This week Kathy shares how to turn your home into a pop-up preschool over a weekend. Kathy encourages parents to use items from home instead of running out and buying store bought “educational” items. Kathy suggests focusing on developing the whole child by offering a variety of invitations to play throughout the day. 

The following are the areas of development that should be included in your pop-up preschool:

• Books
• Sensory Experiences 
• Language Arts / Writing Area
• Math / Manipulatives / Fine Motor
• Science Basket 
• Outdoor / Gross Motor
• Art
• Self-Help
