I'm so excited to share this with you this year! It combines a little of everything that I think is important during the preschool years and answers the question, "How do I teach homeschool preschool?" At the same time, it is a great resource for daycares and full-time programs too!

What does this preschool curriculum cover?

* 52 amazing books appropriate for preschoolers!
* All the letters in the alphabet
* Counting and recognizing numbers 1-20
* Name recognition and writing
* Kindness and other values
* Science experiments & science reasoning
* Rhyming
* First Letter Sounds

* So much more!!

How does this preschool curriculum work?

I suggest spending about an hour every weekday in organized "school time." During that hour, mark a calendar, talk about the weather and your schedule, read the suggested book, and choose 1-3 of the suggested activities.  Over the course of a week, you will read the same book five times and do 5-10 activities related to the same theme you found in the book.

Outside of that hour, I encourage families to let their preschooler spend time playing and pursuing studies that interest them.

What teaching philosophies does this preschool curriculum follow?

After more than 20 years of working with young children, there are several concepts that I am passionate about. This curriculum is based on the fact that I believe...

1- that all children are capable of learning.  
2- that children are naturally motivated to learn about and explore their world.
3- that spending time with fun, exciting, funny, thought-provoking, and well-written books is the very best form of early literacy.
4- that play is the most effective form of education.
5- that being outside helps children self-regulate their emotions and enjoy learning and play more.
6- that real-world experiences are more meaningful that "seat-time" instruction.

As a result, you will see lots of activities that are book-centered, play-based, child-directed, outdoors-oriented. 

It is perfect if you are starting to homeschool and looking for a preschool curriculum for your 3-4 year old. It is also a great curriculum supplement for preschool centers or home daycares!

I still have questions?

Please send them to me!!  I would love to hear from you! You can email Carla at preschoolpackets at gmail.com.

Can I see some pictures?





Of course!! I'll be putting up more pictures over the next few days/weeks!

So, how much is it?

Similar sized electronic curriculum run $35-$50, but I wanted to make it affordable for everyone!  So, this full-year, full subject preschool curriculum featuring hands-on activities and science projects is only $19.99!!  You are welcome to use it for as many children as you personally teach, whether in your own home or a classroom! This curriculum is designed to cover an entire year of learning fun with a wide rande of activities and science experiments...that makes it only $1.66 per month or 38 cents per week! That's less than the cost of a donut!

AND, just for you, I set up a...

Science Experiment: Elephant Toothpaste

Update: "Elephant toothpaste" is a science experiment that I used to do with my high school students.  It is a strong multi-sensory demonstration that goes great with a lot of chemistry concepts. It is also very popular with preschoolers and homeschoolers!  The internet loves it too! It has now been read by more than 3.9 million people! This was the post that started the trend on science activity sites across the internet and "irl!"  Thank you for being here...I hope you enjoy it as well!  💕  This exciting science experiment works great in a discussion on reactions, as a demonstration, or as an actual experiment. We've also done seasonal twists with "elephant toothpaste" like making it in a pumpkin and using it for " reindeer toothpaste !" To use it as a science project, perform it once with your child, then ask your child what might happen if you changed the amounts or left out an ingredient.  Any time you experiment...

This sensory lesson includes a kindness activity for kids that is short and sweet,  and makes teaching kindness a beautiful thing! Learning to use kind words with our friends is one friendship lesson that I think we can never cover enough...kids always need reminding (sometimes adults do too)!  You will need these simple supplies for the kindness activity: cotton balls, course sandpaper, cup, Should I Share My Ice-Cream by Mo Willems Directly teaching good friendship skills, like using kind words, serves two purposes: 1- You can refer to the lesson when someone forgets or needs reminding, and 2- These skills are not intuitive for all preschoolers. This is a perfect age to bring empathy and kindness to their attention and help them cultivate these skills! You can use this lesson plan exactly as I did it with our kiddos, or adapt it to fit your group! 1- Read  Should I Share My Ice-Cream  by Mo Willems.   {Image below is an Amazon Affi...

Do you know what color giraffe skin is? Today we're using a capillary action science experiment to make our own giraffe skins in this fun giraffe science experiment project! (Read on...I'll tell you the color in a moment! AND I have a few more fun giraffe facts at the end! Anyway, go on and make a guess before you see the answer!) Fun Spot  Giraffe  Fact:  There are four different giraffe species:  the Masai Giraffe, the Rothschild Giraffe, the Somali Giraffe, and the Nigerian Giraffe.  Each has its own unique spot pattern.  Even more unique, every single individual giraffe has a different spot design.  Just like fingerprints on people and stripes on a zebra, spots on a giraffe are unique in every individual! Giraffe skin is mostly grey. (Were you right?) It's also really tough and thick.  The coat is a shade of tan with brown spots or patches.  Male giraffes actually get darker as they get older! To make our "giraffe ...
