nature discovery basket giveaway

28 bloggers are participating in this year’s iHomeschool Network Back-to-Homeschool Gift Basket Giveaway. We want to help you start the school year with a smile on your face!

One of my family’s favorite things to do is explore the nature that is right around us. I am giving away a Nature Discovery Basket that contains all you need to start nature study right in your own backyard.

The Contents:

one small square backyard

One Small Square: Backyard – Use your senses to explore one small square at a time. This is one of our favorite series!

hands-on ecology

Hands-On Ecology – Creating a family ecology toolkit and mini ecosystems are among the many activities in this book.

port a bug

Pop-Up Port-a-Bug – This portable habitat lets you get a closer look at little critters.

waterproof bible

Waterproof New Testament (NIV) – Study scripture in the midst of His creation with a Bible from Bardin & Marsee Publishing that can brave the elements. (I am including a camo book cover for those explorers who might not enjoy pink. 😉 )

ultimate naturalist's library

Ultimate Naturalist’s Library Membership – I’m sure most of you are familiar with the Handbook of Nature Study’s Outdoor Challenges, and will share my excitement over this!

I’m also including some handy-dandy tools for your one small square:

  • flashlight
  • brush
  • twine
  • compass clip
  • specimen containers
  • travel bag (cuz the basket stays here 🙂 )

I will choose a winner on Friday, August 8th.

Month by Month Creative Planner

I’ve updated my monthly planning notes for the 2014-15 school year. I use these pages as a creative brain dump – a place to jot down seasonal notes, crafts, field trip ideas, and our Funschool theme of the week. My plan is to gather my favorite Frixon erasable gel pens, curl up in a comfy chair, and spend some time searching through my seasonal Pinterest boards. Download your 12-page freebie below and start planning the fun!

Through the Year with Pinterest

Pinterest is my #1 stop for seasonal school planning.

Using my creative planner, I like to schedule a couple of fun activities for us to do each week. If you need some fresh ideas, I have multiple season & holiday boards.

*Note: those of you viewing this in a reader or email might have to click through to view the board previews.

Take a look!
