On this blog, I will share my ideas for an at-home preschool that I do with my children, ideas for surviving motherhood, library story time ideas, ideas for my various LDS callings, Family Home Evening ideas, and whatever other random ideas that I have. I borrow ideas from the world of great minds and will try to give credit as much as possible. Thanks for dropping by!

Tiny Tot Tip of the Month
Read aloud to your child EVERY DAY. It’s never too early or too late to start reading to your child. It doesn’t need to be for a long period of time, just a few minutes everyday. Experiment to find what time of day works best for your child: morning, right before or after meal times, bedtime, etc. Don’t worry if you don’t get all the way through books at first. Keep trying and keep it fun.
