Introducing our Animal Characteristics (Vertebrate) Pack with tons of activity sets that will suite your young students' needs. This learning material is more than just sorting or matching activities. What we have in this learning pack are realistic illustrations of each characteristics for better retention of concepts and tons of hands-on learning opportunities for young students to work on. This Montessori Vertebrate Characteristics learning pack was basically designed for children ages 5 years and older.
With this learning material, your students will be able to learn the characteristics of amphibians, mammals, reptiles, fish, and birds through visual representation and hands-on activities. There are 8 characteristics provided for each animal for you to explore.

Montessori Inspired Blue Series - Learning about Consonant Blends
Wednesday, March 13, 2019
With Vito reading CVC words and sight words, we are now moving to the Blue Series. The Blue Series is a Montessori approach in learning consonant blends and digraphs. I made an entire set of blue series materials for Vito to use in the course of his learning. We will work on these materials and move on to the next set as he progresses. In this post, I will give you an overview of the materials and how we are going to use them.
It is important to note that the blue series (blends and digraphs) comes after the pink series. Once the child is familiar with letter sounds and can basically read CVC words (pink series) then he/she can move on to the blue series.
Introducing Life Cycles to Younger Kids
Tuesday, February 26, 2019
In our home, springtime brings a renewed focus on the topic of life cycles. As a parent, I am often asked how to introduce the concept of metamorphosis, larva, pupa and more to young children who may not be able to visualize these processes. It is a fascinating subject that is easy to understand. I begin by telling engaging stories that help children understand that just like humans, baby animals come from their mothers and fathers. Some animals start their life as eggs and then undergo a gradual transformation that ultimately leads to adulthood.
To help explain these concepts more effectively, we use a variety of learning materials that bring these life cycles to life for children. As we follow the "Montessori" philosophy in our homeschool, we prefer to use hands-on learning experiences that allow children to explore and learn in a natural way. Whether it's using specialized learning materials or observing real-life examples in nature, we strive to make learning about life cycles as engaging and interactive as possible.

Learning About Sharks for Kids
Tuesday, February 19, 2019
Vito has been really interested in sharks lately. We had some Shark Unit Study (Montessori Inspired Shark Study for Kids) years ago together with my eldest, but Vito was so young then that all he could ever do was do some simple matching activity with our Safari Toob Sharks. Now that he's a bit older, I prepared some simple activities for him to learn more about sharks, what's their difference with whales, and how similar are they to humans.

Asia Continent Study for Kids
Monday, February 11, 2019
We love to travel and going to places, thus geography is very important in our homeschool and I make sure that we do continent and country studies yearly. Now, this is not the first time I introduced Vito to Asia. We've worked with a lot of continent activities before and because he is much older now and able to understand and grasp concepts, I reintroduced Asia once again. Below are some of the works we had for the past 2 weeks we spent on learning about Asia. It took us 2 weeks to finish because he got sick within the time frame so we paused in between.
Here are some of the activities that we included in this year's Asia Study:

We use these types of learning cards in so many ways, and I have listed a few of those activities below for your reference. Enjoy!

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

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.
