Holiday Homeschooling
Homeschooling during the holidays is one of my favorite times. There are so many free activities available online and in our community that I don’t have to do too much but wake up and see what the world gives us to learn. This month we are focused on learning a few christmas songs - Rudolph, Jingle Bells and Santa Claus is Coming to Town. We’ll also be baking a lot and learning about measuring and cooking. December is my favorite month to teach about cooking, ingredients, measuring etc…I also use December to teach my kids about giving. We do either Operation Shoebox or choose an angel from the tree and buy presents for a child. This year my son is working on doing a care package for the soldiers, and he’s really enjoying that. Next year I’ll focus more on other holidays celebrated this time of year, but she’s still too young to grasp the concept of other religions/holidays this time of year.
Don’t forget about the cookie contest going on over at my other blog. There’s only one entrant right now, so let’s get some competition going. This is the last week to submit a recipe for a $10 Walmart gift card. Click Here To Enter
