No time for flashcards
I have found the coolest site (thanks Tania!) and had to share it with all you hot mamas out there. The name of the site is called...no time for flashcards. LOVE IT! As I studied child development in college, class after class stressed that flashcards, especially for wee ones, are not developmentally appropriate. Learning should be fun, hands on, and a result of exploration. After all, that is how children learn best. The site is FULL of fun projects and games to encourage learning. They even have thematic alphabet lessons that include a song, art project and recommended books for each letter. So cool. Check it out and let me know what you think. By the way, I'm thinking of starting a joint blog (I know, ANOTHER blog ;)) for mom's. It could be a place where we could all post fun kid activities, recipes, local sales, cleaning tips, craft projects etc. etc. Anyone interested?
