This week my children and I are studying fruits and vegetables – how they grow, the difference between a fruit and a vegetable, why we need to eat them, how our bodies use them, and more! I’ve had a lot of fun putting this fruits and vegetables unit study together, and I’d love to share …
Spring is the perfect time to study frogs, don’t you think? There’s something about spring and the newness it brings that makes my kiddos want to learn about all kind of animals – frogs included! Next week, we’re doing a quick unit study on frogs, which fits beautifully with learning about Pond Life. My children …
Good morning, Friends! I am so excited to share today’s packet with you! Several years ago, I published a Down at the Pond Packet for Kindergarten and First Grade. It was the first themed Kindergarten and First Grade packet that I created, so it’s a bit…dated. 😉 Since my girls and I are reading about …
My children have always loved comparing and contrasting. Often, we’ll choose two items, people, or places to compare and map out our data on our big 8-foot white board.

Over the years, we’ve acquired several books that focus on the Easter season and they have become our favorites!

Over the years, I’ve found several fun learning activities that my little girls (ages 6 1/2 and 5) just adore. …
When I first started homeschooling my oldest child in Kindergarten, I didn’t give much thought to formal handwriting. Sure, I got a handwriting book for practice, but I didn’t realize it was something that had to be taught. Keep in mind that I was a Registered Nurse prior to homeschooling my children – not a school …
It has been a mighty long time since I published a math worksheet that focused on reading a graph. Years, in fact! I have a first grader that is just learning about bar graphs, so this spring-themed bar graph practice will be just perfect for her. No, it’s not yet spring here in North Carolina, …
There are several timeless topics that my children and I study each year. These mainstay topics seem to ebb and flow as we move through the seasons in our homeschool. As we move away from harsh winter weather and into the newness of Spring, my children and I will once again study about birds. We …
