Little Seeds Preschool



So, this is what we have been super busy with the last few weeks. I was inspired by my friend Jenny to give my preschool a little make-over. We had fun painting the walls crazy-bold colors and creating little centers. I also came up with my own curriculum based on several internet resources and using bits and pieces of curriculum units I have purchased in the past. It was a lot of work, but I feel like the end product is great (fourth time's a charm, I guess). Preschool started last week and has been a lot of fun. I can't wait for all of the exciting things that are coming up during the year!

I was wondering why you weren't posting very much. Looks great. To your question, Carson and Mommy are enjoying the one-on-one time. I bet your kids love you.

WOW-WEE! I'm so impressed! You've always had a thing for fixing up and transforming(ie. piano)into newer and better so I'm not totally surprised, but I have to say- it looks fabulous!
I'm going to have to take some pictures of my room even though it won't compare.
