*Update: I will be adding new workbooks and tools to this post as we acquire them, so do not be surprised to see changes!
I have decided not to send Xander to a traditional preschool. Instead we will do home preschool activities. Now that we have finished the Mommy and Me ABCs, I gathered together the list of a lot of the preschool materials and activities we will be using. You can read about how I came to make the decisions I have here. I hope to cover the main subject areas (in bold) every week, but we will see how it goes. We also plan to have a preschool backpack he works from every week. Not every resource listed here will be used every week. Also, this may seem like a lot of schoolwork, but Xander asks to do his "work" (his term, not mine).

*Note: Keep in mind that my child is weird and asks for worksheets. Not every two and a half year old would. We also do not spend all that much time on them. I give him one page at a time. I pick the pages of each that are within Xander's abilities. Also, I put them in dry erase sleeves so that he can redo them.
