Today’s Curriculum Clean-Out giveaway, also linked up at Hip Homeschool Moms Giveaway Day, is for three of my favorite early childhood resource books, Scholastic’s Toss & Learn Game series:
Add a photocopier and photo blocks (trim cards to size and insert in blocks)
I’ve held on to the print copies of these, despite having digital copies, through two moves. It’s time now, however, to let them find a new home. The copies I’m offering here have my name on the front cover, but are otherwise in excellent used condition with only the lightest of shelf wear.
To enter this drawing, simply comment on this post, telling me about your favorite early childhood resource. It could be a book, a toy, a game — whatever your children have loved and learned from. You may earn extra entries by liking Preschool Years at Home on Facebook, subscribing to our FeedBurner feed, sharing this giveaway on your own blog, or tweeting about it. The contest ends at midnight August 9. Free media mail shipping is to U.S. addresses only.

I love the preschool board games! They learn alot of different things when they are playing the games, plus it’s fun!
We’re diehard board game lovers as well! What are your favorites? Busytown, the “Peg”gy Back Game, and Discovery Garden seem to get the most love here.
I don’t know that I have a favorite resource! I guess so far my favorite has been just free printable resources I find on great blogs. Thanks for the giveaway!
Which blogs are your favorite sources for printables? We’ve used quite a few from 1+1+1=1 .
We love games. All kinds board games, card games, and movement games.
We just finished several rounds of Zoologic, and ODD is playing Camelot Jr. as I type. I love to see her learn through play.
My children’s garden
I *wish* we had space for a garden. We filled some planters in front of our apartment this spring, but the triple digit summers here make it hard to keep plants alive.
Books, books, and more books! My kids love reading and them making up their own stories after!
My older daughter has been a book lover from infancy. YDD started walking at eight months and is just now beginning to slow down enough to listen to short board books before taking off again.
There are sooo many! I don’t know if we have a favorite. I love games, books, and open ended manipulatives. Also we live on a farm with lots of outdoor space where they can learn and explore!
As long as it’s hands on, craft or game related, I’m not picky because my daughter LOVES all of the above.
We love books here! Our kids can’t seem to get enough of them, and I feel like they are so important to give them a good educational start!
I love many, many things….but in a non-traditional answer we just got a school table off Craigs list & I LOVE it!
We have loved using Confessions of a Homeschooler’s Letter of the Week curriculum … it’s an excellent resource and tons of fun, too!
Books are first and foremost for us.
Alphie the talking robot.
So many things I love. But something I would never guessed my son would like is Quizmo fruit and vegetable game. Then a laminator and velcro are so wonderful in how they make learning so much more fun for my son.
I always loved my Alphie robot, so guess what my sonis getting for his birthday this year???
I love lapbooks. My daughter has been surprisingly receptive to them.
I like Leap Frog reading materials!
I can’t pick just one! Tempera paint was our very first favorite resource…
I love, love, love books, puzzles, and (I’ll admit it) educational video games.
My son loves puzzles and anything hands-on. He’s deaf and autistic, so we follow his lead.
I love Lauri games and puzzles, Leap Frog toys, BFIAR
Leap Frog
I love the preschool packs from 1+1+1=1 for my 3 year old.
I’d have to say the Internet and pinterest because I can find whatever I need
Honestly… blogs. 1+1+1 and Confessions of a homeschooler have perhaps been my fav, though I love lots of others!
The internet is my favorite resource
My daughter is super into puzzles these days! They’re helping her fine motor and problem solving skills.
We love lapbooks!
I think my favorite resource for preschool is the great outdoors and the library. We get into so many discussions on what we see on walks.
Books!! Just read, read, and read some more!
My favorite resource is the public library
pattern blocks! My son loves to build all kinds of creations with them.
Nature walks and manipulatives are my favorites!
different internet blogs…
I get lots of ideas from the blogs I read online. Plus google searches.
The library and books! I love to read to my children and they seem to like it as well.
Reading!
the library
Play dough!!! We love the sensory aspects as well as the multipurpose part! We can pretend play and make shapes, letters, numbers… the list just goes on and on!!
Free internet resources are great & we use them all the time (esp. from 1+1+1=1 & Confessions of a Homeschooler), but mostly just being outside with my kids. We live on a hobby farm with various animals & a good-size garden, so they get a lot of hands-on learning just helping me with chores.
Books, books and more books! We do so much reading and our 3.5 year old son loves it and constantly asks for us to read more books to him!
Books! We read like crazy. Picture books, story books, seek & find books. Even books full of worksheets. We love em all!
My favorite resource has been Raising Rock Stars from 1+1+1=1!! It has been awesome for both my kids
My favorite resource right now is the Letter of the Week curriculum that we’re just starting out using. It’s a lot of fun!
We love to read book after book!
