Poppins Book Nook: At the Seashore

June 30, 2014 By: amyswandering2 Comments

At the Seashore

It is time once again for Poppins Book Nook. This month’s theme is: The Great Outdoors Feel free to join in the fun with the linky & giveaway at the end!

Since moving near the beach last year, we have spent considerable time at the seashore. We’ve seen sea turtle nesting spots, a giant (but, sadly, dead) sea turtle, crabs, pelicans, jellyfish, and a rainbow of seashells. There is always something new to explore!

One of my favorite outdoors series is One Small Square. I love them so much that I hope to own the whole collection someday! We are focusing on the Seashore book.

We are having fun with our Art at the Beach  lessons. They are fun for all ages and the lessons will keep us busy through the summer.

It’s education-in-disguise as we try to find out as much as we can about our new surroundings. Enjoy these free seashore resources!

Summer Is the Time to Save on Homeschool Curriculum

June 25, 2014 By: amyswanderingcomment

happy-sunshine

It’s that time of year, when the school supplies begin showing up in stores and curriculum companies start the sales. There are some big deals to be found right now! I will be sharing as many sales as I can find because I know how important it is for many homeschool families to save every penny possible.

I will add all of the sale posts to my far-right sidebar to make it easy to find them. (This seems like a good idea in theory. We’ll see how it really plays out. 🙂 ) I will also tag all of the posts with homeschool sales.

A few of the upcoming sale posts will contain my affiliate links. I only promote products that I believe in and trust. There is no additional cost to you, and your purchase helps maintain this website. Thank you for any shopping you do through my links!
