Perhaps it is the company I keep or the great big flashing beacon screaming, “WE HOMESCHOOL! IT IS AWESOME!!” But for one reason or another, homeschooling is certainly surrounding me as the hot topic right now.

I’ve gotta say… I love it.

Whether you homeschool already, you are considering homeschooling, you might think about it down the road, or even if you are not considering homeschooling but have little ones, I have a great resource for you today.

This resource is all about everyday learning activities. I am talking about activities found naturally within a day that are FULL of learning. They emerge entirely on their own; we just need to slow down to see them.

This mini ebook is called 20 Deep Learning Activities Found in Everyday Life. 

As I was writing Kindergarten at Home, I kept mentioning little things we can do throughout a typical day with our little ones outside of structured, planned activities that are loaded with natural learning.

Things that we already do every week, that when we slow down to include our little ones, will provide them with SO many learning opportunities.

Let’s look at something as simple as making a grocery list.

This is, of course, full of literacy learning. It can also be full of sorting (by aisle/department or by food group). We can also introduce the idea of price rounding to get an approximate running total of our groceries. We can set a budget that we need to stick to, working on some big math concepts. We can add in some flyers or coupons, developing both literacy and numeracy at once. I mean, once you stop to really think about a task, you can see SO MANY opportunities for learning!

Now you might think, “My goodness, this would take half a day!!” Yes, it definitely could. But think about that day. Your child would be immersed in huge learning, real-life learning, right beside you simply because you took the time to slow down and allow your child into your world. Now we move right into that connection parenting, and we are building relationships.

Pretty remarkable, right?

So I bring you my mini ebook, 20 Deep Learning Activities Found in Everyday Life, full of ideas like that. I hope they are helpful to you and your little ones. You can download your free copy right here:
