If you’re following along with my Learning to Simplify series, you know that I’ve been getting up earlier than usual over the past month. Actually, today marks my 4th week of getting up early, but who’s counting?! Getting up early before the rest of the house has worked well for me in this seasons of …
At the beginning of the school year, I budget quite a bit of our homeschool money for crafts, markers, crayons, and art supplies. My children know that they are welcome to any of those supplies at any time (as long as they clean up when they’re finished!). I’ve noticed that my little girls – ages …
Yesterday, I continued writing in my Learning to Live the Simple Life series. I didn’t intend to write two posts on how I keep my family from being overscheduled, but it exploded into an enormous topic! Make sure you read why it’s so important for my family to keep our daily schedule from getting out …
I’m so glad you’re following along with me in my mission to make my life more simple. We’re heading into our last week of school here at the Hill House, and this is always a productive time for me to reflect on what has worked this past year and what has not. This week, I’m …
The Beatitudes – Matthew 5 – are some of my favorite verses to read in the New Testament. I read them often! In fact, I’m looking for a Bible Study that my kiddos I can do to really learn those verses and what Jesus was saying to us as believers. In the meantime, my kiddos …
I am on a mission to make my life more simple – our homeschool, our schedule, my WAHM life, keeping my home. And today I’m starting out with one of the biggies: simplifying our meals, snacks, and grocery shopping. As a homeschool mama, some days I feel like I spend all day in the kitchen. …
I’ve been thinking a lot about our homeschool life the last few days and weeks. The end of the year always brings a time of reflection, trying to determine what was successful and what wasn’t so hot. As I think back over our days and months of this school year, there’s one theme that is …
“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 …
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 …
