Arrazzles: Imagine-Build-Connect-Play From Funnybone Toys

As a pre-school teacher of eight years I found that the best toys for scaffolding creativity and cognitive
skills are open-ended. Unlike a board game or even a puzzle, an open-ended toy has no set way for
a child to play with it. Instead it gives children the ability to think outside-the-box. Open-ended toys
enable children to feel free to do what comes naturally – be creative. {Product provided for review/feature consideration}

Back to School: What You Need To Know When Choosing A Daycare (Part One: Ratios)

 

My little one and I :)

Que paso! My name is Denise and I'm new to the blogging world, but not to kids. I taught preschool for over eight years and I'm currently a grad student, majoring in education. And I'm a parent. In fact, I decided to write this post as I nurse my 6 month-old. Surprisingly, typing while nursing is a task that I have not quite mastered as a SAHM and grad student. 

I have been meaning to write about this subject ever since I moved from Charlotte, North Carolina to Buford, Georgia. When I earned my graduate certificate in Education from UNCC, I thought that finding a job in the school system would be a piece of cake. It wasn’t. I ended up doing what I had been doing for the last eight years, teaching preschool. As a new mom I spent time looking for daycares, my experience in the education field gave me a unique view on how to go about this very important task. I wanted to share with you a simple list of questions that may help you in this endeavor.
