Bible: God Made Us Special
God has purposely made this world interesting and fun, colorful and attractive. When He made us, He made us different and special. He has not only made us different on the outside, but also on the inside. As a fun activity, we turned the lights off and shone a flashlight at K’s head as he was standing sideways. We could see his profile on the wall. I taped this black construction paper on the wall and traced his profile. Then we cut it out. This is what it looked like. 🙂
Materials needed:
– a dark room
– a flashlight
– a black sheet of construction paper
– a pencil or white colored pencil
– a pair of scissors

Relaxation and Detoxification for Mom
For Christmas, my mother-in-law gave me one of the best gifts I could receive: an Amazon gift card! With it, I decided to purchase these two blocks of Himalayan Salt. You put them in the oven for about 10 minutes and then put your feet on top of them to detox. Make sure it’s not too hot or too cool. I really enjoy it and find it relaxing.

Classical Conversations Math: Skip Counting
|
I printed out 2 copies of the templates for skip counting numbers 1-15.
Then, I laminated all of them and cut 1 copy of each into individual
sheets and the other copy I cut the numbers and title separately.
|
|
I cut a bright blue sheet in half and placed one half on either side of the card.
On the back of each card, I taped an envelope. Inside, I placed all of the
individual numbers as well as the title.
|
| Now, we are ready to start! First, take all of the individual numbers out of the envelope and place on the bright sheet on the left (all out of order). Second, practice placing all of the individual numbers over the matching numbers on the card. It is very important that this is done in order. Third, once done, move all of the individual numbers to the bright half sheet on the left again and flip the card over (so the student cannot see the numbers. Fourth, Take the title and place it on the top part of the bright half sheet on the right. Start placing the individual numbers in order. So first, you practice by being able to see the numbers and second, you test your memory and try to place all the numbers in the correct order without looking. |
I love my pantry!
Beauty! Confident Beauty!
