I found this “Count the House” printable at Let’s Explore. B had such a great time racing around the house and counting these items. I lightly wrote the number in the box and he traced it. Looking at the picture, we sure do have a lot of chairs and rooms! I didn’t think the …
I was so excited the day that B figured out that he liked playdough! I decided if he was going to sit down and play with it for OVER an HOUR then I would get him more colors and I’d search for MORE ways to play with it! Here are some ideas for fun …
I found this Add It game at Confessions of a Homeschooler and she generously offers it as a free printable. This is how you play “ADD IT“: Pick a flash card, put it on the right side of the game board. Use counters to put next to each number. We used buttons. Use …
We had a Dora and Diego theme for B’s 3rd Birthday. I used “Fiesta Time! Birthday Party Planning Book and Printables” from Nick Jr. It included printable backpack faces (shown above) that we used to make party favor bags.

Preschool dice games are a fun and exciting way to practice counting, subitizing, number identification, adding, and more! Roll a ____ Games are one of our favorite types of preschool dice games!

B has a new interest in the show Team Umizoomi. I must admit that at first I thought the show was a bit lame but once I saw B’s reaction to it and how much he learns, I decided to get on board. I found these printable Super Shapes Puzzles at nickjr.com. They are similar …
