Animal Kingdom 3 Part Cards and Charts
Thursday, March 8, 2018
I am so excited to share these beautiful learning materials I created for my boys. Mavi, my 9 year old is currently the one using this for school, but Vito ended up using some of the activities as he loves to work on his older brother’s materials too. So this is our Animal Kingdom Cards and Charts set. The main objective of this material is to introduce the different classifications/groups of animals to your child. We have an older version of this, and you can check it out here (Kingdoms of Life: Animal Kingdom) if you are interested. Anyway, allow me to discuss some of the highlights of this learning material below, so you can have a better idea of what you will be getting when you purchase this for your child or your school.

A Walkthrough of Animal Study for Preschoolers
Monday, February 26, 2018
This coming spring, I will be introducing the zoology album of Montessori early childhood to Vito. We did a couple of animal study last year but it was mainly for introduction and familiarization. This year, our homeschool activities will be in line with the album I bought from Montessori Parent. Of course, I will not follow the album word by word as I try not to replicate the Montessori classroom in our home and I don’t possess other classroom materials. But it will still be spontaneous and hands-on. In this post I will talk about the album, the materials I prepared, and my plans on how we are going to approach the “hands-on” aspect of the study.

Montessori Inspired Animal Classification Activities
Saturday, July 29, 2017
There’s nothing more interesting for my three years old than learning about animals. Aside from learning about the continents they live in, my boys also love to identify animals according to their names and classifications. Initially, Vito can only tell the difference between birds and fish, the rest he calls them “animals”. So I decided to expand this knowledge further by introducing the other three classifications: mammals, reptiles and amphibians.
Montessori Inspired Shark Study for Kids
Friday, June 16, 2017
My 8 year old Mavi is into sharks nowadays and asked if we can do a study about them. The last time we had a shark study was years ago, when he was 4 years old and this time he wanted to use our Shark Anatomy Model which he recently bought. This is Vito’s very first shark activity and he had so much fun learning with his big brother.

Montessori Inspired Insect Activities for Preschoolers
Tuesday, June 6, 2017
Here’s a summary of our insect activities for the past week. Most of these materials are old and reused and many of our activities were not planned but are based on Vito's interest because bugs and other tiny creatures appeared earlier than expected. Hope this post will give you some ideas on learning activities about these creatures!

What are Insects?
Thursday, June 1, 2017
Here’s a simple way of telling whether an animal is an insect: has 6 legs (with or without wings). This is something new to Vito, the word “insect”. He usually calls them with their real names like flies, bees, dragonflies, etc. but is not familiar with their category. Now, this is the first time that I introduced this concept, so he struggled a little bit until we started counting the legs!

Montessori Inspired Study of Snails for Preschoolers
Sunday, May 14, 2017
We’ve been getting a lot of morning showers which resulted in a bunch of snails popping up everywhere. Vito is loving it, now that he’s older, he’s enjoying the sight of these little fellows. One time, we caught one sticking out my husband’s car. Vito was excited! I made Vito watch as I removed the snail from the car, placed it in our disposable plastic container and brought it inside for him to observe (and explore).
Learning About Farm Families
Friday, May 12, 2017
I shared in my Instagram last week that Vito is obsessed with the concept of “mommy, baby, and daddy” thing. He would always pair our animal figures into families and do play pretend. This made me decided to introduce Vito to the farm animal families which I introduced to Mavi a long time ago (Farm Families - FREE Sorting Cards). There’s a deeper explanation why we teach kids about animal families. We teach kids to distinguish and describe objects to form them into bigger groups. Commonly, we group inanimate objects according to their size, shape and color which is an easy task for the child. But when it comes to real organisms with no definite shape, size and color, it is more difficult to recognize similar characteristics.
Introducing the Life Cycle of a Chicken to Preschoolers
Tuesday, April 18, 2017
We are learning about birds this month, and the first activity that we did was to look into the life of a chicken. The chicken, especially the hen is a popular subject for bird study because it’s convenient and always available for nature-study. Take for example in our case, Vito got really interested into chickens during our visit to the park weeks ago. He just can’t stop talking about his experience with the chickens in the park, so I decided to borrow some books in the library about chickens so we can talk about this bird more.


Animals Around the World Activity
Saturday, February 25, 2017
Vito is 39 months old.
There is nothing more precious in this world than seeing your kids work together peacefully LOL. During the midterm break, I prepared some activities which both of them can participate in. It’s not just about the academics, but my main purpose is for them to learn how to work together as a team and bond as brothers. So aside from learning about flowers, the boys also explored the animals of the world using our Montessori Inspired Animal Continents Activity Sheets. Mavi was so ecstatic to do this with Vito as he loves animals (he said he’s an expert) and geography.
Montessori Inspired Animal Continents Activity Sheets
Sunday, February 12, 2017
I am so happy to share our Animal Continents Activity Sheets. Mavi helped me assemble this learning material for identifying the different animals that thrive in each continent. We’ve used the Antarctica and Asia sheets already and I can’t wait to try the rest with Vito.
The Owl and Other Nocturnal Creatures
Tuesday, November 1, 2016
With all these Halloween decorations, Vito became fascinated with owls. We’ve been reading The Owl and Owl Babies for days now, and he loves looking at the pictures matching his animal figure. He would also pretend to to have big eyes and pretend flying around the house and say “Im owl Mommy”. So I whipped a few activities to help him explore this beautiful creature together with some night-time animals.
Preschool Animal Habitats using Sensorial Materials
Saturday, October 1, 2016
We were reading a lot of animal books lately that I decided to introduce Vito to animal habitats. I have no idea how to do it first, but then I realised that I have kinetic sand, some synthetic grass and unused ice in the fridge… enough materials to present three animal habitats of the world. Take note that there was no serious “lesson” in here. Everything was spontaneous, like a storytelling of animal homes. The concept was introduced as Vito and I played along. Much of the time was spent playing pretend, feeling and touching the grass, sand and ice!


Introducing Toddlers to Animals in Land, Water and Air
Saturday, August 6, 2016
I had two presentations for the land, water, and air animals. I first showed Vito what’s land, water, and air animals. We worked with action songs to demonstrate how animals move in land, water, and air. After I presented the pictures and the trays, Vito sorted out the animal figures I prepared for him.
