Keeping preschool learning at home Green!

Sure we want our kids to learn and we want them to have all the free space to do that. But have you noticed how much paper you thru? It's absolutely absurd, it's coming out my ears! Here are some ideas to green it up and still have what you need to get the job done!

Tip #1 Recycle what you can. This will allow you to still do things like paint.

Tip #2 You can get dry erase books for things like writing. ( Got some today!) You can even get a dry erase board (or in my case a piece of paper inside of a clear cover sheet) to post up things like letter of the week.

Tip #3 Make a book out of some of your favorite things, maybe make a story to go with it for you to read to your child, it makes for double uses of your paper and time put into the learning!

Tip #4 We got a preschool book so that the pages of paper are limited.

Tip #5 Keep all your preschool supplies put up when not using them and make sure they have some they can do whatever with, this keeps you from replacing a ton of supplies.

I hope these tips help you!
