5 Days of Teaching Toddlers Introduction

When I started this blog almost 4 years ago I was teaching only toddlers, thus the name Tots and Me. I had worked at a Montessori Children's House for 5 years and at another day care for over a year prior to having Tabitha. I worked primarily in the toddler room at the Montessori and as the teacher in the 2 yr old group at the other day care.  I wanted to use the knowledge I had gained to teach the girls. Tabitha was 2 and Amelia was 1 at the time. They are both now school-age, but I still have a preschooler and a toddler in the house, so what better subject to talk about.

I would like to take this week and share some of my favorite activities for teaching toddlers plus some ideas on how to include toddlers while teaching older children. Here is what is planned:

Monday: Teaching Toddlers Number Recognition and Math Readiness

Tuesday: Teaching Toddlers Reading Readiness

Wednesday: Teaching Toddlers with Montessori Activities

Thursday: Teaching Toddlers while teaching older children
