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 [...]
That he can. Yesterday we were doing some follow up work to watching Blue’s Clues. He is adept at gluing and figuring things out. He did sequencing, matched similar letters, and he matched sounds with letters. Watching Blue’s Clues was a joy yesterday. They were working with phonics and letter recognition. Taz was spot on [...]
I ordered the fact cards from Little Debbie.com a few weeks ago. They finally came today. I was pleased to see that they are really well made cards. I would hope so, since they are from C-Span. I was tempted to buy the Curious George books, but $16 seems a bit much right now. I [...]
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 [...]
I was thinking about getting floam for my son, as he loves playdoh, but since reading about the not-so-wonderful experiences others like my new friend Angie has had, I don’t think I will be sinking my money into that pit. I was also pretty enthralled by her thoughts about Immunizations. We have been delaying his [...]
I love flash cards. They are so easy to use for learning. I have a bunch that I used as a child that I am now using with my son. On one side there are words that start with the letter on the other side of the card. When you flip the card you see [...]
We haven’t been doing too much by way of formal training. Unschooling is fun that way. You don’t have to run around making plans all the time. We have been reading a few books of his choosing. One talks about the inner workings of the body. He is fascinated by the inner human form. I [...]
I got another unit yesterday. Weird, because we just got the other one. Well, it came with a cd that reads the book to you. He already did that. He also made the small scrapbook and has been putting his artwork in it. I think we will begin to do that with his larger art [...]
Would you believe that my son got all those presents for Christmas PLUS all the toys he already had and he is over here playing with… clear plastic spoons. Gotta love the way children think.
I get too overwhelmed by the joy that is their child through their eyes. I lose all the affirmation that I am doing alright with my son. It’s like looking into a cracked mirror with the silver wearing off the back. There are holes in the reflection and it’s all distorted. Yes, distorted. I think [...]
