Christian homeschooling integrating Classical and Charlotte Mason principles
What happens when a little boy gets hold of the camera. …if only I, too, would open my eyes to see and appreciate all the little things. Yes, I just posted a picture of the toilet. Sorry y’all. Those boys convince me to do crazy stuff. Even really embarrass myself. Photo Credits: David, Age 6, […]
The original pin: a cute and simple recipe to celebrate our study of mummies and King Tut. Only three ingredients? Now THIS is my kind of cooking project! …or so I thought… My mummies did not look so cute. They lost their eyeballs and were coming out of their wrappings – something akin to a genuine […]
When I printed out Grammar Land: Or Grammar In Fun for the Children of Schoolroom-Shire, by M. L. Nesbitt, I didn’t realize how passionately my 2nd grader would tackle it. It is advanced for a 2nd grader (he reads at about a 6th grade level), but he really enjoyed reading it and found it humorous even though […]
With the purchase of a clear vinyl tablecloth – and the printing, cutting and taping of a few of National Geographic’s Tabletop Maps – we now enjoy extended geography lessons at the dinner table.

My apologies to those who follow on Facebook… But some things just have to be said more than once. Like that whole story about how I’m not a perfect mom… A mom that does NOT strive to win the gourmet-cook-of-the-year award. It is TRUE. FOR REAL. So… this week, I recount a few of my best BE […]
Homeschoolshare is one of our favorite places to find lapbook and unit studies for our homeschool. Check out this Ancient Rome Lapbook with Study Guide!
We’ve made a few simple updates to our Essentials student practice notebook, and… it’s working! I thought I’d share what we’re doing in case others may find it useful… (or muse that it’s taken me this long to figure out something so simple…) All of the reference master charts are in page protectors (for durability) […]
