The Things I love About Preschool..........

Hello Guys!!!  Listed below are a combination of things that I truly admire that involves the Early Childhood field.  I have found the items listed below either very beneficial in the preschool classroom, or just awesome for the mindset of a brand new preschool teacher.  My hope is that the information shared helps someone, in someway, as they go through the journey of helping a young child learn, grow, and be the best version of 'them' that they can be!!!


Favorite Book: This book is so awesome because it's short, sweet, and straight to the point.                                          The illustrations are great and really catches the eye of young viewers. It even
                          teaches character education, which is an important component to growing up.  

Favorite Quote: This quote is very important to me because as we are learning new things about
                           ECE, it seems the most important thing, PLAY, is being shifted OUT of the
                           preschool field.  I feel that play is one of the major ways that preschoolers
                           learn.  I also feel that it should be labeled as a necessity in all preschool
                           programs.

Favorite Child-Made Picture: The following picture was one that was found online.  It may be a
                                                 simple picture to some viewers, but to me it represents a child's
                                                 TRUE WORK!!  So many times in the preschool classroom there
                                                 is art work posted that's shows evidence that it was teacher-directed
                                                 instead of child-directed.  This picture shows that even though there
                                                 may have been needed adult-direction, the child's creativity was still
                                                 able to shine through.
