How I school with my 3 year old

What I do with my youngest girl literally only takes 10 minutes, 15 if she’s coloring 😊. She catch on quick to pretty much anything but only if she’s in the mood for it. & of course I love to use books from Jady A #teacherspayteachers & you can purchase from my favorite place #Amazon Here’s the books we use daily…….

These books are not mandatory, she likes to “do school” because her big sisters do & this is her BIG girl work!

... Read moreBuilding on my quick 10-minute 'school' routine, I've found so many ways to weave learning into our day, making sure my little one feels a strong sense of belonging in our homeschooling journey. It’s not just about the curriculum; it’s about making them feel like a valuable part of the family's activities, just like her older sisters. For 'things to teach a 3 year old,' beyond our structured time, we focus on playful exploration. For literacy, those JDA Learning Resources books are fantastic – we're currently working through 'PRESCHOOL LITERACY Get Ready for Reading' Book 2, focusing on matching letters and recognizing sounds. But we also just point out letters on signs, read picture books together, and make up our own stories. For basic math skills, our 'PRESCHOOL BEGINNER MATH' Book 1 helps with concepts like 'top or bottom' and coloring numbers, but we also count blocks, sort toys by color, or measure ingredients when baking! Writing practice, like tracing uppercase letters in the 'PRESCHOOL WRITING' Book 3, is a favorite. And you can't forget the classic 'ABC COLORING BOOK' for ages 3-5 – it's amazing how much they learn about letters and fine motor skills just by coloring. My little one loves coloring the letter 'D' and then finding things that start with 'D' around the house, like her favorite 'DOLL'! To foster that 'sense of belonging,' making learning feel like 'big girl work' is key. When her older sisters are doing their homework, giving her her own special 'PRESCHOOL' books makes her feel included and important. Even simple things like letting her 'help' sort laundry or set the table can build that sense of responsibility. We always talk about what she learned – 'What color did you color today?' or 'Can you show me the letter T you traced?' – validating her efforts and making her feel heard and valued. Learning truly doesn't stop when the 'school' books close! Throughout the day and even into the evening, we incorporate 'night and day preschool activities' in a playful way. For example, during discussions about 'night and day,' we talk about what happens: the sun for day, the moon for night, and what activities we do in each. Before bed, we might read a story and count the characters (math practice!) or discuss the plot (comprehension). In the morning, we identify colors of clothes or count how many spoons we need for breakfast. It's all about making everyday moments teachable. Even a simple 'I spy' game while driving can reinforce colors or letter sounds. These informal 'preschool activities' make learning a continuous and enjoyable experience for busy toddlers and their parents!
