Sneaking veggies in smoothies and muffins is my go to! Lucky enough to own a super powerful blender that even kale is no match for. Kiddos aren’t the wiser if there’s some strawberries or bananas in there to sweeten it up. Cauliflower is a good one when you don’t want to over power the flavour. I’ll add hemp hearts/seeds to all my pancake batters for added protein.
I also agree with the article! It’s great for getting them to explore! I often just set out a plate of different things BEFORE the dreaded “SNACK?!” question comes and sometimes(!) it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Good luck!
Today we altered the tree archery by throwing rocks into a small puddle. This led to 90ish minutes of deeply focused play for my 2 year old, he rarely focuses for longer than 10 minutes on anything! He made rock piles in the puddles and asked to go on a stick hunt. We found the perfect stick to make rock soup and drum. Then he pretended to be Giant Alex from Paw Patrol, yelling Fee Fi Fo Fum while stomping around the yard. The only prompting I did was asking him to aim rocks at a puddle and I guarded the perimetre, no fence and we’re beside a street. Great morning!
These have been so helpful! Thank you! I’ve also been naming right/left arms and legs when getting dressed every day.
Sarah! That’s amazing! Sorry for just seeing this now. Yes, I’d love to be connected with other families in the area that you know. And of course, would love to connect with you whenever you’re back in the area!
Drum roll! After a ton of research I invested in… an Erin Condren planner for teachers and LOVE it. It’s so beautifully designed and it’s layout is flexible enough that I can adapt it for our needs. Highly recommend! :)
Thank you!! Oooh, I can’t wait to see what you guys create! I’ll look into the link you sent! We’re doing pre-K 3 and a pre-k 4/bridge for my two daughters this year and I’m looking for something to keep the lesson plans and daily learning activities in one place. So many of the planners I’ve found are geared for older kids. They’re beautiful, but I don’t need to track attendance and do grading charts at this stage, you know what I mean?
Thank you everyone! I love the idea of an inbox too. And I forgot the fun of pipe cleaners. I’ll pick up some modeling clay too.
The ones I’m currently listening to are…
– The Homeschool Sisters
– The Bible Project
– Conversations with John & Lisa Bevere
– Sex Chat for Christian Wives! :DI’m really bad at sitting still too, and I totally understand about the double nap situation too, good luck momma!
Hi Erin, thank you for the tips! Esp on the espresso spoons :) we wil definetly ask friends and family about the unused dishes, and check out your product recommendation! 🙂
