The learning never ends!

I am always looking for ways to keep these cute kids busy in the summer. This year, I decided we needed to keep the learning going.. and not spend the summer 'wasting away' their brains in this desert heat!
So, I started a preschool room. It is set up in Evan's room, since he doesn't even sleep in there anymore. The colors on the wall were perfect for a bright, fun room full of learning activities.

This is where we start our day, going over the weather and days of the week. The kids love to take turns switching out days, months and the weather.

We then move on to the alphabet. It's amazing how far Evan and Kendal have come since we started this. Repetition is the key to learning!

We then review our numbers.

We also have our 'centers' just like in Kindergarten.. This is the painting center.

This one is more for Cade. I have found some great homeschool websites with worksheets for him to work on and get to know more about each planet. He has also been working on math, history and literature as well.

My organizational center for toys, puzzles, etc..

This is our reading center, and right next to it is the blocks center.

The kids all love this room, and it has been so fun to work with them this summer. I love to see their minds working and learning. It has been a great experience for the kids, and also for me. They are excited to start school in a few weeks, but until then we will enjoy the rest of the summer in our school room. After that, I will focus more on Evan and Kendal, and the older ones as they want.
