How to do Preschool at Home

Preschool at home: How to do homeschooling with my preschooler #homeschoolPreschool

Do you ever get confused on what Preschool even is? How do I even get started on figuring out how to teach preschool to my 3 or 4 or 5 year old? What should my kid learn in Preschool in order to best prepare for Kindergarten?

In this video, I answer these questions, talk about the steps on how to get started on homeschooling, the list of topics that preschoolers learn, and about the different ways you can teach your child.
