As a former educator, I love a good lesson plan. I also know that my baby girl loves / needs structure. And so began my quest to create super easy, themed weekly lesson plans for my toddler.
My main goals when creating these lessons were:
Have themes
Be cheap
Be easy to complete, set up and clean up
Be shareable
Have fun!
So I set out to identify weekly themes, find crafts and activities that could align with those themes, and put it all together with limited access to objects outside of our home. What I came up with are 3 mini-lessons that are perfect for kiddos 18 months - 3 years old. Each week incorporates a story (I had to find a lot of them as read alouds on YouTube since the library is closed), a craft, and a movement activity of some sort.
Below you'll find a link to the pdf for the lesson plans and each link has hyperlinks to the lesson, activity, or printable. The second page of each lesson also has a list of materials that you'll need to make shopping easier (some are affiliate links). I also recommend checking out my post on how to survive homeschooling a toddler, to make the experience enjoyable for all parties involved 🙃 Stay tuned for weeks 4-6!
