There's no need for any structured curriculum for little ones. There's plenty of time to learn. We have to be careful we don't get swept up in the culture's demands..or even our own.<br /><br />Glad you're having fun and thanks for the comment!Kathleen Moultonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12185921937517327423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11582493.post-3082309990112950272010-10-18T11:04:01.709-04:002010-10-18T11:04:01.709-04:00I love this!

I recently was given a book to try with Asher for Preschool. I looked through it. It's very nice but I am finding that for this little stage before school REALLY starts for us I have been thoroughly enjoying doing and covering the necessary foundational things, but with WAY less structure and focus to just get through a book and do a unit. I'm just rather amazed and slightly turned off to what is out there for such a young age! I'm seeing that approach to just get through it can become the primary focus. I'm holding off on any curriculum for this year. He turns 4 in a few weeks. Right now the kids are into dinosaurs and the moon, sun, and stars and by their own initiation! We have had a BLAST spending lots of fun unstructured and yet educational time on those things. I hope to implement exactly what you speak of as we go along with homeschooling through the years. I can't help but see the benefit when utilized correctly. <br /><br />Thanks again for sharing.Renee Ockrinnoreply@blogger.com
