How many times have you heard that phrase in the last few months? As we are spending more and more time at home these days, I am always looking for creative and fun ideas for things to do with my preschool-aged twins. That is why I jumped at the chance to review some products from Chalkola when they reached out to me. Keep on reading to learn how you can snag a discount for a product of your own!

Last week, we spent one day talking all about farms – Old McDonald, animals, and barns! Art Project: Big Red Barn Animal Puppets Before we started our art project, we read Margaret Wise Brown’s Big Red Barn.

Yesterday, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of Earth Day! Teaching my sons to love the Earth, their home, is a no brainer to me. Why wouldn’t you want to keep your home safe and clean? There is so much beauty and wonder on our beautiful planet! We started off our lesson by watching PBS Learning’s Earth Day clip. I even learned things about Earth Day that I didn’t know about!

For today’s preschool homeschool theme, we are going to talk about bubbles. Some days the boys’ attention span is difficult to manage so items that I planned for the unit sometimes get thrown out the window. Today was definitely one of those days where they couldn’t complete activities and I couldn’t hold their attention. Art Project: Bubble wrap painting Materials needed: paint, bubble wrap, shape templates, paper plates, construction paper

This week, we took a virtual trip to Disneyland! I haven’t been to Disneyland in almost two years and the boys have only been to the Happiest Place on Earth once when they were a year old. To plan for our virtual trip, I scoured the Disneyland map to set up an itinerary for our day. YouTube is stocked with videos of all of the Disney Parks rides, entertainment and parades, so making a trip to Disneyland from home was easy but did require some advanced planning.

This year’s Easter celebration looked a lot different from previous years’. No family and no Easter events leading up to the big day. It was just hubby, the twins and me celebrating at home in the most simple ways. Easter Breakfast Our day started off with hubby making fresh banana pancakes, and I made a batch of scones. The boys played together while we got breakfast made, which is not their normal routine. They usually eat breakfast right after the get dressed, so I was impressed by their patience this morning.

Not only were our lives turned upside down because of coronavirus, we were also blessed with rain for days and days on end. How is it possible that we haven’t already completely lost our minds? Today’s lesson plan revolves around rain.

Today, the boys and I had a Pajama Day at home! Since we aren’t going anywhere anyway, pajamas have been our daily uniform. What’s the point of washing nice clothes or changing for that matter? So I decided to incorporate pajamas into today’s stay-at-home preschool lesson plan.

Today’s preschool homeschool theme was all about dinosaurs! This was one of my favorite lesson plans that I have put together so far. It also doesn’t hurt that the twins love dinosaurs.

* Background: We are all going through some chaotic and concerning times at the moment. On Friday, March 13, 2020, our family began our process of social distancing and staying put in our homes. That means we found ourselves with two preschool-aged children at home. I took it upon myself to continue their preschool education while we find ourselves coping with this change in our daily norm. Disclaimer: While I have Masters in Business Administration and Bachelors in Psychology, I do not have any teaching experience. Today’s preschool homeschool theme was all about transportation and vehicles.
