2 Awesome Blogs/Websites for Enrichment Activities at Home!


Resources, resources, and more resources! There is so much out there… It is hard sometimes to select the best ones. I have been researching for a while for a few resources to teach my twin girls skills that they need at this age. I have found two marvelous websites… one from a Montessori teacher and the other one from a homeschooling mother. They are both filled with great activities for little ones!

The first one is www.justmontessori.com This is an excellent place to find age appropriate activities for a 2 year old or even younger. The Montessori philosophy focuses on developing a child’s independence while also working on motor skills, cognitive development and problem solving. If you have an infant or toddler (that is not ready yet for a more academic learning) make sure to check out the “Practical Life” and “Sensorial” tabs on the site. Those pages offer plenty of activities that can be done with little ones!

The second resource I would like to mention is www.confessionsofahomeschooler.com This is one is even better… The website is full of great resources from Pre-K to Primary to Famous Artists, Composers and Science Units. Yes… on this one you have to purchase the download of the PDF file or get the CD by mail, however, it is very affordable!

Make sure to check these out! Enjoy and have fun with your little munchkin!
