So we did a “big things boogie” tonight. Ten minutes, ten large things from his room to be given away or tossed. Another 10 minutes, 10 large things to put away. He is so happy with the progress he is seeing as he daily puts away things in his room, gets rid of things that [...]
Mrs. Marie, a great Bible teacher at our church, sowed into my son’s life. She gave him a dollar to put in the baby bottles at our church and a dollar for ice cream. The baby bottle program is designed to donate money to babies that would otherwise die without it. There is a whole [...]
Today he decided to do more words. I cannot stop this kid! He is loving learning on his little chalkboard easel. We did a number of words. He also remembered that some words have a long A sound because they end in E. The two words he did today for that were cake and cage. [...]
My son and I made up a bunch of Valentine’s Day cards for his library class yesterday. He did most of the tracing, cutting, gluing, and writing. They came out really nice. I am proud of how well he followed directions. He is also dedicating himself to his Jiu Jitsu classes more. He did me [...]
Well, at least that’s what we saw on a post from the National Geographic photo a day. He insisted on trying to replicate it with his crafty skills: The head was on there, but he didn’t glue it back on yet. It is a proper 3 part spider when it is all done. Gotta love [...]
Ain’t this a blip? I kept telling my son he wasn’t getting those aqua dots. I just kept picturing him swallowing them or feeding them to the dog. Boy am I glad that I followed my gut and told him no. Look at this: Scientists say a chemical coating on the beads, when ingested, metabolizes [...]
Today has been pretty busy on the homeschool front. We painted gourds. I did two and he did two: He did watch Noggin this morning, which he usually does. He played video games, also a norm anymore. Now he is cutting paper shapes as he sees fit. I have a triangle sitting here, a rectangle [...]
When we went to Walmart, I decided to pick up a few things for the Kid. I was able to get him some googly eyes, foam stars, and post it note sight words. Did you know that Post It makes educational tools? I didn’t, till now. Here is what happened with the googly eyes and [...]
We have been doing a lot of workbook activities of late. He has been really excelling at getting things done. He is the initiator and begs to do his books nearly daily. We have worked on his penmanship, spelling, letter recognition, reading, simple math, and artsy things. We made insects out of pipe cleaners. He [...]
I am forever getting magazines and catalogs in the mail so that I can pick the best supplies for our little homeschooling environment. I forgot all about using starfish for crafts until I saw this website. I have used shells with him before, though. I like the variety of starfish you can order. I never [...]
