I did this particular lapbook a bit differently. I actually put it all together ahead of time instead of Munchkin filling in the mini books and then assembling the lapbook. We’ll be using this as an activity book for Independence Day! We found this lapbook free online.

You can do this. You and your family can whittle down your waste to one trash can a month, saving money and greening up the planet in the process. Not only that, but everyone who registers by posting a comment will be entered to win a…
Munchkin’s bout with the chicken pox ended last week. She was glad to get through that as was I. We did a lot of reading during that time period.

This actually works in our favor as Munchkin is now reading longer books, so it takes a bit longer for her to get through them. Munchkin is happily attending VBS this…
