First show/Preschool idea for next show



"Hellloooooo out there...Oh, I hope nobody answers." (That was my first thought when I started the very first radio read aloud show.) In case you don't remember, that line was said by Winnie the Pooh when he opened his door to the outside and Tigger then pounced on him and said "HELLO, I'm Tigger!" Anyway, if you can imagine Pooh's voice...that's how I was sounding! HA!

There were some serious fumbles yesterday, but I think I've ironed out the kinks. I listened to a little tutorial today at Blogtalkradio, so I should know what I'm doing tomorrow!

If you click on one of the two links on my sidebar, you can connect to my show (it will automatically play an archived show, which is the ONLY one I have until tomorrow). And if you can't listen in at 4pm CST tomorrow, you can always listen later to the archived show. The more listeners I have, the more chances I have at getting a "prime time" slot. You can also subscribe to my show and have it automatically sent to you. If you make a link to my show (or this blog) on YOUR blog or website (directing them to the read aloud show), then it will also help generate traffic! Anyway, pass the info along to other moms of preschoolers, elem. age kids and any other kiddo that would like to be read to! I actually like this time slot, b/c it seems to work for several folks in different time zones. (For example, I have a friend out west and she can set her little one down to listen to the show when she wakes from her nap. And if your littles are anything like mine, they start to get a little cranky around 4-5 as they are waiting for dinner.) SO, here's your solution!

One more thought: I'll be reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle on Thursday (4/10) and I KNOW there are several resources online to go along with this book if you wanted to make a lapbook or do a unit. Here's one site for preschool ideas:

(I will try to link to some more tonight). THEN, you can listen to my reading of the book anytime you want your child to hear it for a week, 2 weeks, however long you want to work with this book!

Enjoy! I am so thrilled to be able to share my storytelling with you!

WELCOME

Hello! I am thrilled you are here! . I hope this will be a blessing and valued resource to you, your family, and friends.

I've started a list of products with "tried and true" large family recommendations. Everything listed will not work for every family, but hey, if I can save someone else the time of searching the web for all these resources, then it would be worth it.

For homeschooling families, I will post links to sites for all types of subjects, resources, and curriculum. Once again, most of these links will be particular favorites that have been successful for our family, or for other homeschool families. Remember, “tried and true” will be our mantra!

Remember that I constantly update links, add links and categories ALL THE TIME. Also, if you don't see a favorite link that you LOVE, post it here in a link and I will get it uploaded.
