So I culled our books and found our top five favorite books on food and planned activities around them. Check out …
Toddler Playschool: X is for X Marks the Spot {free printable}
I can’t believe that we’re almost to the end of the alphabet in our Toddler Playschool adventure. X proved to be a tricky letter to create a lesson plan around. But thanks to a glimpse of an episode of Pete and the Neverland Pirates, the basis for this week came to me. Pirate activities are …
Toddler Playschool: W is for Weather {free printable}
