FAQs
What supplies do I need?
We keep things crazy simple here. All you need is:
1. A preschool educational mat you can grab off Amazon (sold separately - link here or here). We use the 3'5' size that is around $35 (or the 5'6' one works great too!). This is your main "school supply" for the program used in both the parent-child curriculum and videos to skyrocket your child's learning. The mat will allow your child to physically and playfully interact with letters, numbers, shapes, and colors with academic "thinking" games.
2. Basic school supplies (paper, markers, crayons, scissors, glue, paint, play dough, etc.) You probably have most of this already. We'll send links to recommended ones after checkout, but most of this you can grab at your local dollar store if you need anything.
3. Simple things from around the house: stuffed animals, clothing, paper plates, cups, wooden spoons, etc. Our program always lists activities with preferred items as well as alternatives so you'll never be without.
That's it! Easy Peasy! We provide you with a one-page supply checklist you'll be able to download in the program. You really don't need much to get started though!
What is the difference between the two programs available?
The 3-Month program contains the first 13 weeks of preschool, and the school-year program contains ALL 38 weeks of preschool content.
Each "week" of preschool consists of three lesson plans, which you can do on any days of the week you choose.
Each lesson plan also includes an integrated 30-minute class video and a number of hands-on play activities to choose from to help enrich and extend the lesson.
The 3-Month program contains the following themes:
Week 1: Super Me
Week 2: Pets
Week 3: Homes
Week 4: Feelings
Week 5: Weather
Week 6: Jungle
Week 7: Circus
Week 8: Wild West
Week 9: Family
Week 10: Ocean
Week 11: Clothing
Week 12: Space
Week 13: Bears
The School-Year program contains everything in the 3-Month program, plus the following themes:
Week 14: Baking
Week 15: Transportation
Week 16: Teeth
Week 17: Colors
Week 18: Dinosaurs
Week 19: Ice & Penguins
Week 20: Plants
Week 21: Pirates
Week 22: Seasons
Week 23: Being Healthy
Week 24: Construction
Week 25: Insects
Week 26: Royals
Week 27: Farms
Week 28: Fire Safety
Week 29: Nursery Rhymes
Week 30: Five Senses
Week 31: Sports
Week 32: Beach
Week 33: Halloween (Holiday Bonus!)
Week 34: Thanksgiving (Holiday Bonus!)
Week 35: Christmas (Holiday Bonus!)
Week 36: Valentines (Holiday Bonus!)
Week 37: Easter (Holiday Bonus!)
Week 38: Graduation (Bonus!)
If I buy the 3-Month program now, can I upgrade to the Full School-Year program later?
Yes, you can. But be aware that, if bought later, the School-Year upgrade (for weeks 14+) is priced at $158 all on its own. Buying the Full School-Year package (weeks 1-38) right now for $158 is our best deal because you are essentially getting the entire 3-Month program for free!
The 3-Month program is here for you if you are on a tighter budget, but we highly recommend the School-Year program for most families. This program gives you access to all the content you could want for preschooling your child effectively in the months and years to come!
What skills will my child work on?
Your child will work on all the components of a top-notch, early childhood education. Specifically:
Literacy skills: phonemic awareness, letters identification, letter sounds, rhyming, concepts of print, vocabulary, prewriting, story comprehension, and more.
Numeracy skills: counting, patterning, logic, early math skills
Large motor skills: big body movements, coordination, balance, agility
Fine motor skills: hand dexterity and strength
STEM skills (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math): building, designing, experimenting, solving problems, making predictions
World awareness skills: social studies, animals/habitats, how things work, etc
Music: Interactive action songs, memory, rhythm, timing
Art: Art and crafts projects
Speech: language, social conversation, expressing ideas
Dramatic play: imaginative pretending
Social emotional well being: feelings, self awareness, self management and decision making
And more!
It can be overwhelming to incorporate all these different elements when teaching on your own, but this program makes it easy!
How long does it take to do each lesson plan?
