After watching my son struggle to focus at school I decided to withdraw him and jump into homeschool. I knew he understood The curriculum they were doing at school because he was also doing it at home with no problem. So when I had multiple conferences with his teacher about him not being able to do his school work I decided it was time to do it myself. We are now a year into homeschooling and he is thriving. Sometimes school can be overwhelming for kids and it's not natural for them to sit down for 7 to 8 hours. I focus on a lot of interactive learning and it works well for my 2-year-old and my 6-year-old. I have listed some products that have really been key opponents to thriving in our homeschool experience.

We don't let our kid have lots of screen time but also, she's a very outdoors kid naturally and refuses to be inside if she can :) when we're inside, we try to put on things that we can possibly all engage in or where we are singing/learning songs together. We also don't want to see uncomfortable subject matters if possible and focus on learning matter, like language or pre-school learning. Hope any of this helps when you need!

I’m a toddler mom in Manhattan. This list is focused on free or low-cost toddler activities.
A few tips:
1. New York residents can pay-as-you wish to enter many museums. Visitors from out of state will pay regular entry prices. Children under 3 are free at many museums.
2. Most of these locations are on subways stops that might not have elevators. Make sure to bring a lightweight stroller that you can fold down if necessary.
3. Regarding public transit: I actually prefer taking buses to subways when possible. You will need to fold your stroller down to get on but you will avoid all of the stairs in the subway stations.
4. If you are out walking around and need a restroom, walk confidently into a hotel and find their lobby restroom.
