The level of boredom and the degree of hyperactivity in toddlers are directly proportional to each other. The greater the boredom, the more hyperactive toddlers become. I have two toddlers in my care and hyperactivity is definitely something I dread! It has happened a couple of times, and believe me, running after them trying to figure out which one is in danger of getting hurt or hurting the other is a pretty nasty sight.
Good thing moms like me are able to get great help from the web. There are now plenty of sites that we can go to for ideas on how to keep our toddlers entertained while learning at the same time. Here are four of this mom’s favorite go-to sites:
PreKinders, a site with resources for Pre-K Teachers, has plenty of activity ideas that can be used not just in the classroom but at home also. There are also free printables available.
Starfall is the toddlers’ most recent favorite site. The toddlers are still on the first level which is ABC Getting Started to Read. They have both showed great progress in letter recognition and phonemic awareness since we started using the site a month ago.
Fisher-Price Online Games and Activities has dozens of games and activities for infants, toddlers and preschoolers. My toddlers’ favorites include Shapes + Colors, Who’s at the Door?, and Learning about Opposites.
For printables, I go to Wholesome Toddler Food. Aside from providing nutrition facts and recipes, this site also has links to hordes of great printables for introducing letters, numbers, colors, and shapes to toddlers.
