Home is where the learning is.
If you’ve spent much time here at The Stay-at-Home Teacher, you know that we have a deep love of sensory bins. Sensory play is such an amazing way to combine important fine motor skills with any other skill you can imagine! But it’s also a GREAT way to engage your kiddos! So today, I want […]
Holy moly, friends. I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited about a blog post! One of the best ways to sneak in lots of practice with your preschoolers is by picking your family games with intention!

I don’t know about you, but it can be so easy for me to get caught up in thinking I need all. the. things. to help homeschool LG. There are so many amazing manipulatives out there that it can be hard to remember what is necessary and what is just for fun. But no matter […]

I’m often asked what age I started working on academic activities with LG. Now that she’s almost 3, I’ve mostly shared resources that I create.

Hey friends! I’m so excited to share with y’all this collection of homeschool preschool resources for toddlers! Once LG hit about 2.5 years old, I decided to ease into a super relaxed homeschool preschool routine. In this post you’ll find lots of the resources we enjoyed! There are so many fun, hands-on activities that are […]
Summer is here! While we aren’t exactly ending a traditional school year at our house, we are putting some of our routines on hold to allow more space for play and family time.
