Hello, I’m Michelle and I’m all about helping moms and educators with young children. Taming Little Monsters is filled with crafts and activities that are designed to teach kids, from 0 – 6 years, specific skills using a play based learning approach.
What you’ll find on Taming Little Monsters
I have a large collection of crafts and activities that cover a range of early learning areas, including:
- STEM
- Arts and Crafts
- Free Printables
- Sensory Activities
- Fine Motor Activities
- Easy DIY toys
I also love to group activities into themes, which are perfect to help you get organized if you work in an early years classroom. These include:
- Major holidays (e.g. Christmas or Halloween.)
- Seasons (e.g. Summer and Fall.)
- Year round favorites (e.g. Dinosaurs, Pirates or the Weather.)
A little bit about me
After graduating from high school I spent years working with toddlers and preschoolers in daycare settings and getting a Bachelor of Science. Since then I’ve become a mom of two monsters who love nothing more than turning my hair grey.
I thought that years spent working with young children had prepared me for motherhood. (You can laugh at that because boy was I wrong.) I needed the village to help me with my kids, and I found it. Online.
I didn’t have a circle of elders giving me their wisdom when my kids weren’t sleeping or being fussy eaters. Instead I had moms and teachers, from all over the world sharing their knowledge and ideas.
I can’t look after your kids for you while you catch up on some much needed sleep, but I can share my creativity with you.
If you’re looking for a way to connect with your child, at their level, try bonding over some of these fun and easy play ideas.
