The Messy Mama Brain Dump is a feature where I talk about anything and everything related to parenting, being a mom, and kids.
I wasn't sure if I should put this under mama brain dump or Schoolin' with my Homies. But ultimately I decided to do it under Messy Mama because this doesn't just apply to homeschooling parents, but also so they can learn before going to Pre-k.
Every week I alternate between: Colors, ABC's, numbers/counting, animals, emotions/feelings, body parts, and shapes.
I will TRY to post this every week, but we'll see how that goes.
Monday – Alphabet
Letter of the Day: A for Apple
Paint with apple halves to stamp big red “A”s.
Hunt around the house for things that start with “A” (apple, apron, animal).
Trace the letter A in cinnamon or sugar for a fall scent sensory twist.
