Does your child seem discouraged about their ability to draw? My son tends to shrink back from drawing opportunities. He usually states that he can’t draw a certain object and asks me to do it for him. I know his sensory processing disorder effects his body awareness, hence, his writing and drawing. But it just […]

Solar System Craft
I think my boys favorite home preschool unit to date has been our study of astronauts. In fact, it’s been almost two months, and I can’t seem to get them very interested in our next unit (Thanksgiving) because they’re so obsessed. This solar system craft came about as I was perusing our craft cabinet in […]
Felt Turkey Pattern Play
November is in full swing which means that we are filling our time with Thanksgiving learning and play activities! I’ve been meaning to teach my son Loopy (3.5 yrs) about patterns, but never got around to it till now. Inspiration struck this week when I saw the abundance of felt in our craft closet. What […]

I can’t imagine any kid that would be against this tasty way of learning! I’ll let her explain the process. Hi friends! Sorry it’s been awhile, I got […]
Books about Astronauts
After completing our unit on different careers, I had a better idea of what my son was interested in learning about next: Astronauts. So off we went to the library to find books about astronauts. Here are our favorites. Astronauts and Other Space Heroes by Sarah Thomson was full of so much information about individual astronauts […]
Sink or Float: Our Very First Science Experiment for Preschoolers
I’ve been doing some serious slacking in the science department of our preschool journey. I’m not sure why I put it off for so long. Most kids can’t get enough of the hands on learning and my son was no different. Our first science experiment was the classic sink or float test. Gather up […]
“Stained Glass” Pumpkin Craft
Our son really enjoyed making this pumpkin craft last year as a two year old. Now he’s excited to have it sprucing up our house for another season! Saw this fun little idea for a pumpkin craft over at Le Baby Bakery. I had all the supplies except contact paper. I understand that no home school […]

I love doing preschool unit studies with my sons. But sometimes I have a hard time coming up with a topic of study that will hold their attention. I decided to do a unit about different careers so I could discover their individual interests. Here’s a list of our favorite children’s books about careers. This post contains affiliate […]
