There are tons of online educational games out there, and many, many collections of them, too. However, I've found that most of these collections also include quite a few non-learning games - arcade type or shoot-em-ups - that have no redeeming value. So, check this site out http://www.funbrain.com/
I too have a young one who dislikes educational games found online. The reality of the situation is that what you can find online to educate your child in the form of games is going to be poor. The best thing you can do is sit down with your child and teach him yourself unfortunately.
I don't believe you need to. Check with the school or go to www.k-12.com
There are many good reasons to homeschool your son and I know that it is really scary to think about your child going to school one day. To prepare your child for it there are some good curriculums like Horizons Kindergarten Phonics & Reading Set, Hooked on Phonics, Horizons Math and EarlyBird Math.
In Kindergarten, your child will be learning about numbers, colors and letters, and beginning to figure out how to think about them. Games that show children numbers and encourage counting, like Chutes and Ladders, are great for kids in the Kindergarten age. Leapfrog makes many programs that make reading and math fun for kids, as well, and this is going to help your child learn. Any game that involves counting individual objects/spaces on a board will help your child's brain mature, and games that involve spelling and naming letter sounds will prepare your child to read.
I recommend going to a website called CoolMath for simple, educational online games that are usually fun. Another less educational however more expansive place for games is the website for Kongregate.
no I think that the 6 are going to kindergarten.
How to Prepare Your Child for KindergartenMany parents are concerned with their child's preparedness for kindergarten. And while it's normal to have anxieties about enrolling your child in school, there are many ways to calm both your and your child's fears and apprehensions.Meet Your Child's TeacherOnce your child has been enrolled in kindergarten, it's a good idea to meet with his teacher. Many schools have "meet and greet" occasions, where parents, teachers and other school employees gather to introduce themselves, voice and address concerns and discuss the educational goals for the coming school year. If your child's school does not offer this, you can still schedule an appointment with your child's kindergarten teacher. This can help parents feel a little more comfortable about sending their child to school, which can, in turn, help children feel more comfortable.Prepare Your Child for a New EnvironmentParents should also prepare their children for being a new environment and in the care of practical strangers. Parents should reassure their children that teachers and aides are there to help and teach, and will look out for the safety and well-being of all the kids in the class. If your child still has anxieties concerning their school or teacher, consider taking your child on a tour of the school. Seeing his future classroom and meeting his teacher may help calm your child's fears. For added safety and peace of mind, make sure your child memorizes his phone number, address and other contact information.Practice Makes PerfectOne way to make sure your child is ready for kindergarten is to go over with him what will happen on an average school day. Make sure your child is accustomed to getting up early, and have him practice things like going to the bathroom unassisted. For lunchtime, make sure your child can open his thermos and lunchbox on his own, and knows how to open milk cartons, juice boxes, etc.Many teachers recommend that parents help prepare their children for school by teaching them basic life and educational skills prior to kindergarten enrollment. This can include teaching them alphabet and how to write their names, and how to tie their shoes and dress themselves. Teaching pre-kindergarten children basic social skills, like sharing, manners and how and when to ask questions, is also recommended.Make Sure Your Child is HealthyChildren should also have a complete medical check-up before beginning kindergarten. All immunizations should be up to date, and parents should have a copy of their child's vaccination record. Eyesight and hearing examinations should be performed, as well.
