For this school year, I found a Christian Pre-school Curriculum that I thought was very structured, yet simple enough for me to tackle in my first official year of homeschooling. I had done some with Hayley last year, but that was more with writing and learning numbers. Bright Beginnings is an actual curriculum that has an outline for everyday.
Here is Amazon's Editorial Review:
Bright Beginnings is a user-friendly, all-inclusive curriculum that allows busy parents to provide their child with the many benefits of an early education at home. This two-volume set includes 36 weeks of complete lesson plans. The only materials needed are a Bible, household supplies, and some optional library books. This program is designed for four- to six-year-olds and is flexible enough to be used in any home under any schedule. Bright Beginnings helps children grasp important concepts and skills such as letters, shapes, numbers, colors, gross and fine motor coordination, listening, visual discrimination, classifying, and much more. Character training and Bible knowledge is interwoven throughout the curriculum, creating a balanced perspective both academically and spiritually.
Subjects include:
• Bible
• Language Skills
• Math
• Character Development
• Health, Safety and Manners
• Memory Verse
• God’s World
• Physical Education
• Art, Snacks and Music
Bright Beginnings also includes 33 worksheets and A through Z flashcards. Best of all, in this uncertain would, you can feel confident that your child is getting a well-rounded, Christian-based head start! If you are looking for one book that has it all, this is it!

One thing that I liked was that even though it is structured, it is flexible. The God's World section is a weekly theme topic, and you basically just pick what theme you want to do what week. Everything is outlined for the days, but you choose when you do that topic. I like that.
