curriculum clean out

I just LOVE Homeschool Shopping.

And I REALLY LOVE when I find things for a bargain.

But then of course…..

(since it’s such a great deal)

I purchase more then I need.

(Really….you’d think I ran a Zoo over here)

I’m implusive like that.

Bad for me….but Good for You, because this week I’ll be participating in the Curriculum Clean Out!

The Curriculum Clean Out is a Blog Carnival for everyone else out there like me who has extra Homeschool stuff lying around, stuff that:

“We will someday, possibly down the road, in the next seven years, put to good use.”

In reality it sits in the back shelf of a closet never to be seen again.

(But we’re somehow comforted by the fact that IF we ever DID learn about Mollusks native to Europe we have just the right creatures tucked away)

I’m kidding…..There are no LIVING creatures in my closets….

Anymore.

But anyway, I thought I was the only one with an overabundance of Homeschooling materials that are perfectly useable, but just didn’t fit our Family Teaching style.

Apparently there are others out there with the same exact ~~problems~~ blessings as me:

Too much Homschool Stuff.

(Enter: Curriculum Clean Out) props to Jolanthe

And we all have clean closets again.

(Sort of…..You know that is, if we don’t WIN anything from someone else’s closet)

But moving along to what I have to give this year:

Create Your Own Pop Up Books

This is a fantastic art set for your children, (Teacher Choice Award 2009) and it includes everything you need to make two adorable hardcover pop up books! There are stickers, markers, pre-folded and sticky tabbed pop-up shapes. There are also a few pages of instructions for how to assemble the different pop-up’s!

There is one Large Book, and one Smaller Book, and the recommended age level is 5+. Sissy (7) easily handled this project on her own, but Bubba (4) worked on his book with Mom…..and they turned out adorable! Here is my little guys book he (we) made about his Dad:
