Here's a fun activity that Vito and I would do to practice identifying objects and their beginning letter sounds. I usually integrate this in our letter of the week activities or just play it on its own.

Winter Building Blocks Spin and Build
Friday, February 1, 2019
With the success of our Pattern Blocks Spin and Build, I didn't hesitate making another series of Spin and Build and this time it's using LEGO building blocks! Everyone loves LEGO and this is just a perfect extension work and play for creating 2D pictures using LEGO compatible blocks and mats or plates.

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.
Winter Themed 1-10 Counting Activities
Wednesday, January 2, 2019
If you love themed activities, you will surely love these winter counting printable activities we have in the shop. These materials promote hands-on mathematics and enable children to practice writing and do some fine motor skill works.
Ten Frames
Vito enjoys these “scenic” ten frames as I often call them. Currently, we have 3 different beautiful designs that can go along with any of your winter themes. Here Vito is working on our kids winter themed ten frames. He was disappointed that it didn’t snow here last Christmas so I gave him a few snowy themed activities. There are two types of activities included in our one to ten counting ten frames.Using the Four Seasons Addition Clipcards

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.
Christmas Themed Counting Activities
Monday, October 29, 2018
Can you believe that it’s Christmas time in less than 2 months? With this holiday season coming, I’d like to share this fun Christmas tree decorating and counting activity. I made this last year but didn’t make it to the blog and shop. The boys had so much fun putting “decors” into their tree with playdough. You might want to check this out.
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!

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.
