The Mother's Heart




"The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom." - Henry Ward Beecher

I believe that literally, 'learning should be child's play', yet I know that many parents want to ensure that their little ones have a good start in learning. The purpose of my site is to give ideas for "gentle", age-appropriate activities that will benefit preschool children and not burn them out.

These are the newest or most recently updated pages on this site, with some blog entries inbetween too!

Join my preschool-activities-at-home egroup, where we can share our experiences of teaching and raising preschoolers. It's a place to come and chat, ask questions, offer tips and advice and enjoy the ups and downs of life with little ones.

"Mothers write on the hearts of their children what the hand of time can't erase." (Unknown)

Special Offer until 09/09/2009

Did you know, that you can share your knowledge and expertise on the internet and use it to generate additional income? You don't even have to have a product to sell - just INFO!

As a homeschooling mom of 5 kids, I was passionate about stimulating children and so I created this site.

It now earns me $1000-$2000a month (sometimes even more)..and all I do on it nowadays is send out a monthly newsletter and do a little tweaking here and there.

Its a great source of passive income that allows me to be a stay-at-home mom and yet still survive in this tough economy.

I knew nothing about the Net or site building when I began, but I bought a package that guided me through the milestones, one baby step at a time.

It is ideal for people that are beginners in the realm of online business, but for those that have some technical savvy, its awesome too! The tools are amazing.

Anyway, Site Build It, (the company whose package I use) has a SPECIAL OFFER until 9 September and so I thought there might be others out there, that need to look at new income options.

This is ideal as you can work at it in your own time and can still be there for your family.

Even if you don't have a clue what you'd create your site about at the moment, Site Build It has a brainstorming tool to help you choose a niche -

As they say, "We all know something about something".
