To start off the post: Last Friday I spent my prep day getting ready for the Around The World: Map Week theme at my preschool. I had already set up our centers in my mind and I knew they would be extra fun for the kids...encouraging them to travel around the world to different places! Over the past three years I have been collecting the TOOB sets available at many toy and craft stores (I get mine at Michaels because I get a teacher discount and I can always find a 20%-50% off coupon to use on top of that!). So, I centered my Center Activitys/Work Stations this week around some of my TOOB sets.
