I am in no way a homeschooling genius. Nor am I a seasoned homeschool Mom, but I am a Mom who loves to homeschool. I mean, I really love teaching my children.
Recently, I have come across a couple of things that have made me go nuts for knowledge and crazy for creativity! (Yep, I really wrote that. Uh-huh, I am cheesy like that. Yes, my son says I am over the top quite often.)
Alright, drum roll please . . . .
#1 The True Princess
Ok, so this isn't really a homeschool tool, but it is all three of my daughters recent favorite. A book about what it really takes to be a princess, it shows that virtue is better than vanity and we are all in service to a King. Love, love, love this book.
#2 MindWare Imaginet Shapes
A magnet game chock full of thinking skills that keep little hands busy, learning and out of trouble while Momma is helping the Bigs do math.
#3 Expedition Earth
This curriculum availabe for download is suitable for my kindergardner all the way through my fourth grader. I just alter the work a bit and everyone is challenged. Even my little tyke has fun listening in. They are learning so much about the world and having a blast while they do it. I never hear "Are we done yet?", or "Do we have to do this?" They just smile and say "Do we get to do our memory songs today?" Genius product. Simply gold.
Well, there you have it. Those are my three latest and greatest. I want to give a big thank you to my Auntie who bought the MindWare magnets for us.
What are you teaching your children today?
Welcome friend. Today is a promise. Unfortunately, I cannot make you any. I cannot promise you perfection or, at times, even sanity. *wink* I am just here, searching for the same thing as you. Hope. Joy. Love. And I'm finding it in the journey. So, if you like coffee as much as I do, why don't you pour yourself a cup, take a deep breathe and stay awhile. Maybe we can find the joy together.
