Having Fun With Food Labels

  Since March is National Nutrition Month, it is the perfect time to incorporate a lesson or two on nutrition. No matter what ages your children are, there are ways to teach them about the foods and drinks they consume each day and why they matter. One fun way to do this is to make

Winter Nature Study

  I was first formally introduced to Nature Study when I read Karen Andreola’s book A Charlotte Mason Companion almost 17 years ago. The idea that children learned from the natural world around them was not new to me, but how to encourage and direct them in that pursuit was. If you want a good,

Christmas Car Games

  Christmas is almost here! I love this season of celebrating the birth of Christ. However, between all the shopping and visiting, it seems like we spend much of this month in the car. To help make our drives more enjoyable and full of Christmas cheer, we started playing Christmas themed car games. Whether you’re

Winter Break Bucket List

  Now that the cold weather and hot chocolate season are upon us, we often find it hard to get outside our warm house and be active. I realize that as much as we enjoy our cozy home, making memories outside of it is just as important as the moments we share inside. Thankfully, I

However, as a one-income family with five (soon to be six) people, paying for some of those trips can really be a stretch. Zoo memberships, cave explorations, and much more, sound like

Fall Nature Study: Saving Seeds

  Each spring, my children and I start seeds for nature study. Eventually, we transplant them to the garden, care for the plants and harvest the fruit. A few years ago, we decided to allow the process to come full circle by learning how to save the seeds, as well. There are a few different
