Always love the content you share and your children are so adorable, i loved your son's double hat lol. My daughter is 3 years and 7 months, she loves learning and although i can't home-school her, I enjoy teaching her all that I can when we're home ... everything that you share helps a lot. God bless you guys.

Really great video! I needed a more in depth look at the curriculum and how people used it to know if it will be a right fit. Do you happen to have a link for that book list that goes with each letter you mention at about 20:20 I think it is? I have looked on her sight but can’t seem to find it. Again love your videos they are giving me confidence to get started with my daughter.

Found the answer to my question at the end of your video! You have a teacher's master copy where you reprint what's needing to be. That's what I was thinking would make most sense with more than 1 child. I don't think my question made sense in that last video lol, but none the less got my answer. Thank you! 🤗

I love this video. Thank you for showing the curriculum in action. I will be using it this fall for my 4 year old. Where did you get the small colored counting blocks for the Caterpillar graphing page?

@PursuingPeace 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks Sara! I got them on Amazon but it doesn't look like they're available anymore. 😔 But you can use anything to graph. Sometimes we use Cheerios or beans, sometimes I have her use a dry erase marker to color it since it's laminated. The Dollar Tree has some foam color cubes too if you really want cubes. Hope this helps! ❤

@annewhittemore3771 3 жыл бұрын

I feel like I’m seeing a lot of people in the comments starting this with their 2 1/2 year old. Is it commonly doable for that age? Or even starting around their 2nd birthday? I know it totally depends on the child, but I want to have a rough outline of what I want to do the first few years. My son is 18 months.

I thought this was worksheet heavy but now I see how interactive it is!!! I am keeping this in mind for my youngest two. It looks easy to implement once all the printing, cutting, prep work is done. I also have two older kids who are elementary age, so I always need open and go & simple for the younger two. Would you say this is simple to implement daily? Is it really $24 for the complete download of all this material?!

Hi Dina❣️ Bre here. I have two littles, Zion (2 1/2)& Azara (8 months). I have a big boy, Vaughn Jr (10). This is our first year officially homeschooling :) I agree, KZfaq has been so so helpful in this journey. I’ve mentioned to you before that my 2 1/2 year old is nonverbal autistic and numbers and letters are his preference when it comes to play so we use a lot of ABC 123 when it comes to his therapy. He has mastered his number order up to 20 and has mastered ABC order. The curriculum looks amazing. I noticed your little doing a dot to dot page. Myl Zion loves dot to dot! Also, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom is his fav book at the moment💙 IG: @thebarnesmama

Yes! Hi Bre! Oh this would be great for your little one! Plus it has such great ideas that can inspire you to customize it to your needs. Thank you for leaving a comment. I'd love to keep up with you and learn from you. Are you homeschooling your 10 yr old too?
