Last week I set up this Rocks and Minerals Discovery table for the kids to explore with! Let me tell you that they L-O-V-E-D it, and it was hard to wrap it up and move on to the next thing. (Don’t you just hate when you have to pry them away from learning in order to get them to eat …Read the Rest
Do you homeschool in the car? I do….and apparently I’m not the only one. Apparently, there is an entire book devoted to homeschooling in the car….. CarSchooling by Diane Flynn Keith. (I don’t have this book…but I do love herClickSchooling website!) We do quite a bit of school in the car. My opinion is that when you homeschool you just …Read the Rest
How can we learn about owls without dissecting some Owl puke? I know right….we’d be kicked out of the Homeschool Co-op if we tried to pull a stunt like that! (snicker) Actually, we didn’t dissect “real” owl puke, we used the synthetic stuff. We learned just as much about the dietary needs of owls, and I didn’t have to scream …Read the Rest
This little guy sure has an expression doesn’t he? He looks a bit Twitterpaited if you ask me. (That term from Bambi might have a whole new meaning now that Twitter is so popular!)

I say reading lightly because the text was a little thick for my 4 year old, but the photographs were quite awe inspiring. So much so that on the spur of the moment we decided to make a mural mosaic of one of them. We …Read the Rest

Yikes, I know some of you are going through withdrawls: Okay….So it’s most likely only me going through the withdrawls. Moving on…. A printable from me to you. Fantastic right? Oh….. Are you wondering …Read the Rest
We’re in the club…. Seriously, do we get some kind of induction award or something? Ya’ll remember the day you came home with a set of Base 10 blocks right? It’s like crossing the line between “We’re thinking about Homeschooling ……and…… We are a Homeschooling family” (I’m not kidding….It’s even mentioned on YouTube …that means it’s got to be true!) …Read the Rest
Well, we couldn’t keep the Oil Pastels put away for very long! They’re just too much fun, and too perfect for the Coral Reef theme we’ve been learning about. This time we added in a little “Sandy” fun, to learn more about Starfish. We’ve checked out this book from our local library, aptly named, “Starfish” by Edith Thacher Hurd. So …Read the Rest
