Carlito C. Caterpillar’s Math House Games is a set of large, durable activity cards on an o-ring for easy of use. The card set features 20 steps to help kids learn math in a fun, hands-on way. While these cards are labeled as math games, they are actually math activities. There are 2 activities for each step of the program. The steps are broken down into 3 different stages which get progressively more difficult. It’s an immersion program, so kids learn by physically doing the math concepts being presented.

I’ve been having fun playing around with a new digital scrapbooking program. (Review and giveaway should be posted this week.) I started looking through the photos that I took this past weekend when we went horseback riding and came across this photo of Munchkin and Daddy. I knew that I wanted to do something with it. I didn’t want to play with it too much, so I just went with a simple picture. With so much going on in our lives right now, this verse is a good reminder that God is in control of it all. I’m grateful that…

Out on the Range

Last weekend was a fun long weekend for us which is why I missed a few days of posting. Grandma and Grandpa came to Arizona for business, so we headed over to spend some time with them. Grandpa decided that it would be fun for us all to go horseback riding while they were here. Due to the fact that it’s still rather warm here, we had to get up early in the morning, but we all agreed that it was worth it. It was nice that we avoided the thunderstorms that took place during our last horseback riding adventure.…
Literature Notebooking Pages
Posted in Homeschooling
Recently, we received Excellence in Literature – Introduction to Literature to review as part of the TOS Crew. (That review will be coming at the end of October.) Since we’re really into using notebooking pages for our studies right now, I decided to create some literature notebooking pages to go with the study. Some of the pages feature the literature that we’ll be reading during the course of this study while most of the pages are generic pages which use mainly images of antique books. The Literature Notebooking Pages are now part of the Marine Corps Nomads Homeschool Resource Library.…
