Need free resources? They have them. Need new fresh motivating ideas? There are plenty.
Do you want someone who understands that five-year-old kids have the attention span of a fruit fly? Read on.
I researched the top kindergarten teacher blogs before starting my own. I looked for the ones that offered the most information and free resources.
These are the five best kindergarten teacher blogs out there. They are in no particular order as they are all No. 1 in my book.
The name alone is brilliant. Kindergarten life is foreign to all who have never taught a lesson with 25 pairs of hands reaching into the air to tell you something completely off topic.
Kindergarten is definitely a smorgasboard of tiny people with so many different thoughts and learning styles.
Greg Smedley Warren, a Kindergarten Rock Star, and his husband, Jason (The Mister) are creative, ingenious and have amazing fashion sense. Honestly, I don’t know which one is cuter.
They have built their brand and blog into a resourceful place where kindergarten teachers find incredible lesson ideas and instructional strategies.
Their amazing bootcamps encompass all content areas with motivating and engaging themes and strategies.
Kindergarten Smorgasboard also provides videos that will demonstrate how a content area is taught. This is extremely helpful.

Honorable Mention
Did I mention that I have a blog? 😊 I like to write and have been published on blogs such as Scary Mommy, We Are Teachers and School Leaders Now.
Well, that lead me to want to start my own blog because it can’t be that hard, right?
Wrong!
It is the most time-consuming idea I have ever had! (with the exception of having kids) These bloggers make it look easy, but it is……..
HARD!!!!
The technical and social media aspect has almost killed me, but you will find lots of freebies that are easy to download on my site.
Thank you to Feedspot and Jotform and Ranked Blogs for giving us some recognition on their blogs.
