Fall is approaching and that means it is almost time for apple pie, apple cider, and all things apple related! We will be exploring apples, discussing the different types of apples and talking about the parts of an apple. This will probably be a good week to make sure you have plenty of real apples on hand because many of the activities will be using them. Have fun!Read More →
It’s time for another life cycle theme! We did our butterfly theme earlier this year and now it’s time for frogs. I love these themes because it is so fun to let the kids see the metamorphosis of animals. These activities will focus on the changes a tadpole goes through to become a frog. If you would like, you can purchase your own tadpoles to let your kiddos enjoy the metamorphasis with their own eyes. I have used the set below before and had excelent customer service. The metamorphosis should take 6-8 weeks. You do not need to purchase the live tadpoles to enjoy thisRead More →
E-I-E-I-O we are going to the farm this week! So many fun activities this week all about animals and things on a farm. If you can, take the kids on a field trip to a farm and let them enjoy all the new sights and sounds (unless you already live near a farm, then the sights and sounds won’t be new. Haha!)Read More →
With the beginning of the school year upon us, I wanted to do an All About Me theme. We will focus on name recognition, body parts, and all the facts about ourselves. If you are looking for activities about the five senses or feelings, I already have weekly themes dedicated to those topics for you to check out. Lastly, I have marked some of the activities with an * because they are from a free printable pack. You will need to download the pack and scroll through to find the activity (I do not use the entire pack, only a few of the activities. YouRead More →
Update 8/24: I am now back from break and we start the All About Me! theme Monday, August 28th. The four themes that I missed while on break will be updated soon and I will edit the links below once they are ready. All future themes following the All About Me! theme will be posted on time. Thank you for you patience. Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that I will be taking a small break from posting the curriculum. I know many of you use the curriculum in your daycares/classrooms, but I have taken on a bit more than I can handle this summerRead More →
Birds can be found almost anywhere in the world. There are large birds, small birds, brown birds, colorful birds, and even birds that can’t fly! We will be exploring the different features of birds and what makes a bird, a bird.Read More →
It’s time for our space theme! I love exploring the topic of space with children. It really gets them asking lots of questions and I get to say “I don’t know, why don’t we look it up!” Then we all learn together. I feel like I could spend an entire month on this theme and the kids would still be into it!Read More →
It’s time for another one of our habitat themes with ocean animals. Kids will be spending more time at the beach and will likely come across many of these marine animals. We will explore the different types of animals found in the ocean and some of their amazing adaptations that help them live there.Read More →
With summer in full swing, picnics are a great way to get outdoors and enjoy these long days. We have lots of fun picnic themed activities planned which should be lots of fun! I am even going to try and have at least one snack outside with the kids so we can have our own picnic!Read More →
