Download N Go Homeschool Unit Studies
I’ve never really purchased any unit study kits. Usually I hodge podge them together with items around the house. And I’ve never really lapbooked in the traditional sense. Usually we journal and color and cut and paste into a spiral notebook, but when I was given the opportunity to review Download N Go unit lapbook…
Yo Crunch! And I'm NOT Talking about the Captain!
Though I do love a good bowl of Captain Crunch cereal, preferably peanut butter or crunch berry, as of the last couple of years, my expanding self does not. It’s just not easy to get the weight off (when was it ever?) So I’m having to snack smart. That’s why when I was given the…
Barbie: The Ultimate Heroine
Before I had a little girl of my own, I vowed to keep her from those barely clothed Barbie Dolls. I had grown up playing with Barbie, the perfectly sculpted woman.

I Love My New Lunch Box!
When I decided to teach at my kids’ school, I knew IÂ wasn’t going to order the fast food lunches every time. I needed to get into the habit of packing my lunch. I barely have the time to pack my kids lunches but every since I got the CitizenPip lunch system (thanks to Qlubb.com)…
Disney on Ice Tour
It’s that time of year again, when Disney on Ice comes to our state fair. Fair time is always a fun and busy time of year and I always tell myself “this year I’m taking the kids to Disney on Ice.” Over the years we only made it twice. Once as a family to see…
Stretch for Life
Lori Walter, a Licensed Massage Therapist and Stretch Instructor, developed the Stretch for Life routine over a thirteen years period. The DVD is designed to help the average person or athlete “heal and repair their structural integrity.” I found this DVD very simple to use and liked the fact they used average people and not…
I Need a Vacation
This month has been crazy, and in another post I’ll go into a little more detail about all the exciting stuff that happened this summer, but for starters my daughter and I just returned from an overnight trip to Charlotte to tape a show for the Raggs PBS children’s show. It was fun and furious…
