Welcome! New to ABC and 123?
Please check out our FAQ in the left sidebar.
We sure have enjoyed our first two months working here on ABC & 123: A Learning Cooperative! We love hunting down new ideas, learning from you, and reading your comments.
Thank you to all of you who have been following & encouraging us as we build this site.
We really appreciate your willingness to share your great ideas by submitting them for us to post. As we look ahead we recognize that we certainly won't be able to keep up the pace without your continued submissions.
You have probably noticed the left sidebar gives a month-by-month heads up on the themes we will be working toward in our activity gathering. The introductory paragraph in the center of the blog specifically identifies current submission requests (although you may send in anything and we will try to fit them in where appropriate).
We have also just added a Key Contributors list to the right side bar of our blog. This is where we will thank you for cooperating! If we've used your ideas & links 5 or more times you will have a permanent blog promo on our front page as our Thanks to You!
(On that note: if you have already been featured over 5 times and do not see your name in the box please bring that to our attention).
To continue to thank you for your submissions & encourage you to continue to share your clever activities we are offering you a gift. Anyone who submits an activity in the next week will be entered into a drawing to receive a copy of the book The Healthiest Kid in the Neighborhood, by Dr. William Sears. After you've sent your submission please leave a comment on this post letting us know what feature you think your submission might fit nicely with. We will choose 2 winners next Thursday, May 21st!
Looking ahead, we are working with several unique vendors who are excited to share their educational resources and products with you. Throughout the summer months we will be featuring many fantastic giveaways. We look forward to having you be part of it all!

Hi I just sent two posts that would work well for your Thematic Thursday feature. One was a farm activity and the other was a kite project. My daughter really enjoyed both of them.

I have enjoyed this site too! I love how many of the things work for our homeschool situation! I am going to be adding more preschool activities to our day in the fall for my three year old and an 18 month little girl that I keep several days a week.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you're interested, but I'm doing a beach unit this week and next.
