I have changed stay at home toddler to a different site.
STAY AT HOME TODDLER
There is now a complete years worth of lesson. Easy to navigate threw and more complete.
www.stayathometoddler.weebly.com
Teaching can be easy and fun
Why shouldn't you have fun while you teach your kids the abcs, how to count or what animal says moo. I think that kids learn best when they are having fun. I am setting out to teach my one and a half year old. I want to teach him how to be a good friend, how to show love, all the animals that live on a farm and so much more. I am writing this blog not even knowing if anyone will read it but hoping someone will find inspiration to have fun while teaching their toddler.
