    anyone got any ideas for a home schooling regime? ive a 4 yr old preschooler and dont want it all to be play time. goal is to get him to start reading and adding up i suppose.

    • Play IS learning at that age.Morning_star
    • Play!Gnash
    • Look up some Montessori activities, but it's healthy to be playing all the time at this age. Good luck, it's tiring.ben_
    • The Bob books series are great for this age. If they can sound out simple letters and words then it's a perfect onramp to reading.mathinc
    • Morning_star is right, focus on good play is critical. For reading, simply read to them A LOT. During each meal, during breaks, at nap and bed time. Always.monospaced
    • My son isn't even 4 yet and the library is like disneyland for him. Books are like candy when bargaining. He's the most advanced in his class for language now.monospaced
