This program consists of 104 complete, easy-to-follow, scripted lessons. These include holiday parties, field trips, and a graduation that has been completely planned for you. Each lesson includes a materials list for all materials needed in the lesson,  detailed preparation instructions, book suggestions, and all the crafts, snacks, games, activities, writing practice worksheets, and music you need.  It also includes all the adorable full-color illustrations you’ll need during the lesson.

Lessons are thematic, and academic, have an emphasis on Values, and are Scripted.

  • Thematic:  Each lesson is centered around a theme that children are interested in.
  • Academic:  We mainly focus on letter recognition and sound, number recognition and quantity relationships, colors, and shapes.  The academic activities are related to the theme of the lesson.
  • Value Emphasis:  Intertwined with the theme, moral values are taught, like learning right from wrong, gratitude, kindness, empathy, service, and good manners. 
  • Scripted:  The detailed lesson plans are completely written out for you, word for word, in the order you will be doing each activity.  The themes have all been researched, you’ll have access to all the music through our Spotify playlist, and all the directions for games, crafts, and songs are included.

YES! This program is perfect for you. In fact, it was written with you in mind. The lessons are scripted for those who are nervous and unsure about creating lessons and teaching. 

Our lessons are easy to follow and very simple to teach!

This program was specifically created for 4-6 year old’s, but can definitely work for older and younger children!  If you are teaching 3 year old’s, simplify the lessons. They have shorter attention spans so they will need fewer, shorter activities.  This program will also be a wonderful resource for those of you who teach kindergarten or even first grade.

Building Brilliant Little Minds was designed to be done 3 days a week. This includes 2 class days lasting between 2 and 2 ½ hours each,  and 1 field trip each week.  For example, preschool could be held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Monday and Wednesday would be class from 9:00 to 11:30. Friday would be a field trip. 

Of course, these are only suggestions. Set up your school schedule in a way that works best for you and your students. This curriculum is meant to be easily curated to the needs of you and your students. 

Schedule Options:

  • If you would like the class to last longer each day, add time for creative free play, outside time, or more story time.
  • If you want to have preschool every day, use half the lesson on Monday and the other half on Tuesday. Repeat the songs and learning activities on both days. Children learn best by repetition. Add time for creative free play, outside time, and more story time. This schedule may work better for younger children.

This program was also created to work best with 2 to 4 children. If you have more than 4 children in your class, some activities can easily be adjusted.  If you have a large class, these activities would make great center activities or other small group activities.

  • The lessons are easy to prepare!  Some will take longer than others.  Some have more activities that will need to be printed and laminated while others have more items to gather.  We suggest looking at the lessons at the beginning of each month, so you can pick up all needed supplies while you’re already at the store.  It saves a lot of time to print, laminate and cut illustrations and activities for the whole month.  Then you can work on them while you have down time.  We love cutting out the illustrations in the evening while we’re watching a good movie.  

Most of the activities you create will be used multiple times during the school year which is why we recommend spending the extra time laminating.

At this time you can purchase 1 month at a time or the entire program.  This is because the lessons build on one another.  Many of the activities you create will be used in other lessons.  If you choose to buy 1 month at a time, we do offer a bundle with those needed activities at an additional price.

At this time, Building Brilliant Little Minds comes in PDF form that you can print on standard 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheets of paper at home or at an office supply store.

Due to the digital nature of our products, we are unable to offer any refunds, exchanges or returns.

After you purchase Building Brilliant Little Minds, you will be given access to our Spotify playlists which will correspond with the monthly lessons. You can also find them here. 

No. The purchase of this program entitles the buyer to reproduce the illustrations and activities for their personal classroom only. We have worked very hard for many years creating this program to help you become a successful teacher. Please do not infringe on our copyright and respect the time, passion, and effort spent creating Building Brilliant Little Minds preschool program by not sharing, loaning, or distributing content to family and friends. Thank you!
