We got the curriculum the day before yesterday. I am well pleased with what I saw in the package. Take a look for yourself: You are looking at the Alphabet flash cards, the thick workbook, and teacher’s manual. I have ordered the butterfly habitat and foam letters to go along with this package. I hope [...]
A Bee-utiful edition of the Carnival of Homeschooling has just gone live. I can tell you that this is one of the best carnivals ever. It is chock full of information and great articles. I love how the author made every article work with the theme. Fantastic job by all who submitted and the author, [...]
I did get to finish watching the show last night. I still don’t feel as though the grandfather is repentant of HIS actions. The grandmother is suffering because of her negligence. I mean, come on, she thought that she would be able to stay with the little girl all the time and never leave her [...]

Blogged in real time I missed the show last week, but I would have watched if I had known it was coming on.

This just made me laugh. I can picture my son trying the same thing. He can already do so much on my computer. Kim Komando relates how her son became a computer hacker of sorts and he is only in Kindergarten! Talk about genius My son can do pretty much anything he wants on the [...]
Heh. I should ask, because I still have issues cleaning my own room. How do you get them to clean their rooms? Do you give them treats? Do you promise them money? Do you help them do it? How old do you think they should be before they are responsible to clean their room entirely [...]
Most kids in school have to make at least one flip book in their lifetime. I remember making them for fun as a child. I was always fascinated by how you could make a series of inanimate pictures come to life. Take Flippies Custom Flip Books for instance. I can hardly believe that people are [...]
I read to my son as much as I can stand. He likes to hear the same stories over and over again, till he has them memorized. I used to do the same thing to my mother. His favorite: Peter Pan. Mine: The Billy Goats Gruff & The three bears. He is trying to read [...]
