Paper, crayons, fingerpaints, and lots of picture/abc and Dr. Seuss books!

I think for most kids books, storytime at the library, nature walks, etc are really good tools and curriculum isn't really necessary.  But some kids really like to sit down and do work; especially if big brother/sister is doing work.  Brighter Vision has some good materials (they are a bit pricey, though).link

 

 

Slow and Steady Get Me Ready by June Oberlander also has some good ideas in it.

Hi,

I found the name of the Best resource book I have ever used. It is by Teacher Creeated Materials and it is called

Teaching Basic Skills Through Literature Phonics Primary.

It can be used with young preschool children up to 4th grade. I  loved all the hands on activities. And used it often.
