I am a new provider and am trying to figure out how I am going to educate my kiddos and do everything else. I was just wondering if you all have scheduled time that you work on things or do you do it thru out the day as time permits. Do you do it in a group or is it more individual? I have a new baby up to a 3 yr old. Thanks for your feedback.

We include all ages when we do our curriculum. I use Mother Goose Time. I order for kids over 2 and for the younger, implement other activities. Even little ones sit with us, it all sinks in!
Often it is easier if we do it while the babies are napping, if possible, but I ahve done it this way for years. Once you get in to a routine, it's like everything, things just fall in to place!
Good luck! -
I'm working on creating a curriculum too! It is so hard to meet the needs of everyone.
My ages 5mos-4yr, I use preschool prep dvd's...www.preschoolprep.com(buy from amazon).
We have a focus lesson for each day i.e Mon-colors Tues-ABC Wed-Numbers Thurs-Shapes Fri-crafts...you'll see what I mean when you look at the dvd's
Note:My 19mo knows the following sight words "I, you, to, the, in, it" and counts 0-10 and loves to sing his abc and point out his colors "orange, black, purple, green" we have only been watching the dvd's for a little over four weeks about 15min each time.
We have a weekly focus broad which list the "letter/color/number/shape and Bible verse of the week. We go over this daily "after calendar time" I print off worksheets/daily crafts based on the focus lesson of the day i.e. Color/numbers etc. I've been using the following websites for all my worksheets and theme units...its all FREE!!! Both site offer tons on great information...check them out!
