Mommy and Jay Preschool

Mommy and Jay Preschool


Since we are going to be in transition for the next 7 months or so and I am not going to have a huge house to clean during that time, I figured it would be the perfect time to start doing some preschool with Jay.   We've been at it for about 2 1/2 weeks now and so far its going pretty well. We do preschool 5 days a week for about 20 to 30 minutes a day- nothing too time intensive. Which is good, because after about 10 to 15 minutes, Jay gets antsy.  


I found an amazing free Christian preschool curriculum on line from Motherhood on a Dime.  It's called "God's Little Explorers".  I highly recommend checking it out if you are thinking about doing some preschool with your little one. It's wonderful, as is her site as a whole.   I use it as a starting point and also add some of my own ideas along with idea's from a great little resource book called,  "A to Z Preschool".   I like it because there is not a lot of prep for anything we do and there are lots of fun activities because lets face it-he's 3.  Life is, and should be, about play at this point in time.  
Our first week we did letter X.  This is Jay's X page in his alphabet book. 

This week we did letter G. Our theme was Garden. 

Our math activity was counting seeds and placing the correct amount in the numbered  spots in an egg carton. 



Doing preschool with Jay has been a joy so far.  I also have to give props to his daddy for being home again so that I actually have the extra time to plan and teach Jay now :).  Amen for daddy being home!!
