Education is so important to me. I believe that in order to help our children be self-sufficient, they need a solid foundation which in my opinion is education. I have been home schooling SweetPea for a few months now. I looked into a two year old preschool for her, but with money being tight, I didn't feel that was a viable option. I was recently asked to try an Early Learning Academy app with my daughter. I feel it is more budget friendly option for the parent who wants to help further their child's education.
SweetPea has been exploring the lessons for a few weeks now. She loves the songs and has already earned over 190 tickets which is a way they show progress and your child can earn virtual prizes as well. I am excited with how she is learning with this program. And I hope to continue working with her through the benefits of ABCmouse.

I learned they have so many different things for a toddler! I'd never heard of them before
ReplyDeleteI love that my pre-k son would love all the interactions available--he loves to try new apps :) and I love the educational ones
ReplyDeleteI learned that with a abc mouse kids are reading at a young age, tons of new interactions, it's fun, and us absolutely toddler friendly! we will be investing in abc mouse soon!
ReplyDeleteI like the progressive activities, my daughter is the perfect age for this site!
ReplyDeleteI just love that its something I can start with him now (he will be 2 in two months) to give him a headstart for school or homeschooling if thats what we decide to do. I love that there are printables to go along with it! And songs which he adores!
ReplyDeleteI love it, but it really sucks that they don't have many apps for iPad or ability to run the program on it.
ReplyDeleteI'm confused by your comment. My daughter in the above pictures is using an iPad to use ABCmouse.com's mobile app for iPads. :)
DeleteI like that my 5 year old will "learn to instantly recognize the sight words that are most important for beginning readers." He is just starting to read and this would help him.
ReplyDeleteI have an subscription to ABC mouse, but trying to get Dino to use the mouse to use it on his own...I know that we can change the activities on each level, I have to play around with that a bit more.
ReplyDeleteI have been considering getting a subscription to abcmouse so winning this would be great! I love that there are 450 lessons so there's no chance my daughter would get bored. She would have a ton of fun activities!

I love all the educational interactive fun it has for toddlers. My son is about to turn 3 and is obsessed with numbers and letters, this would be a wonderful help with early reading!

ABC mouse sounds like such a great program!! I am always looking for educational teaching apps I can use with my son!! We will have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteI won a year of ABC mouse a couple of years ago and a few of the lessons my granddaughter took (who was born a month prematurely) did help her with understanding her real school lessons! ABCMouse had more patience than we did! Great product!!
ReplyDeleteI've heard a lot of praise for ABC Mouse. It sounds like it really draws in kids, getting them interested in learning.
