Disney Princess Soft EVA Play Mat 4 X 4

February 2nd, 2012 Posted by T Akery | Preschool, Product reviews
The Disney Princess Soft EVA Play Mat is an option for kids to play on. The challenge for them starts when they have to put it together. It comes with 16 squares and numerous border pieces. Since it is a puzzle, it is meant for kids to assemble, which is nice.

Kids in the 5-to-6 year old range can easily handle the assembly part of the mat. However, kids younger than that may need some help with figuring out what pieces go where. It can get a little confusing if you have thrown the outer wrapping away because that is

Reinforcing Preschool Lessons

January 27th, 2012 Posted by T Akery | Preschool
Your child's preschool teaches colors, numbers and letters. But the time they spend teaching your child these important school-ready concepts is much shorter than most parents think. This is because there are also other lessons that your preschool has to incorporate  that take up valuable time, such as arranging bathroom times and playtime. While they may be effective at introducing the concepts, your toddler may not be able to completely grasp them without a little practice time at home. So, as parents, it is important to follow up some of the lessons to keep your child on track for

Perfect timing. Right after the holidays, and during the dead of winter, health officials plan to celebrate Healthy Weight Week. It’s a health observance that’s pretty much self-explanatory, right? And it’s a great time for parents take the time to think about their children’s weight, and whether they can be classified as overweight. In essence, this “celebration” of healthy weight can serve as a wake-up call to those who have small children.

At various times of the year, your Preschool is going to have fundraisers. In a way, this is preparing you for your child's future school life.

Santa Can’t Deliver Flying Ponies!

December 8th, 2011 Posted by Lori S. | Preschool
Great expectations. That’s what preschoolers have when it comes to gifts from Santa. Take my oldest son, for example. One Christmas he asked Santa for the Taj Mahal. You know, the colossal building located in India? As you can imagine, Santa did his best to fulfill a young child’s wishes, but on Christmas morning, my son exploded into tears when instead of the real Taj Mahal, the guy in the red suit had left only a scale model.
