Books about Birds for Preschool

May 4, 2017 By Julie 5 Comments

  Inside you’ll find: Charlotte Mason inspired living books about birds for kids.    The first official year of the Charlotte Mason inspired “Ambleside Online” has students studying birds. At first, I thought that would be really dull. I mean, all birds are practically the same right? Oh my, how wrong I’ve been. My oldest has […]

Books about Knights and Castles for Preschoolers

September 23, 2016 By Julie 2 Comments

   Inside you’ll find: The very best books about knights for preschoolers (or kindergarteners). They’re long standing favorites!  Having boys, I knew we would eventually have to do a unit on knights and the middle ages. I thought that my barely three-year old was too young. But he learned about dragons recently and being a knight […]

A Homeschool Preschool Curriculum where Nature is the Classroom

April 13, 2015 By Julie 19 Comments

Preschool is a magical time for kids. The world is opening up to them and they just can’t seem to learn enough. As a homeschooler, I want to instill a love of learning in my kids that stays with them their whole lives.  I’m delighted to have found a curriculum that meets so many of […]

Books about Love for Preschoolers

February 4, 2015 By Julie 2 Comments

I got a little lazy this month and never actually picked a theme for our preschool. So by default, we’re reading tons of books about love while doing some awesome sauce Valentine’s learning activities. While there are tons of amazing children’s books about love, these have been our favorite this month. (I’m sure I’ll wake […]

What We Hope to Accomplish by Homeschooling: Setting Our Goals Before We’ve Even Begun

January 2, 2015 By Julie 9 Comments

Homeschooling has always been the norm to me. I was homeschooled from the very beginning of my education, WAY before it was cool and popular. I grew up explaining to my peers the values and benefits of a home education and had plenty of compelling reasons and persuasive statistics. (And there are MANY!) I’ve long […]

Build a Model Spaceship Craft

November 29, 2014 By Julie 2 Comments

  We love simple crafts around here. The first activity we did as part of our astronaut unit was this model spaceship craft. It took less than five minutes, but caused my son’s jaw to hang open in wonder.  This post contains affiliate links that help support my family. Read more about that here. It […]

Astronaut Pretend Play

October 31, 2014 By Julie 1 Comment

We have been having so much fun learning about astronauts lately (check out our favorite books), that when the month was out, we just kept going with our space exploration. Lumpy (1.5 yrs) has even started saying “bwast offffff!” No day is complete without imagining ourselves in space.  Occasionally, I’ve tried to add some extra […]

Books about Astronauts

October 22, 2014 By Julie Leave a Comment

After completing our unit on different careers, I had a better idea of what my son was interested in learning about next: Astronauts. So off we went to the library to find books about astronauts. Here are our favorites. Astronauts and Other Space Heroes by Sarah Thomson was full of so much information about individual astronauts […]
