*Brightly Beaming Resources: We are using the Preparatory Curriculum for 2-4 year olds for Shrade.
I try to blog about what we do for each "weekly" activity. It takes us about 2 weeks for each theme. We will be done with the Prep Curric when we reach 26 lessons! Not many more left. :) Then we will start The Letter of the Week Curriculum for preschool age.
*Brightly Beaming Baby: Nursery Age starting at 3 months for Jessna (lessons are for up to 1 year). She is now 6 months old. Each lesson is 2 weeks long and includes literature, poems, nursery rhymes, Bible, speech & vocab, classical music, lullaby, foreign language (I'm going to do some Spanish and sign language), baby game, exercise and baby massage. I love these lessons because they give me a focus on what I can do to entertain my baby! It's fun and she loves it.

ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you have a great month of activities planned! Do you have other moms that you can get together with and do activities with?
I sometimes get together with other moms, but because I do things on a whim at times, it's just easier to go places by myself and sometimes I meet moms there! I want to do a co-op preschool, but don't know if that will happen. I have SO much I need to do.
