Daily Kids Play/activities

Kaput · Feb 7, 2021

My daughter has been home for about a year now. She was supposed to go start Kindergarten last year but I redshirted her because of the virus. It is tough for her to participate in virtual learning - she too hyper and inattentive.
Anyway, our activities at home have gotten so repetitive over the past year. I am hoping that posting here will break up the sad old routine a bit.

@Kaput - It’s been a while! How are you and how is DD doing? She must be acing all her ABA goals thanks to Mom!

Have you looked into a kindergarten home school curriculum for her? That may give you enough to do and also help her stay in the learning mode. I use time4learning for my son. It’s an online home school curriculum and is very visual. It helps the LOs who can’t focus well. They may have a trial period that you can try. I tried it and my DS loved the math videos. I’ve subscribed to it thought we don’t do it daily.

Welcome back! It’s good to see your post.

Hey! Hope all is well on your end.

Past two years have been rough with mostly managing aggression and problem behaviors.

DD is speaking well now!! (although it is mostly perseverative speech and is out of context, I see the faint beginnings of a conversation!)
Her BCBA thinks having her do kindergarten curriculum this year and then sending her to KG next year may cause disruptive behavior in the classroom due to boredom. But I am teaching her how to read because she is interested.

I will check out time4learning, thanks for the resource! I do have way too many subscriptions and materials and not enough time to do them with her.
