I thought it was time to share some alphabet activities for preschoolers. Alphabet activities and How Wee Learn definitely seem to go hand in hand.

Learning Activities for 3 Month Old Babies

In…
Reading Activities: Name in a Jar
An oldie but a goodie for you today, my friend. A flashback 8 years ago when I was beginning to teach Sam his letters and sounds. Spoiler alert – it worked! Here is that post on teaching letters and sounds from all those years ago … We are playing our way to learning to read!…
Books that Explore the Seven Continents for Kids!
I was never good at Geography. Do you know why? When I was in Grade 3 I was given a test to find out my preliminary knowledge about where things were located on a map and I received 4/50. From that moment on I deemed myself terrible at Geography and shied away from learning all…
