If you have spent some time here at Natural Beach Living you already know that we love geography. If this is your first time here I hope our love for learning comes out. For years we have been enjoying learning all about different places and different cultures. I think it’s important to start introducing geography at a young age and Early Explorers really helps with that.
Exploring the World
Geography for Toddlers and Preschoolers
Each month you are swooped away on an adventure with Max, Mia, and Bells favorite dog Toby. Each Kit that we have experienced so far has come with a wonderful 20 page activity book. We were introduced to all of the continents in our book as well as several remarkable landmarks. After an enjoyable afternoon of going through our booklet and learning about our new map, I put together a fun lesson with animal matching as well as matching our landmark figures to the continents on the map. There are so many wonderful hands on activities and ways to learn with each Early Explorers Kit.
Little Passports wonderful new program for preschoolers is geared towards children ages 3 to 5, but we are actually enjoying it with my 2 and 6 year old to go along with their older brothers World Explorers kit. This gives the little ones a chance to experience the joy of learning about new cultures. It has been so much fun already and we always look forward to getting our new adventure in the mail.
Every month, your child will be introduced to a new theme like animals, music, and landmarks. Early Explorers is designed with preschoolers in mind and provides fun and educational activities. During the first month, a Traveler’s Kit arrives in a fun orange suitcase. It holds everything a child needs to start learning about the world, but get ready because that is just the beginning of exploring this wonderful world.
You can check out another review I did and learn a little more by clicking here. You can also see how we incorporate both Little Passports and Early Explorers into our homeschool curriculum by checking out our Asia Continent study.
Everything featured here except for the animals and continent cards came with our Early Explorers subscription. The continent cards are a free download from Imagine our Life and the animals are Schleich.

February 12, 2015 at 11:46 amI love exploring new places with my kiddos even if we are just exploring the back yard or the woods around our house. This kit can help us open our eyes to so many future world adventures.

February 12, 2015 at 1:49 amI don’t really travel abroad (though I would love to visit several places in Europe and South America!). I do love checking out new town in the US and some of my favorites have been Memphis, Seattle, and Chicago.

February 11, 2015 at 7:10 pmMy mind is reeling with places I have explored and places I am craving to explore! I am wanting to explore more of the new england coast and up through Canada. Then there is more of the south that I want to see as well. And oh how I can’t wait for my littles to be a bit bigger so we can really explore the national parks…
so much exploring to do!

February 11, 2015 at 4:18 pmWhen my daughter was just about 2 we used to get Little Passports in the mail. However, we did stop since we found we couldn’t go with everything that came our way. Now that we are starting to explore the world around us more, and study geography, I keep thinking this would be so handy to have coming again.

Joni Anderson says
February 11, 2015 at 1:29 amI would love this for my two year old. We don’t have much of an opportunity to travel, but I would love to take her to the East Coast (US) to see where her grandpa’s family comes from and maybe even to England someday.

February 11, 2015 at 1:03 amWe’re happy exploring our backyard right now, we live in the woods and there is so much to find there.
Erin Huie says
February 10, 2015 at 1:59 pmMy son is fascinated by all of the different animals we see at the zoo. We try to explain where they’re from while we’re there, but this kit would help direct the discussion when we get home.

February 9, 2015 at 5:50 pmMany of the places we seem to want to visit are in Europe so I would say England, since so many of my sons favorite shows originate there!
