About Teach Your Littles At Home | Homeschool Preschool Activities for Busy Moms of Toddlers and Preschoolers

Do you wish there was a simple way to teach your 2 to 5-year-old children at home while they play? Are you looking for a simple roadmap you can follow to help guide you in creating the perfect learning opportunities that will fit into your busy days as a mom? Welcome! I’m Laurin Brainard from The Primary Brain and I am so glad you are here at Teach Your Littles At Home! I know how it feels to have little ones running around the house while caring for a new baby. I am always trying to find the next activity to do with my little ones while I take care of other little ones, cook dinner, and try to keep the house looking somewhat presentable. I have discovered that having a structured routine with my children is just what I need to keep our life running smoothly. Inside this podcast, I’m combining my 11 years as a classroom teacher, along with my own homeschool preschool experiences to help you find activities and ideas to keep those little hands busy learning. You will learn how to make academic concepts fun and hands-on without losing your sanity! We are going to simplify teaching your children at home so that you can have FUN while you learn and play with one another. So, it’s time to grab your favorite hot beverage (yes, I said HOT!) and tune in as we talk about how you can get started teaching your little learners at home! Now, get ready to make more memories than you ever dreamed of with your children!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
