I don't know about you but I love love love blogs that are super easy for me to find what I am looking for from the tabs on the top of the page. I am attempting to give this blog a makeover that will hopefully be more user friendly and super duper easy to find what you (and future me) are looking for. With that said, Preschool at Home is kind of under construction for the moment and may be for a little while since I am not the most tech savvy person in the world. If you have any suggestions or something you'd love to see on here, leave a comment and let me know.

We have just completed our "I" week which was a wonderful week including insects, inch measuring, iguanas, and inchworms. We were just at the mall this morning and my 20 month old pointed out an "I" that she saw on one of the store signs!! Must have been a productive week!!

This must have been the week that I was packing up the apartment because there wasn't much to show for our "f" week.... sorry

Almost Everything from this F week came from Confessions of a Homeschooler. If you haven't checked this blog out yet... you must... it is awesome... and FREE!

We printed out the number cards and placed the corresponding gold fish on the numbers.
My bubba is practicing showing the numbers on his fingers. (Something that is pretty tricky for him)

We did some measuring with gold fish. This is a great way to introduce measuring to your child. Instead of using a ruler or yard stick, ask, "How many fish long is this, or match box cars?"... you get the idea.

Fish coloring page-

Another tip for you parents that have kids that aren't big fans of coloring, ask them to lay out the color crayon they want for the fish, water, shy, whatever... this helps my little man focus on one area of his page at a time instead of "scribbling" all over his paper. (Which isn't coloring in my book!)
