Please download it and enjoy with your family! The original post remains the same except where noted. My children and I are keeping it simple this Christmas Season. We are …
This post was originally published in April 2014! We still study seeds almost every year because the warmth of spring begs us to do so. ❤ I’ve updated this post and the Seed Writing Activities with fresh fonts, page layouts, and a big update to the How a Seed Sprouts Booklet. The weather is finally …
Hello Friends! Long time no see! Since I’ve been MIA for quite some time now, I wanted to give an update. I’ve received numerous emails asking if we’re okay, and unfortunately I haven’t been able to personally respond to all of them. The short version is we’ve moved! I have lots of messy house pictures …
It won’t be long until the 2018 Winter Olympics is here! From February 9 – February 25, 2018, we can enjoy another fascinating round of Winter Olympic Games in PyeongChang, South Korea! To get us ready, I’ve compiled a fun list of resources, printables, and other fun things to help us in our unit study. Note …
Before our school year started, I knew it was going to be a bit of a trying year for me. We started school in July as we usually do, and I had just found out I was pregnant with our #5. Morning (all day) sickness and I were not friends at this point. While we …

Disclosure: I received a free copy of Tapestry of Grace Primer to review and was compensated for my time. The opinions in this post are based on my own experience using this curriculum with my children. Please see my disclosure policy for more details. For the past 5 years, my children and I have …
Through the years, I’ve worked hard to encourage my children to use their imaginations. I have some children who are extremely creative, and others who are more gifted in other areas. But regardless of how creative my children are, I’ve provided them with opportunity after opportunity to use the magnificent creative brains that God gave …
Thankfully with having 4 children, I realized early on that imaginative play has huge benefits. While I create a boatload of worksheets and printable activities for us to use in our homeschool, they never trump pretend play. Imaginative play is a priority in our home. For many years, I felt like I wasn’t disciplined enough …
Do your kiddos struggle with going to sleep? Out of my 4 children, I have 3 that struggle almost nightly with trying to go to sleep. As their homeschool mama who has been with them all day, I need them (oh so desperately!) to be in bed by 8:15 or 8:30. My own introverted need …
Merry Christmas, My Dear Friends! I am taking the rest of this week off to spend time with my favorite people and celebrate the Birth of Christ, so things will be quiet here for a few days. I’ll be back just as soon as Christmas is over, though! I have some fabulous things planned for …
