Handwriting Practice Fun Activities

I still have my children hand-write their school work. They use pencil and paper every day for math, writing, language arts and Bible study. Handwriting practice is not old fashioned.

I have quite a few activities that are fun for kids to get … [Read more...]

Teaching Kids to Love Writing + Homeschool Writing Curriculum Tools

Two of my children are natural writers. They write comic books and plays. My 10 year old daughter has even written a few songs. Those piano lessons are paying off!

Balancing 2 toddlers while magically creating time to focus on my older two children was a challenge to say the least. (Brings out super woman cape from the closet…) The juggling act of homeschooling multiple children in multiple learning levels is-to be blunt- … [Read more...]

Instilling the Love of Learning by Reading
