These are just ideas i know my little guy would be able to handle. What are some ideas you may have for activities about diversity and inclusiveness? Please feel free to comment them not only for my curiosity, but for even more ideas for you my readers as well.
Hi, Teresa! I finally got on my laptop to see your blog! Excellent! :) I hope you'll visit mine too...Keep finding a way to share yours..many will appreciate it. I would hunt for Catholic homeschool moms when I had mine years ago and that is where I met some of the best friends of my life and still are! Alexa, Rosemary...yep and more that we do not keep up as much so you would not know them by name, but suffice it to say, it was fun and kinda miraculous that I was also blessed to meet them and see them several times and they lived so far away. So enjoy and keep up the great efforts. My grandson is one blessed little fella! :)
ReplyDeleteAwww thanks, Momma. At first I was not planning on using this for anything other than a place to keep my lesson plans for future reference. I guess I realized I could use it to help share things I have learned in early childhood education. Not sure how much thought people put into what learning goes into play for the little ones, plus i really do like hearing ideas I may not have heard about too. I put your blog on ny reading list. 😁
