To make your own Doman dots, there are several downloads in the BrillKids library that you can simply print off and laminate. I didn't know about BK when I stuck all the stickers on  wub and I didn't even think of using a bingo dabber  rolleyes

 Kerileanne99 - I think my virtual bump must have gotten bigger!

That's incredible news about A & her maths! Wow, such a success story. I bet it is because you had laid the groundwork. It's pretty incredible to think that a 24 month old could count to 100 by ones and tens, and then you add in subitizing - I'm in awe. I look forward to hearing more about her progress.

I am planning on getting LR & LM this week, I just need to get my new laptop as this one is about to give up the ghost. My DD really loved the LM trial and it has caused all manner of upset that the trial is over.

MummyRoo -  thanks for reminding me of that download.

IPAD Apps

Hello Everyone
I was reading some of Larry Sanger's blog and he has some great links to some Ipad Apps as well as a review that he has done. A big thank-you to him:

Thanks for those links Scruff...I'm still trying to decide whether to get an ipad or put the cash towards a music programme...

A gorgeous book set teaching basic physics principles (light, sound, motion) is by Geoff Waring and published by Walker books. They are about a curious kitten called Oscar, and are titled Oscar and the... Cricket/Bat/Moth/Frog.


MummyRoo, thank you so much for this recommendation - I ordered all of them and they are a HUGE hit in our house.

I just found them and ordered them too! Any reading-based science is exceptionally well-received in our house and these are extremely cute...our local library had one (Oscar and the Cricket)  and A threw a tantrum when it had tone returned, after extending twice!

I'm so glad the Oscar books were a hit! I've had them for ages and had a long, impatient wait for my son to be able appreciate them as much as I do! I only wish there were more!  LOL

I have four books - I haven't seen any others. Maybe I should look harder!

I have Oscar & the bat - frog - moth - snail - cricket - bird

She keeps asking for 'Cat & Bat' over and over today. And I have noticed her paying far more attention to sounds in her environment since we first read it.

So living in the US indefinitely, and planning to homeschool out of necessity as well as love, I am hoping to be able to meet both US standards as well as UK.  There are so many resources out there, and it seems as though if we shoot for a UK standard (and then some! ) via classical education, as well as doing US specific topics, this in not only entirely pausible but quite ambitious as it is a Eurocentric model with additional classical educational focus...are there any other expats hoping to achieve this? My child is a dual citizen and I want to make sure that regardless of where we live she is above standard!
There are many Internet-based curriculums for older kids, but my LO I'd approaching the available material seemingly at the speed of light?! Is anyone else considering a program of this nature and are you utilizing the following?
Any input greatly appreciated!

I just found www.gridclub.com. I have no idea if it's good but it might be worth checking it out via the free trial as it's linked to the UK curriculum. If you see this in time, this coupon is valid www.livingsocial.com/cities/513/deals/279562-one-year-subscription-to-kids-learning-website for the next few hours.
