I can’t believe that I haven’t posted since the last carnival post!
Well, the new carnival is up at The Common Room. Drop in and check out what other homeschool bloggers are up to.
I just noticed that have to update my side bar because Baby Smurf just turned 3 yesterday! We are having a party this weekend with four of his little friends. This will be his first time having a bunch of same-aged friends over.
This week, we are trying to ease into the school routine with reading and art. I started with those two subjects because they can be passed off as fun and not work. I am hoping to rid them of their public school trauma and show them that all subjects can be fun and not work. We’ll see how that goes.
I have learned that in our house “school” is a dirty word. If I say, “Let’s do school,” the boys groan, or worse. But, if I say, “Let’s do a science experiment,” they are excited. I wonder how many other kids learn to dread that word after a bad experience at school.
My kids have never been in school and groan when I say ‘time for school’. Oh well. I love your blog. I am also a ‘crafty mama’ and love all crafts and homeschooling my kids.
Hmmm…I might have to re-think my theory that the school is what made them hate that word!
Thanks for visiting!
