Why Are We On Pinterest

Pinterest has become a favorite of ours since joining 2 years ago we both knew it was a platform where educational activities belonged.  It’s creating an amazing bridge between teachers and parents like no other.  This is our philosophy in setting up our Pinterest Boards.  Believing that it’s a chance for you as a parent to come in and “Open our Teacher Files” finding ways to support your child’s education at home. Plus we’re reading and pinning the best to save you time online so that you can spend more time with your family.
