Have you ever thought about opening your own preschool. You will do well.
Congratulations on your bouncing baby boy.
Anna Geiger says
January 8, 2016 at 6:43 amHi, Janelle! No, I haven’t thought about opening my own preschool… I kind of already have one, but I just have one or two students at a time. 🙂 I like my free schedule, and I always have a toddler and/or baby, so I don’t know how I would manage an in home preschool. Maybe some day when my kids are bigger I can host a Mother’s Day Out or something… but for now I like to use every spare moment to blog!

March 24, 2016 at 2:58 pmhow old are you kids? how do you find time to blog? do you use a virtual assistant?
Anna Geiger says
March 28, 2016 at 5:34 pmHi Normel,
My kids are 3 months, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8. I actually wrote a post about how I find time to blog: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/how-i-find-time-to-blog/
My sister is my VA, but she only works 5 hours a week for me.

February 28, 2016 at 8:49 pmI’m impressed by your site. It’s so comprehensive! I am homeschooling my second child (3-year-old) since we don’t have money to send him to a preschool right now. I’m a high school teacher by profession, so this is a new world to me. Thanks for sharing!
Anna Geiger says
March 1, 2016 at 9:30 pmHi Mary! I’m so glad you found my site – I hope you find many things here you can use! I’ve enjoyed “homeschooling” my kids for preschool. They’re such eager little learners!

Sarah says
September 22, 2016 at 12:03 amDo you have a recommendation for how long each pack should take to teach? And how much time to spend each day on the activities? I home school preschool my three boys all under age 4 and I have trouble getting them to sit still and listen or do an activity for longer than 15 minutes at a stretch. Everything I do is hands – on and most of it involves manipulatives but it always seems they would rather play 🙁
Anna Geiger says
September 22, 2016 at 11:31 amGreat question, Sarah! First I should say that each pack contains WAY more activities than any one teacher or parent would have time to do. The bundles are typically 200-300 pages of activities so that you can choose the ones that are best for your learner. You can easily do some one year and then others the following year. So instead of saying how long the bundle takes, I can say how much time I recommend you spend. If you’re homeschooling for preschool, it varies by the child’s age and development. Since your boys are under 4, 15 minutes is actually just about right. I know that can feel frustrating, but it’s quite normal. You could try two sessions per day so that you get a total of 30 minutes. And sometimes you may find that one or more of your boys is game for more activities. I suggest overplanning for each day with 3-4 activities, and bump the ones you don’t get to to the following day.
You can also read books recommended in the pack for part of the day and then do activities for another part. I would say that 3-4 weeks on a theme is a good amount of time to spend, but you can certainly go longer if your boys are still interested.
I hope this helps!

January 27, 2017 at 12:20 amDear Anna,
I have recently found your website whilst preparing activities for my KG classroom. I am so impressed by the amount of resources you have and the quality. Excellent fun for small hands!
Also, hats off to you with your growing family, I have 5 children 10, 7, 5 and 2 month twins! and it is a struggle to sit down for 5 minutes sometimes! Thanks so much for all of your efforts
Anna Geiger says
January 27, 2017 at 10:10 pmHi Debbie! Wow – 2 month old twins! I hope they are sleeping at least a little for you. I can imagine you feel like you’re a in a fog a lot of the time! Thankfully your oldest children are big enough to help out. I’m sure they love having two sweet babies! You’re definitely a busy mom and teacher – I hope you find some resources here to save you some time and energy!

February 26, 2017 at 5:37 amhi Anna, my name is Millie all the way from Nigeria. your resources have indeed been a lifesaver…i run a creche / preschool called Bumblebeez Early Care and downloading and printing your cards have really helped me…thank you….especially the free printables, you’re doing such a great job. thank you for being an inspiration. God bless you.
Anna Geiger says
February 27, 2017 at 9:36 amThank you for introducing yourself, Millie, and I’m so glad you’re finding resources here to help your students!
Joey says
March 4, 2017 at 10:23 amHello, Anna
I’ll try not to copy everyone else’s posts but my students have benefited tremendously from the support you’re able to provide teachers through materials and suggested activities. Until now I’ve only used the free materials but I’d like to purchase more.
I have poked around the sight and can’t seem to find anything like a bundle. Are there any? I love the emergent readers from all categories and would like most/all of them but I think I would also like to buy all of the themes and make a yearly plan for my students using the materials.
Do you have any suggestion for using the site’s materials? Or, would I be individually purchasing each file?
Thank you for your time!

Connie Simpson says
November 26, 2017 at 10:28 pmHi Anna,
I have a set of bears from you that have rhyming words on them. They could be word families. They are sleeping and I’m trying to find what they go with on my computer. I have so many theme packs that I have purchased from you and I’ve tried to go through them and find these bears (they are already printed out and laminated). I think there were word family “caves” that went with them but I can’t find them at this time. Would you be able to tell me what the name of the set is or the name of the product it came in so I can find it? I would really appreciate it.
Thank you,
Connie
Anna G says
November 27, 2017 at 4:31 amThose are part of the Winter theme pack.

Mari says
February 21, 2018 at 7:46 pmThank you so much for doing all this. My daughter is 4 and recently diagnosed with ASD with speech delays and I’m trying to supplement pre-school with a bit of homeschooling on top of theraphy and other things. Your site has been such a blessing since I can find a lot of tools to use in one place. It’s made the search less overwhelming. We are trying to learn sight words and your books are exactly what I need to reinforce what she learns in the app she uses. Plus printing, laminating and cutting is therapeutic for me as well since it gives me sonething to do other than worry. So thank you for being such a blessing.
Anna G says
February 21, 2018 at 9:01 pmYour comment was so a day brightener, Mari – thank you for letting me know how my resources are working for your sweet daughter! All the best to you! ❤️

I’m hoping you could help me. Thanking God for all His great work in you.
