We are going to start our homeschool year on August 6. That gives me two more weeks to finalize our plans for the year and curriculum. The good news is I’ve been working hard on it and it’s almost there, but as I was visualizing what our days were going to look like I couldn’t help fretting a little about how the heck I’d create the one on one time necessary to do math and language arts with Hailey without Kaitlyn interfering and wanting to be included. As I combed through the details of our day I decided I will need two 20-30 minute chunks of time one on one with my six year old, which means I need two 20-30 minute activities for my four year old that would actually hold her attention. In my distress, I reached out to my Instagram-Fam (you can follow me here!<\/a>) and soon messages were pouring in from teachers and moms with incredible ideas for self-directed activities for spirited four year olds.<\/p>\n

I had almost as equally many messages asking for me to share those ideas, so I committed to recording them all in this post for us all to easily access!<\/p>\n

Some quick note about the listed activities:<\/p>\n
