Best Freebie Ever!
I know I’ve shared this resource on here before, but I found myself using it again today and thought I’d better tell you about it again. So here it is, my all-time favorite resource for preschool printables: Pre-K Packs from Over the Big Moon I discovered Over the Big Moon the first year that I taught preschool and since then I have used every single one of their Pre-K Packs in one way or another. They are perfect for activity centers, holiday parties, take home activities, and even gifts for preschoolers. There are 26 different themes, giving you plenty of options, some of the themes are seasonal, some are character…

What’s in my desk
When I got the job that I have right now and realized that I would have a desk for the first time in my working life I was excited to fill it up with stuff! I read tons of blog posts about great things to keep in your desk, some of which were helpful, and some of which were a little weird. Since I’ve been using many of these items regularly for the last year I thought I would share what I’ve love having at my fingertips. One of the first things that I did was to find an organizer that would fit really well in my desk drawer. I…

Back to School Wish List
Image from Glitter Meets Glue It’s that time again – time for the massive Back to School Sale on Teachers Pay Teachers!!!! As is my tradition, I’m sharing what’s on my wishlist to help you add to your wishlist. Here’s what will be going in my cart: The dramatic play sets from Play to Learn Preschool are my favorite, and this Library set is adorable, and perfect for getting children excited about reading!

Make your summer goals… and keep them!
This time of year is all about finishing up all of those end of the year projects, and I’m not sure if it’s the weather or just knowing that other projects are winding down, but it seems to be the time that I started dreaming big dreams of everything that I’m going to accomplish over the summer. Those dreams are usually lofty, and then all of a sudden it’s September and nothing got done. So this year I’m going to do what I do best, make a list. I’m planning on writing down all of my goals, so that I can really determine which ones are realist and which ones…

Preschool activities for Christmas
