My children adore match games – from preschool all the way up to my first grader! Besides the fact that they’re just plain fun, matching games have so much educational benefit. They are a frequent flyer during our homeschool week. Note that this post was originally published in July 2012. I would say it is …
Teaching Latin at home doesn’t have to be overwhelming! In our classical homeschool, I’ve used Prima Latina with all my children over the years—starting with my oldest over a decade ago. Whether you’re brand new to Latin or just need structure for your homeschool routine, I’m sharing exactly how to teach Prima Latina in your …
When I share children’s books with learning ideas, they are often of the fiction or non-fiction variety. However today, I have a wonderful reference or resource-type book to share with you. Non-fiction, fiction, short stories, chapter books, poetry…they all are important to read! Today’s book, Daily Life at the Time of Jesus, is a non-fiction …

If you and your kids haven’t discovered Wild About Books yet, you’re in for a treat! This beloved children’s book by Judy Sierra (illustrated by Marc Brown) is filled with humor, rhyme, and a zoo full of animals who can’t get enough of reading.

It has been quite awhile since I published a set of Bible coloring pages – almost a year in fact! These types of purposeful coloring pages are a great fit if you are a Sunday School teacher, work in a Christian classroom, or want to use these pages in your own homeschool. They clearly are …
I have another fascinating book to share with you today: Sea Clocks: The Story of Longitude. For many years, my children and I used the Tapestry of Grace curriculum.
