I love this new site
ABCmouse.com! It is very educational and my children LOVE it! They love that they can create their own rooms and decorate them to their liking. It is free for you to use, but costs $79.00 to get into the whole room decoration and all the "behind the scenes" great stuff! I let my children use it before we had a subscription and you can do a lot of the stuff for free, but my daughter was itching to decorate her own room and have her own fish tank! When given the opportunity to have a trial subscription for review I was so excited because the opportunities on this site are pretty outstanding! There are tons of learning features...it's a whole curriculum for preschool through kindergarten at your children's fingertips! It has a teacher and a classroom for your children to feel as if they are really in school. They have tons of learning songs and puzzles. I loved that my four year old didn't get frustrated and played for an hour straight without frustration! My five year old daughter just loved being able to make her own room with the "tickets" she earned. I cannot recommend it enough to all of you busy moms that just don't have the time to sit and go through any more flashcards or workbooks :)! Check it out and you decide what you think...It's even great for the free features if you don't want to pay for it. Do I think it's worth the $79 for the year? I would say yes because, for me, I don't send my kids to preschool, so it's a great way to ensure that they are up on all of their skills that I might have looked over and not been reinforcing.
Founded by Age of Learning, Inc.,
ABCmouse.com is a revolutionary new website for children. ABCmouse.com provides parents and teachers with a safe, engaging online environment where young children can learn their ABC’s using a computer mouse, thus the name ABCmouse.com. Instead of putting children in front of a television set it is important to provide them with the tools that will help them in school (and to allow them to be engaged and have fun while doing so).
The goal of
ABCmouse.com is to help children build a strong foundation for future academic success by providing engaging educational content that supplements and supports preschool, pre-k, and kindergarten programs in the subject areas of reading, mathematics, social studies, beginning science, art, and music. The site’s comprehensive curriculum, developed in collaboration with nationally recognized early childhood education experts, offers a depth and breadth of educational content for early learners never before seen in one location on the web. From ABC’s and 123’s to Thank You and Please, ABCmouse.com is “Bringing Learning to Life” by offering more than 2,000 individual learning activities—online books, games, songs, puzzles, art activities, and printables—contained within more than 350 custom lesson plans spanning six academic levels.
Here is one other tidbit that I LOVE about this site...**The site is being offered FREE to all public schools throughout the U.S. and Canada that apply for the program. Considering that I was a first grade teacher for years before having my children, I was so excited to see this. If you would be interested in learning more about that opportunity for your child's school, let us know! We'd be happy to assist you in that process.
