Balloon Color Lesson
Titus’ birthday balloons became an instant color lesson for my little girl. I let her play with colors and I helped her identify them. She’s still a long way from getting it, but these balloons provided a great hands-on color lesson. Homeschooling toddlers is so much fun!

Geography App
Once in a while, I let my kids borrow my IPad and play educational games on it. There was a time when they were into Plants vs. Zombies until I realized that my second son was getting addicted to it. So I installed a couple of educational apps on my IPad to deflect his interests. … Continue reading
