Adventures of Tintin are great for a geography.

In the evening,I prepare/put on the table ( what my 7y.o dd can do independently) things for the next day. In the morning ,that is what she does till the baby( now 15 month old ) goes for the nap. Then , we work together for a wile. My schedule have changed multiple times in the last 12 months 😜

My dd and I spent an afternoon looking for a Chickweed ! We live in Ohio,spring is in a full bloom, and we have 3 acres with woods and a stream . We didn't find it 😔, but had a good time looking ,lol. Where did you get/buy your herbs ?

http://www.herbfairies.com I have been looking into this program for the last 3 years, and finally bought it :). My dd(almost 8) is very excited,lol I was just wondering if anybody is using/used it , and how did you do it ?

Thank you for different ideas !!!!

I am looking for a living books/fun supplement to our Botany curriculum. I came across the Quark Chronicles: Botany (Volume 1) by Ernest DeVore (Author). It looks very interesting.... I would like to know if anybody used it , and what do you think ?

Help !!!!!! Lol We had such a wonderful schedule until my youngest dd ( now 14 months)started to walk. My peaceful baby turned into demanding ( but cute )monster ðŸ˜It's not only that she is into everything,but also that unless she gets 100% attention , she screams ! For a last month doing school with my oldest dd (8)has been very stressful ! I need some ideas on how to help both of my kids without getting insane,lol I know that it's not forever, but for right now some practical advice would be very helpful 😜

That sounds great ! I don't know why I didn't think about it myself,lol😛

We are Messianic Jewish believers 😜, but it doesn't have to be just religious. It can be secular!

I am looking for something more practical . Something to what my dd can relate to !!!!

Thank you for a great/inspirational ideas !!! I think I just needed to remember that it doesn't have to be something formal ! We live in a country, have goats,chickens, a dog. We plant a garden in the spring,take zoo classes,spend time outside.... It's ok ( at least for right now ), lol😊😜

Well.. We haven't been very successful in doing the Nature Study ..I feel bad that we are not doing it every week , but do we have to ? How do you incorporate it into your curriculum/ schedule ? Some success stories will be very helpful 😜

Thank you very much for a wonderful ideas!!!!

Are we going to be ok without poetry/Shakespeare, lol I always wanted to read more poetry with my dd ( almost 8) ! So we will start, but within few weeks it will not be getting done in the regular basis. It seems that there is always something else , more important that needs to be done, places to go.....and before I know we are not doing it at all. Please share your positive experience with poetry ( if you have)😜 and how to fit it in !!! Thank you
