- A seasonal round-up (toward the beginning of the month)
- A guest post featuring crafts, activities, tips, snack ideas or other early childhood topics. (toward the end of the month)
- Posts where I share what I have been up to with my preschoolers and/or early elementary children (including occasional highlight posts where I share how we used ideas that have been linked up here on Littles Learning Link Up).
Each week, I will host a link up, where you can share either what you have been up to recently, or old posts that may go with the theme. Feel free to link up more than one post.
Each week I will continue to feature a couple of posts from those that have been linked up.
I hope you will continue to share your wonderful posts, and I hope you will find something new to try with your child.
It would be great for everyone to stop by and visit the other linked-up posts as well. Check them out, leave some comments, pin those that interest you. Let's make this a real party and socialize with each other.
It's time for this month's Round Up
It is hard to believe it is May again already. And, I am sure you have all heard the saying, "April showers bring May flowers." I know around here, that sure is true. We are finally seeing flowers popping up and brightening up the outside world. What better month to have a round up filled with flower crafts and activities! So, I invite you to relax and peruse this post and perhaps you will find some new ideas you would like to try with your children.
