I did a slightly quicker version of this lantern craft in Children’s Church earlier this month. This is a great craft to go with a “Thy Word is a Lamp Unto My Feet” lesson in church or a study on Florence Nightingale who was called the “Lady of the Lamp”. It would also be a […]

For the most part, home educators could replicate most of the aspects of a typical classroom. We usually don’t want to, but we have that option. Even being in a room with similar-aged peers, we have co-ops, church groups, sports teams, etc. *Affiliate Links Included. I might make a small commission off of purchases through […]
: I love this idea because it is simple, inexpensive, and practical. Starting a picture file is incredibly easy. You simply collect pictures from magazines, the internet, newspapers, catalogs,… everywhere. I mounted most of mine onto construction paper.

Making dry erase erasers using pom poms is so easy. I wish I had started doing this years ago. This would be wonderful for doing work in the car or away from home. This would be fabulous for a game of tic-tac-toe or hangman on a portable wipe-off board. What a simple homeschool hack! […]
We actually start our school year early. We will be starting on July 13th this year. This gives us the opportunity to take a nice, long Christmas break which is so nice because December is just too busy to really focus on school. July, on the other hand, is just too hot to do much […]

I’ll show you exactly what I mean. *Affiliate Links Included for your convenience. I may receive a commission […]
