Preschool At Home

We're doing preschool at home and just as expected and like life, some days are wonderful and other days, not so much. Preschool is just more of what we've done all along being parents, but with a bit more purposeful structure. This first year is probably more for me than Elle, as I'm learning a rhythm and structure and how to protect our time. It also has been an adjustment to incorporate a two year old boy, who desperately wants all my attention, into the mix.

Elle is eager to learn and although the preschool skills can be very challenging for her, she never gives up. She is always patient with me and Zane's interruptions and I'm definitely humbled by her example. Elle is a good thinker and a hard worker with a dear, sweet spirit.



Zane gets in on the preschool fun.


The Little Rabbit was a fun book that was a great springboard for learning the days of the week and making charts.



My Blue Boat brought a focus to colors and shapes. We also enjoyed a family picnic by a lake with our very own blue boat, but the wind didn't cooperate so we just ate with the boat.



Sorting and counting colored bears. Elle is patient to teach Zane.

Very sweet girl you have there, Kate. I so enjoy watching my children when they teach something to a younger sibling. It is a wonderful blessing. Keep having fun!
