Vito currently loves using our Golden Beads material. We are done with presentation of materials and have worked the layout (Montessori Decimal System with Golden Beads) as well (we will do this again) and now he enjoys playing the Bank Game.

Chinese New Year Mini Preschool Unit
Tuesday, January 22, 2019
Are you celebrating Chinese New Year? We are learning about this Chinese national holiday for familiarity and for the boys to understand that some Filipino traditions were adapted from Chinese culture.
Vito and I worked on a brief Chinese New Year Unit last week. The resources we used were from the Chinese New Year Mini Preschool Learning Pack I created for him years ago.

Our Montessori-Inspired Shelf for Winter
Tuesday, January 15, 2019
I’m back after a few weeks of hiatus! I’ve been focusing more in our homeschool that I didn’t have time to write a post about our activities for the past 2 weeks. Anyway, here’s the shelf that I've setup weeks ago and the main theme for this setup is “winter”. This year, we’ll be doing small study units for science and culture but we will work our way thoroughly (taking our time) in reading, writing, and math.
Using the Four Seasons Addition Clipcards
Monday, November 19, 2018
Enjoy the fun in learning addition with this winter-themed addition clipcards. Vito is currently obsessed with adding numbers so I made these seasons addition clipcards for him to work with to help enrich his skills in addition. These are so easy to prepare and use. Below are the recommended manipulatives that you can use with the cards for a hands-on approach in learning addition.

Christmas Preschool and Kindergarten Learning Materials
Friday, November 16, 2018
Christmas is just around the corner, and I am so excited to share what’s within our preschool unit in this happiest and most colorful time of the year! These activities are perfect for home and school settings. They are designed for preschoolers and kindergartens specifically for kids ages 3 to 6 years old.
Thanksgiving Pattern Blocks Spin and Build
Sunday, November 11, 2018
Here’s an activity that Vito and I enjoyed playing together lately. It is an extension work for our Thanksgiving Preschool Unit where we integrate math (shapes) to Thanksgiving symbols and icons. We call this activity Spin and Build because we spin the spinner for the shapes we will be using to form the puzzle.
Fun Thermometer Reading in Space
Thursday, November 1, 2018
Vito loved our penguin thermometer reading activity , and because of this, I have to include something similar in our Outerspace Preschool Mini Unit. This is great for learning how to recognize “tens” and how to read a thermometer.
Seasonal Pattern Blocks Mats (with FREE Download)
Friday, October 19, 2018
I am so excited to share the latest craze in our house lately, the pattern block mats! I made these printable materials because my boys are totally obsessed with making “pictures” and objects using our pattern blocks (bought from Amazon). We own this and the magnetic version since Vito was a baby but the boys’ needs keep growing and I decided to provide them with picture mats so they can create not just plain pattern block objects but objects that integrate in beautiful backgrounds for a more imaginative play. The best thing about this printable is that we can print and reuse them over and over again!

Learning About Leaves
Thursday, September 27, 2018
The last week of September has brought us to explore more about leaves. The rapid change in colors and the rate of how they fall from the trees has ignited Vito’s interest on leaves thus we worked on some activities based on these interests. Below are some of the activities (and ideas) on leaf studies and links to the resources that we used.

Fall Autumn Preschool and Kindergarten Learning Materials
Wednesday, September 12, 2018
I am so excited to present our beautiful Fall Autumn Preschool Unit Pack (also for kindergarten). I carefully designed this one big bundle so my child and yours will have the best experience in learning about this colourful autumn season. Like all of our MEGA PACKS, this unit contains 30 hands-on learning activities your kids will truly enjoy. Below are some of the activities that we have started working on already. Some of the materials included in this pack are old activities from last year, which I haven't shared and published, and Vito still loves doing them!
Life Cycle of Apples for Preschoolers
Sunday, September 9, 2018
Autumn time is apple season and the perfect time to learn about them! We started our "apple" week last Monday, and today, Vito and I just finished learning where apples came from. I was so inspired by our Water Cycle activity (Vito loved this activity so much!) that I decided to do the same approach with our Apple study.
Learning about Insects for Home and School
Thursday, September 6, 2018
Assembling unit studies is one of the things that I like doing. Last summer, we worked on insects and I made a compilation of work which the boys did over the years on learning about these amazing animals. You will absolutely love these ideas and they are perfect for kids from 5 to 10 years old.
Montessori Teens and Tens Extension Work
Sunday, September 2, 2018
A few weeks ago, I shared some of the extension works that Vito was doing on the teens and the tens on my Instagram. We didn't own the complete set of Sequin Boards, so I decided to make our own materials to do more exercises and not be limited by the boards. I have talked about learning about teens the Montessori way here and in this post. In this post, I will give you a walk-through of how we learn more about the tens and how we practice counting bigger numbers (from 11 to 100).
