One main purpose of this site is to help me organize all those GREAT ideas I find, that J is not quite ready for (or I’m not quite brave enough to try yet). I tend to save them as favorites on my web browser and then forget about them…. or there’s just TOO many to search through to decide what might fit in our day/week. In my never-ending quest for organization, I’ve decided to link activities here, based on the subject matter covered and the age I will most likely try them. Fell free to capitalize on my many hours of searching for perfect activities! You will probably find this especially useful if you have a little one older than J. If you try any of the activities, I would love to hear your perspective on them. Please share lessons learned with me too!
