    Easy Toddler Learning Activities

    Easy Toddler Learning Activities

    Whether you are on the fence of sending your toddler to preschool or joining the rising homeschooling community, or you are simply searching for fun and educational activities to do at home, we have collected several to choose from.

    Research is showing how excessive and early screen time for children is causing life-altering issues from obesity to learning disabilities and delayed motor skills. 

    Keeping the screens to a minimum can be hard in our current culture, but doing so may provide wonderful benefits to your child! Not only will the family bond be stronger, but boredom breeds creativity, and you will have the ability to learn more about what sparks joy in your baby. 

    Taking notes from those who are educating at home, the folowing ideas are lumped into several categories and weekly themes. They should keep your kids interested, promote educational conversation, involve the whole family, and keep everyone happy!
