Mom's to kids not yet in school. Share Curriculums?

Do any of you do curriculums with your pre-schooler or younger? I bought a few, have some subscriptions online, and have started to make a few of my own using photoshop so my two year old can do them. Most of my curriculums are for 3-4 year olds, but have made a ton for 2 year olds. 

Anybody want to share or trade activity pages or worksheets? I can email you a ton so you don't have to purchase them either. 


What do your curriculum consist of? We do letter of the week, color/shape of the week, number of the week. Everyday is a worksheet, coloring page, cut and paste activity, arts and craft activity, plus a movie to fit the theme (whatever I pick for the letter). I just restarted letter of the week, so this week was the letter A, so we watched the movie ants, since ants was our theme this week. (I also made a homemade ant farm).

Let's exchange ideas!

If you have a two year old, let me know. Most of these are too advanced for a two year old, but I have been modifying them and making my own. My daughter loves it!

I am a shitty Mom.  WOW.  No, I don't do that, but I think it sounds like a great idea.  I had never been around kids except when I was one, so I have no clue what to do with him besides read and play.

We move lot and don't have alot of friends. I have to keep my kids busy. Most of this I gathered when my ODS was younger.

How old your son, GoRed, I can send you some fun work pages that he will like. All two year olds love to glue shit!

DD didn't really learn alot the first time around, but she sure had fun trying! She only knows red, blue and pink right now. And counts 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, etc. But it keeps her busy.

He's 2.5, 3 in August.  I'm always struggling to find activities with him, besides walking the dogs, playing at the beach, etc.  Parenting a young child doesn't come naturally to me.

Im really not doing much right now with Natalie, but I would really like to. I used to have a subscription at enchanted learning when I was still teaching, too.

I have some lesson plans my friend sent me from the preschool I used to work at, from the 2 year old room. I will have to pull them out and see if there is anything good.

I will take whatever you have, you have my email right? If I find any good ideas in the materials my friend sent me I will pass it your way, too.


dltk is one of my favorite websites for this stuff, too. I have used it a lot in the past.


Also, what's it called? The reading one, it does stories and stuff?? starfall, i think?

I have megabytes of stuff. Lol. Send me your e,ail and I'll email bomb you and Paula everything I have. Kid spark has a great 3 year o,d curriculum, all laid out by day. But Ava is a slow talker and not quite there yet. I have to modify a lot of it.
