“Mom, I’m not going to do my jobs this morning!” “I don’t want to brush my teeth!” “[Insert child’s name], I have told you FOUR times to pick up those toys before school starts!” Surely I am not the only homeschooling mother that has the occasional bad morning. Oh, you know the kind. Where children …
This week, we are having a big time reading Patricia Polacco’s The Bee Tree! (This post contains affiliate links.) Oh the marvelous bee conversations we’ve had! I have a whole post planned for the wonderful resources we’ve used, activities, and non-fiction books we’re reading. So make sure you’re signed up for my newsletter so you …
My 4-year-old daughter was playing with the the Orchestra Cards this morning and asked if there were any orchestra coloring pages that she could color. Well, no, there’s not. But if you give me a few minutes, there will be! I love it when my kiddos give me great ideas of printables and worksheets that …
In case you missed the previous post, I’m going to highlight the places I find the most deeply discounted books on sale for our homeschool. It’s important to me that our home is filled with high-quality books (in addition to library books), but we can’t afford to buy them at regular prices. So as I …
Long before homeschooling was ever on my radar, it was important to me for books to be a central part of our home. I have such wonderful memories of my own mama reading to me when I was little, and I wanted the same for my children. But books are expensive! Despite our limited budget, …
What is it about match cards that children love so much? My girls just adore them, which is why you see them so often here at Mama’s Learning Corner! (This post contains affiliate links.) Off and on throughout this school year, the kids and I have listened and read The Story of the Orchestra. My …
If you read homemaking/parenting/mama blogs at all, you know that meal planning is a hot topic! Freezer cooking, crock pot cooking, and once-a-month shopping trips are discussed in great detail. Don’t you just love the resources available for a mama on the internet? It really is a vast sea of knowledge and experience. I adore …
We are enormous fans of chalk pastels here at the Hill House! I’ve written several times about how EASY they are for a mama to incorporate in her homeschool week. So I’m very happy to share with you that Hodgepodge is having a huge 50% off sale from April 13-15 on all chalk pastel ebooks! …
Today, we’re talking about Chapter 5 in our Seasons of a Mother’s Heart Book Study! Are you still hanging in there with me? We are in that part of a Bible study where the newness has worn off and people are ready to move on to the next thing. But don’t move on yet! There …
Hi Friends! This week in our Seasons of a Mother’s Heart study, we’ve changed seasons and we’re heading into Summer. Summer is considered a ‘season of response’, and as we see in Chapter, 4, our response involves building our homes. This idea of intentional mothering – and house building – is not a new concept …
There are several times during our homeschool year where I try to coordinate by topic. Depending on the holiday or season, we will have every subject point to the same theme – science, history, copywork, reading, and any other subject I can incorporate.
