I shared how to make a Montessori Alphabet Box a little while back. You can check out all the details on what box we use and what supplies we have for this important phonics learning time. Each letter has its own little box full of objects that begin with that sound. Today, I am happy to…

reggio inspired learning about shapes
I rarely get to see my (almost!) four year old son and my (almost!) two year old daughter playing nicely together. Dare I say collaborating? It simply doesn’t happen around here.

best preschool books for the letter Cc

lavender fizzy sensory dough
Today is the seventh month for the 12 Months of Sensory Dough series!! I did not know what to do for “Fizzy Dough”, but we made a volcano back in our Letter V Tot School, so I took the easy route and went with a good ol’ baking soda and vinegar chemical reaction. Check out the other…
Home Preschool: Letter B
I am taking our Home Preschool much easier than our Tot School days. With two little ones, it is difficult to fit everything in that I have in mind! May (my almost-two year old) and John (my preschooler almost four-year old) are my pupils. They are always together, so May tags along except during nap…

We love books in our house. We have piles and baskets and shelves and more baskets full of children’s and baby board books. I have been making better use of our library, but going there only seems to feed my desire to buy the books for myself. “Oh that was such a wonderful book, I…
