- A seasonal round-up (at the beginning of the month)
- A guest post featuring crafts, activities, tips, snack ideas or other early childhood topics. (toward the end of the month)
- Posts where I share what I have been up to with my preschoolers and/or early elementary children.
Each week, I will host a link up, where you can share either what you have been up to recently, or old posts that may go with the theme. Feel free to link up more than one post.
Each week I will continue to feature a couple of posts from those that have been linked up.
I hope you will continue to share your wonderful posts, and I hope you will find something new to try with your child.
Last month I posted that it was officially summer, and this month it is already time to be thinking about back to school. It just doesn't seem possible. I realize not everyone starts back to school at the same time, which is true for homeschool and public school alike. However, the summer is quickly sneaking away from us, so I thought it would be a good time to share some great back to school ideas. Conveniently, I am participating in the five day Back to Homeschool Blog Hop with the Schoolhouse Review Crew, and this round up just happens to fit the theme wonderfully. So, I invite you to pull up a chair and take a look at these great ideas I have pulled together for you.
