Great FREE PRINTABLE PACKS
I love homeschooling Parker. My philosophy of teaching includes a lot of hands on learning time. I don’t purchase a curriculum, but rather put together my own each year which includes some pretty great Free Printable Packs that cover all kinds of subjects and holidays.
First up is a Free Nativity PreK-K Printable Pack that is available for a limited time. If you’ll notice on the left side of Meet Penny.com she offers up all kinds of educational helps. As soon as I finish this post I plan on downloading this! I love how Meet Penny says that this is a gift to us AND Jesus.
Royal Baloo has an ADORABLE Forgetful Santa Free Printable Pack. If you are using a Mac, make sure you have the latest version of Adobe downloaded. If you click on her Printables tab at the top of her blog, you’ll see an entire list of great printables for all age ranges! Sweet, eh?
I have more to share, but we are breaking in a new nurse today and Parker is giving the poor guy a real run for his money. I’m not sure if I should be appalled or a bit amused to know of yet another way that Parker is truly just another typical Hodson boy.
heh.
Looking for more ideas? You can always follow me and Parker on Pinterest!
Off to rescue today’s nurse!
PS: It takes a TON of time to create these printables. Please show a little love to their creators via a comment on their blog, sharing on Facebook, etc.
West Jet Christmas Miracle
I loved watching this and I may even have needed a few tissues to get me through. I hope you enjoy it as well! I think the elves had as much, if not more fun than the recipients! West Jet Christmas Miracle
Tamiflu, Puke and Fevers
It started when Reed told me Kenny was staying home from school because she had just puked. Awesome sauce. I can’t think of anything I love more than a day of praying everyone’s head winds up in the vicinity of the toilet when their guts come hurling up. But that’s not all the morning had… [Continue Reading]
Montessori Inspired Christmas Suncatcher
One of the best things about Christmas are the crafts I’ve made with my kids. Nothing fancy. Nothing expensive. Simple things that tend to make my heart sing when I uncover them from the Christmas boxes all these years later. Now I understand the importance of these kind of experiences beyond the memories. I recognize… [Continue Reading]
Popping The Question
I swore to myself that I’d never ask The Question. My ability to remain hopeful was stronger if I didn’t know. But after a particularly disappointing heart cath, well……I had to know. And so I found myself Popping The Question. The question where I ask how long a Brave Hero with disappointing cath results could… [Continue Reading]
The Flannel Shirt Tradition
My Dad has always loved him a flannel shirt. They wear like iron. Get softer the older they get. And allow you to keep that furnace on a lower setting during the winter. What’s not to love. I smiled when Rigel come dashing up from downstairs in HIS flannel shirt, knowing that Parker would also… [Continue Reading]
The Gift of a Birthday
Sunday we celebrated. Our entire family gathered around the littlest Hodson boy to share good wishes, eat cake and open gifts. Afterwards we did what we always do when we celebrate this Hero’s birthday; we watched his slide show from when he was sooooo tiny and we marveled at how far he’s come. It’s a… [Continue Reading]
