Preperations/ finding things that the kids will enjoy!! and YOU!!??

So I have been thinking a reading a lot of homeschooling blogs for several months and something that I have noticed is that most homeschooling families follow a ciriculum that works for them.. And from my research I have found several circulums that I think are fabulous and they make perfect sense to me. However, most of the programs have preschool ideas or a little bit here and there and the ones that do offer it or are just a preschool program I am NOT willing to pay that for these programs when preschool is supposed to be fun and learning of your basic principals. So through my research I have found great blogs and wonderful Ideas some that we are already doing just because they are fun and my kids already enjoy them and they don't have to be a sit down and learn with mom type of thing..

Here is some of the things we have already started

this fun little card index is basically free and right now we are just doing the alphabet but I have made all the cards and when the time comes to do blends and make words we have these. I got this off of PINTREST and the blog site for this is http://pinkandgreenmama.blogspot.com/ who got them from this original blog http://thesnailstrail.blogspot.com/ and they both blogs have a ton of other fun things to do..

Here is another fun thing we have started

This is a very inexpensive little project. All it is is popsical sticks and velcro. My children and I make fun shapes and letters and really the possibilities with these are endless. Love this idea. Original blog http://tottreasuresnorthbay.blogspot.com/ she also has alot of fun little Ideas

I want to incorperate so much into my kids preschool experiences, and am really excited to get started.

My next post will be on different websites I like for printables and such.
