This blog is trying to put the fun into fundamentals that we have to teach in preschool. I have been told so many times that children learn best through play and having fun. I think we all do. With that in mind, my goal is to help teachers, help their students have fun, and still meet the credentials that their employers want. I have some basic themes that I think most teachers would know of, however I am hoping to throw some curve balls into there to, to give you some fresh perspectives on some old themes, but also to throw in a few new ideas that I either found or created on my own. Pinterest is wonderful! With that in mind let’s KICKSTART this new school year with some FUNdamentals.

NOTE: Just because these are labeled Preschool themes, all of these themes I have been able to use in a Summer Camp for ages 3 to 12, and have adapted for my youngest when I was homeschooling her for a short while. This blog is geared to help create educational and fun themes for just about any one, even teachers sometimes.