You can do the lessons in as little as 15 minutes of one-on-one time with your child. But there is plenty of content to help enrich your child and stretch it much longer, as desired.
For example, if you are using our recommended class video for the day, that will add an additional 30 minutes of teaching in your child's day (but hands off for you as the parent).
There are also several themed play activities included with each lesson plan. You get to pick and choose which of these activities you want to include in your child's day. Since these activities often encourage open-ended, independent play, they might go quickly or take your child hours depending on how interested your child is in the activity. After all, it's play!
Some of our families like to do things quickly, while others make use of all the suggested resources to fill most of their child's day with fun learning, play, and enrichment!
Our goal is to arm you with all the content YOU MIGHT WANT to provide a great learning experience for your child at home!
How do I access the curriculum and videos?
You can access all our resources through your customer portal on any web-enabled device, such as a phone, tablet, laptop, desktop, or TV. No physical DVDs or materials are sent to you - everything is digital.
Thankfully, there's no need for you to print a huge curriculum binder! (Although we do provide a printable quick-reference version too for those who want it.) Just open the lesson of the day on your device and start teaching! It tells you everything you can say or do with your child. We designed this so you don't even need to prepare ahead of time. It truly is open and go!
For our 30-minute class videos, you can watch these on any device as well. If possible we recommend casting these from your device to a larger family room TV (we'll give tips on how to do that if you need). This will give your child the ideal opportunity to watch, move, and interact using the video and their body on the mat.
What if I want to use just the parent-child curriculum? Or just the videos?
We've designed the curriculum and videos to perfectly complement one another and recommend using both. That being said, the curriculum is fabulous all on its own, as are the videos all on their own. You can implement each component with your child however you see fit. You're the boss, boss!
How does the curriculum progress?
Much like real school, our curriculum gradually increases in complexity over time. We recommend starting with Week 1 and going forward in sequence from there.
We have found all preschool-aged children can progress well along this sequence, whether they are older or younger, beginner or advanced. You will be able to adapt each lesson plan to suit your child's particular level as needed. We give guidance on how you can do that in each lesson plan and using our parent training and bonus resources.
Similarly, our videos are carefully designed to engage learners at different levels. Each video employs a variety of multi-sensory techniques, such as storytelling, visuals, language, music, props, gestures, and large motor actions that help engage learners with different levels of understanding.
For example, in a video activity where letters are being called out, a middle-level child will enjoy trying to slowly locate and jump on each letter, an advanced child will enjoying doing so with greater accuracy, fluency, and speed, and a beginner child will enjoy jumping around and imitating the movements of others as they gradually try to catch on to the academics. All can progress well for their current level of understanding. And then further learning customization can be done using the parent-child curriculum on a one-on-one basis.
To help you follow the recommended sequence, we provide fun sticker chart “maps” to help guide and motivate your child through each weekly theme!
But hey! You are always welcome to jump around out of order to different themes if desired. You can also repeat lessons or videos for more fun and practice!
How long do I have access to the content?
How does forever sound?
What if I have multiple children?
Family learning time is the best! It's easy to adapt our curriculum for more kids just by changing the language a bit and adding additional household props, art supplies, etc.
For our 30-minute class videos, children often like to have their own mat for their own space. But you can also have them share if you like. Try it out with one mat at first and see what works best for your family. We have a number of preschools and daycares that use our program, and they often let two children share each mat.
What if I already have my child in a local preschool?
That's awesome! Many of our families participate in both! They enroll in a local preschool (often for childcare and socialization purposes), but then participate in our preschool program at home as well for the incredible, personalized learning experiences it provides.
There are a lot of hours in a child's week, and this program will give your child the healthy enrichment opportunities that will help them thrive at home.
What are the benefits of this program vs a local preschool?
A local preschool can provide the benefit of childcare and socialization, but when it comes to education, they are no match for the learning experience you'll be able to give your child in this program. Such as:
One-on-one learning opportunities
Personalized teaching
Quicker and deeper learning of academic concepts
Less distractions from other students, misbehavior, etc.
