I can't wait to read more about how you homeschool since I am very new to the scene and could use a few friends going down the same oath right now. I added the books in your biblical portion to my shopping cart adn will be sure t purchase them soon. <br /><br />We do a lot of random acts of kindness type things that would work for your character building lessons. I'll get a list together for you.<br /><br />Also, we are in the middle of a Great American Post Card Swap right now with 49 other Moms, I highly recommend you do one too! You get a postcard a week from each of the states alphabetically for pretty much the whole year. Te kids love it because they get their own mail each week & I like it because it gives me a chance to talk to them about a new state each week. We have a US puzzle that we put together and then search for all the states we have post cards for. <br /><br />Next year, I plan to do some state trivia type stuff with them and a cook a meal typical of that area. <br /><br />All right, that's enough to bombard you with for now. Chat with you more soonStacy of KSWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12312309129805115365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5807705214226465989.post-35047823845630944882010-08-25T12:30:08.294-05:002010-08-25T12:30:08.294-05:00You are so organized Katie!

I'm also interested to know how you figured out which curriculum to use, where you go to browse through it all and decide, and how long the lessons are (what Emma does during that time?Ryan and Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06780073951241254072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5807705214226465989.post-45385060261244121102010-08-25T07:48:02.244-05:002010-08-25T07:48:02.244-05:00Thanks for posting this.
