My daughter is strange. She gets a ridiculous amount of enjoyment from doing schoolwork. So, oftentimes even after she does all her worksheets from the curriculum I assigned her she still wants more.
Below are a few websites that sustain her and I suppose any child eager to learn all through the day via worksheets, videos, reading, and more.
School Sparks has definitely been one of my favorite websites for Mischa. In the past I have printed out nearly 15 pages a week and could have done more. They have worksheets suitable for pre-k and kindergarten aged students in math, reading, writing, fine motor skills, and more.

First-School is another great one. It is a little bit more coloring oriented and might be a little easy for kindergartners but if your child likes to color (like mine) then these pages are perfect to print out. They have pages that are animal themed, holiday themed, alphabet themed, and a bunch more. I shouldn't neglect to point out that they also have a bunch of craft ideas to do with young children. This is a great website to look through.

TLS Books provides worksheets suitable for pre-k to 6th grade in a wide variety of subjects. Language arts, math, geography, science, nursery rhymes... they have just about any subject you can think of. Again this is another site that is easy to look through for quite some time... but when you do you'll find about 100 worksheets you want to do with your child and it's all worth it.

National Geographic is a great website for bored kids. It has photos, videos, games, at home activities, printable pages, and even has lesson plans. This is definitely a website you can get stuck on for quite some time. An extra plus is that your kids can be next to you learning as well, because what child isn't interested in learning about cheetahs, meerkats, and polar bears?

Kids Answers is another great website for kids. I enjoyed Ken Ham and all his material for adults on the Answers in Genesis website so I was thrilled to see there is an entire section for children that contains free resources like videos, animal information, and printable activities.

Last free resource we like is our local library. Mischa could live at the library. She'll sit at the table with a stack of books next to her and read as I search for school related books. The only time this resource costs is when Mischa decides to put a library book in her bookshelf at home and we don't notice until they send me an email.
So, there they are- mine and Mischa's favorite free resources. I hope they can become some of your favorite resources as well.
Happy Homeschooling!
