About Me

Hi, I am a mum and a teacher and during this strange and uncertain times, I will be home with a 7, 4 and 2 year old. I teach 2 days a week at a Catholic Primary School. I thought i would start a blog to share some activities I will do with my kids as well as some advice wearing my teacher hat. Will I be going crazy at home with my children? Yes, but this is also a chance to bond with them and reassure them that they are loved and we will all be ok! As a teacher, normally when there is something big going on in the world, we are with our students, helping and guiding them as well as offering routine and stability. I think the fact that we aren't with our students during this time is the reason so many teachers are offering assistance and help to anyone they can. Please feel free to use anything on this Blog. i am by no means an expert or guru and a lot of the ideas and activities are not mine but have been shared with me by excellent, hard working teachers or fantastic, loving and real mothers.

 Catering For The Little One


Someone pointed out to me that you need heaps of activities with little ones as each activity only lasts 5 minutes max! Which is a shame when they take 10 minutes to set up and 30 minutes to clean up!


 I attached paper clips to picture cards for Miss A to fish for and match with the letter of the alphabet that the picture starts with. My little man enjoyed fishing for the cards too. They actually worked very well for vocabulary development. 

We stuck stickers on paper and stamped paint with potato stamps. The stickers were great for mine motor development as pealing the backing of the sticker took a while. It was a great activity as it wasn't messy at all.

Unlike the potato stamping! Messy but fun!
