In the summer I set out to find just the right curriculum for my little mixed age group. It always seemed like I was burning the midnight oil prepping for the upcoming days. That journey led me to researching the top rated children's curriculum that were hands-on with activities that would prepare my soon to be Kindergartners to be ready for school as well as meet the needs of my little toddling ones. I finally settled on four top companies, wrote to them and asked if they would be interested in an honest review of their products. They all were delighted and quickly shipped out the curriculum. This review is the final one of the four part series and will go into detail about what you can expect from Carol's Affordable Curriculum. First, let me say, "WOW!" I could tell that Carol, the CEO of CAC (Carol's Affordable Curriculum) had to have been a licensed in-home childcare provider in her previous life. It shows in such an amazing way....That's not to say that it wouldn't be suited for a center. It absolutely would. But Carol takes painstaking efforts to come up with daily lessons that appeal to a wide age range and ability. Not only that, she provides a monthly menu (that looks to me like it would be approved by the food program saving the provider HOURS of food planning), tips and tricks for growing your business, and a self-assessment checklist that really makes you stop and think about how you are presenting yourself to your children and clients. Enough of the chit chat....Let me just show you!!This page right here. This one made me squeal out loud! This was also the ONE SINGLE PAGE that told me Ms. Carol had walked in our shoes. That she understood exactly what the day of the in-home childcare provider was like. Why? Not one other curriculum included this page. This is a major time saver for me. A menu.....FOR A MONTH! SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!! Maybe I am easy to please. Maybe I should get out more often....maybe....just maybe....Carol get's it! Yep...that's the one. She has walked a mile in our shoes. So she includes this major time saver. I can take this bad boy to the store with me and use it as a meal planner AND my shopping list. You know what? She even includes recipes! |
