Educational time at home.

Trying to incorporate learning time at home is hard, especially when we live in a tablet era with our little ones navigating the i pad better than the adults. 

These are a few website that I don't mind the kids playing on.


1.)  ABC Mouse This is my four year old's favorite app on the I Pad. I have noticed her phonics and letter number recognition have improved greatly since we got this app. The children enjoy getting tickets for their accomplishments and I enjoy the fact that I don't have to feel guilty giving them the tablet to play "games" 

 
2.) Cake Decorating  When my children started out using a real computer, the mouse was the hardest thing for them to master. This website helps them gain more confidence on the mouse by dragging and clicking on decorations while they decorate cake.

3.) Bunny Math Race- My 5 year old is just starting addition and subtraction. This is a free app on Iphone and Ipad and also on the Andriod Marketplace .

Non- Technology learning.

Between all the moms on the island we have a good stock of education games and learning aids.

I have also printed out some learning pages from Beth at www.123homeschool4me.com, for them to work on during the day.