Increased efficiency
More convenient scheduling and timing
Less commuting time and stress
Better transitioning into play at home
Movement-based learning approaches not available in schools
Parent/child bonding
Affordability - big savings compared to in-person school!
Many of our families find this is the only program they need. We invite you to give the program a try to see all these benefits in your own child and family life!
What if I don't want too much screen time for my child?
Way to go! We are on the same page. Children absolutely need to live, play, and learn in the real world to meet their developmental needs, and that is the heart of why this program can benefit your child. Here are three reasons why:
Unlike Youtube and TV programs, which are designed for children to watch as much video content as possible, we discourage overconsumption of our content. We have created our program to allow screens well within healthy recommended limits for preschoolers: just 30 minutes three times per week. This leaves ample time for off-screen learning and play.
Your child will not be consuming our video content in the typical mindless, passive way. Your child will be up on their feet, jumping, kicking, and yoga posing. Other times your child will be sitting still to listen, answer questions, and play interactive thinking games. Unlike a typical "show," this will feel much more interactive - more like what they'd be doing in an amazing in-person preschool class.
Most importantly, the majority of our curriculum is done OFF the screen. Our video content simply acts as a "bridge" to inspire your child directly into one-on-one personal interaction and hands-on play and learning.
If there is an allotment in your week for good screen time, our videos should certainly qualify!
Do I need the mat?
You can do the program without the mat (we have a number of families who do so and make it work), but it will be so much more enjoyable and beneficial to your child to have the mat, and have it when they begin. The mat is used in a wide variety of ways, both as an academic and a physical tool that keeps your child highly engaged.
We recommend purchasing this program first and then ordering your mat. You can order it off Amazon or the manufacturer's website (we'll give you all the links after checkout). You can then take a few days to get oriented with the program while you wait for your mat to arrive. When the mat arrives, you'll be ready to start teaching!!!
Who is Miss Lisa?
Hey there! My name is Lisa Hyde, and I'm an early childhood educator and a mom of five kids.
Like you, I wanted to give my kids a great start to their learning. As a teacher who has taught in preschools for years, I know all too well that true learning foundations are best nurtured in the home, not in school. We only get one chance to build those foundations right, and no preschool can do that as well as a loving parent can.
Sooo...I tried all kinds of methods to teach my kids during their preschool years: preschool-adapted curriculums, play-based curriculums, workbooks, worksheets, Pinterest, apps, etc.
But nothing worked well. Each method swallowed up too much of my busy life, required too much prep and supplies/printing, or created more problems for me. Or, worst of all, they became a boring chore for my kids.
Preschooling was truly exhausting and unsustainable for me as a mom! And I was a teacher with a masters degree, for heaven's sake! I kept thinking... surely there has got to be a better way.
After years of struggle, I now realize that I was going about preschooling all wrong. I've since learned a few key things about how to preschool effectively at home:
1. Work smarter, not harder. (Psst! The person "working" the hardest should be the child, NOT the parent!)
2. Teach from the feet up, not just the neck up. Kids learn best when they are moving, playing, and imagining - and doing so with real 3D stuff. (Seriously, ditch the workbooks and online downloads - there are simple alternatives that are SO MUCH BETTER!)
3. Find Magic. There's magic, adventure, and joy to be discovered in simple things everywhere! Even if you live in the most boring house, you can help your child unearth incredible magic and learning everywhere!
Once you embrace these principles, you get to truly unlock your child's full learning potential. You awaken their wonder, curiosity, and imagination like never before.
I've seen it time and time again with my students and others who have followed this proven, step-by-step approach. It's such a beautiful thing to watch your child go from struggling to thriving!
I don't want you to make the same preschooling mistakes I did. I don't want you to get swallowed up in the latest sea of printables, get duped by the app makers, or get overwhelmed from intensive play-based approaches that overtake your life.
Preschooling really can be simple, affordable, crazy effective, and joyful for both you and your child. I'd love to help you do it.
