Naptime! I usually take this time for myself. It’s almost nap time so I let him have some fun. My son gets to do pretty much whatever he would like for this time. Lunchtime! Take a break, you earned it! 12:00 PM: Outdoor Time/Free PlayĪfter lunch, I like to do some outdoor time or free play. You can also find great motor skills activity ideas on Pinterest. This usually involves playing with certain toys such as wooden blocks, legos, etc. I also picked up some great cards from Dollar Tree that teach numbers to preschoolers. We use a number of workbooks and printables. 10:30 AM: Numbers WorkĪfter snack time, we usually go straight into some sort of number work. Snack break! Who doesn’t love a snack?! We always do a snack break in the middle of the morning to hold us over until we get to lunch later on in the day. You can also find many free printables online as well if you have a printer handy at home. These are great for preschoolers to see the pictures and have space to practice writing. I have purchased many different alphabet workbooks for preschoolers that help me and my son stay focused on the topic at hand. I would suggest using Pinterest to look up great sensory activities for toddlers. We use these for sensory skills as well as others. 9:00 AM: Scheduled Sensory ActivityĪfter free play, I try to find a sensory activity such as play-doh, sensory boxes, sensory bags, etc. I will usually jump in and play with him depending on what he is doing at the time. I will let him play with those while I quickly clean up breakfast, clean the kitchen, pick up the rest of the house from the night before, and finish getting myself ready (quick makeup, throw hair up, etc.) Liam usually has certain toys that he wants to play with or is excited about. I use the time right after breakfast as free play. I make breakfast for us and we eat together. We get up (normally) anywhere between 7-8 am most mornings. I like to use the mornings to take it slow and be mindful of what our day is going to look like. We used to rush getting ready for daycare and work and running around like crazy to ensure we both made it to where we needed to be on time. We use the early morning hours to slowly get ready and prepared for our day. Daily Preschool Schedule 7:30 AM: Wake up, Eat breakfast, Brush Teeth, Get dressed for the day This is for anyone looking for more information. I couldn’t find a lot of information while I was looking and contemplating. It can definitely be done and you do not need any teaching experience! Many parents think they “can’t” homeschool or preschool (I was one of them!) but this schedule is super easy to follow andy you can always make your own adjustments as needed. It can be a hard decision and maybe seeing someone else’s schedule might help. I decided to share this post to help other moms who are thinking of homeschooling or preschooling their toddlers. It took me a while to get into a nice groove and learn what works best for both of us.
