create one to one correspondence with numerals and small natural manipulatives. Our little table, a second hand find, is in our kitchen, and I regularly change out the materials we use to entice the kids to count and match numbers. They absolutely love it and are often working…
Home Preschool: Letter E
We are adapting our home preschool every day. While most of our learning and day is led by John’s interests {mostly in swords and weaponry — which I’ll share more in depth soon!}, I still like to follow a letter of the week. Why do we do letter of the week? Both of my children…
small parts play on the diy light box
Light play can provide children with the opportunity to explore dimensions, light rays, shadows, and the use of all their senses. I have admired light play and learning for quite some time. I love this engagement, but I was incredibly intimidated by the price tag on some light tables! I found a do-it-yourself version that is…
Montessori Fall Trays
We have been enjoying the fall season this September. Picking apples down the road, picking pumpkins, watching the combines harvest the corn and wheat. Watching and collecting the falling acorns. There are so many various activities and trays you could create for fall learning. I collected 20+ Montessori Fall Activities in a previous post, so…
How to make a Felt Elephant
We are creating a felt animal for every letter of the alphabet in our series: ABC Felt Animals! Both my son and daughter love these animals, and though they take some time and effort, it has been well worth it to see the phonemic awareness that these felt creations are reinforcing too!! I decided on an elephant for…

This list of suggestions for Montessori Fall Activities includes pumpkins, leaves, corn, apples, and acorns. This post is a part of an amazing giveaway from members…
reggio inspired play dough and math play
Play dough on the floor with small parts has become a norm here in our household. John asks to use the play dough quite a bit. Ever since we brought it onto the floor, with a mirror, on a board, John has gravitated towards scuplting and creating and thinking with it. You’ll notice that our…
mailing thank you notes {early writing skills}
Early writing skills begin long before a child can either write sentences or dictate a story. These skills are developed through free play and free drawing. Children can create stories through speaking. And children can create stories through drawing. I have been challenged, as a parent to a child who doesn’t love to draw or…
