I’ve done something right as a parent. All 3 of my kids are incredibly smart and great students. Shae though, takes it to a whole new level. She has something different, something special about her that is gonna take her far. She’s always loved reading, drawing, writing, researching, talking and challenging herself. In this house technology is often king. Between the 5 of us we have a desktop, multiple laptops, smartphones and tablets and iPods. Each housing some kind of game or educational software for someone.
ABCMouse.com is one of those “games” that got the most use for us. From reading to art to music to printables to math, ABCMouse.com is comprehensive educational resource for preschoolers to kindergartners. The curriculum is so the basic fundamentals of reading, writing and math are accompanied by the arts, music, science and more in over 5,000 different activities.
Math
ABCmouse.com teaches numbers, shapes, patterns, and measurements. The site’s games and creative activities make math fun while giving young learners the practice they need to build a strong foundation for success.
Learning Through Puzzles
ABCmouse.com’s curriculum includes hundreds of jigsaw and cutout puzzles that help children learn and remember important ideas and skills in reading, math, science, art, social studies, and music. There are puzzles for every letter of the alphabet, sight words, stories, the numbers 1 through 20, shapes, zoo and farm animals, and many, many other topics.
Reading
ABCmouse.com’s reading curriculum helps children to quickly learn the letters of the alphabet and their sounds, as well as learn to instantly recognize the sight words that are most important for beginning readers. Your child will learn to love to read with our hundreds of fables, fairy tales, nonfiction books, and more.
Music & Songs
ABCmouse.com’s Music and Songs curriculum is designed to teach children to appreciate and enjoy music. The wide variety of songs on the site allows your child to experience the building blocks of music (melody, harmony, rhythm, and lyrics) as well as several different styles of music.
As your child starts and develops skills and knowledge the progress trackers gives you updates on activities completed by academic level. The content is updated so the activities and lessons stay fresh for the children.
Rewards are a great motivator. This is why ABCMouse.com implements a Ticket system to encourage more achievements with the learning activities. These tickets are used to virtually purchase accessories for the child’s avatar or a pet fish for the classroom. Of course there is a lesson behind the ticket system; it brings a little math fun as they keep track of the “spending”.
Shae is entering 2nd grade now so is too old for ABCMouse.com but it help tremendously in her earlier school years. Those were the formative years and she grabbed every piece of information and knowledge she could and is running fast with it. I thank ABCMouse.com for keeping it fun and entertaining without skimping on the quality education.
