Circus Preschool Math and Literacy Centers

Kids love circus!! We watched a show a few years ago before lockdown, and this inspired me to create this Circus Preschool Centers. It got loads of fun and engaging activities for your little ones, from learning letters, vocabulary, counting, fine motor skills and much, much more!

Playdough Mats - Fun Play and a Lifetime Access!

Do you love playdough mats? We are obviously big fans of playdough and the DIY picture mats that go along with it! Through the years of making these playdough mats for my kids (incorporated in my thematic units), I have been receiving requests from followers to produce a "just the mats" printable file. So I finally gave in to the requests and created a LIFETIME ACCESS to our playdough mats collection.

Playdough mats are so much fun!! Use these for hands-on learning and for your fine motor skills activities. Roll, cut and form the pictures on the mats using playdough and trace the words for your vocabulary skills. Use these in any of your center and thematic activities.

Directed Drawing Activity Pack - Seasons

Heard of directed drawings?  These are instructional materials that provide step-by-step instruction (through illustrations) on how to draw an object.  I started making these last year in my shop because Vito enjoys this activity.  He was frustrated that he doesn't know how to draw, so I made him a few of these, and he loved it! He gained confidence in drawing, and with practice, he can now draw some objects on his own.    Anyway, I'd like to introduce our Seasons Themed Directed Drawing Pack.  Below you will find previews and ideas on how we use these at home (and, of course, can be used in schools too!).

Life Cycle Activities for Kids

Life cycles have fascinated my kids throughout the years. We often worked on them during springtime, but I would sometimes add them in our animal or plant studies too.  I’m often asked how do I introduce this subject area to my kids and I would always say that it really depends on their age and interest. For the young ones, it’s all about play-based learning and storytelling.  While for older kids, they are drawn towards the details and the science behind them.

To give you an idea, here’s our progressive way of learning the life cycles.
