About this title

Synopsis

EARLY EDUCATION AT HOME is a complete course of instruction for children ages 3-5, using simple, inexpensive materials that can be found in the home. It includes all the basic concepts (such as letters, colors, numbers, and shapes), as well as areas such as manners, health and safety, and character development. Although this curriculum is structured to fit a regular 36-week school year, it is flexible enough to be used in almost any home setting under almost any schedule. Even working parents can select specific activities for evening or weekend hours. EARLY EDUCATION AT HOME is an ideal way for parents or day-care providers to stimulate the development of children in the comfort and security of their own homes.
