Five Fall Table Decorations Kids Can Make!

October 22, 2012 By Erica Deuel 3 Comments

Tonight, we had a fall table decorated totally by my kids.  They loved putting this display together.  All day they excitedly talked about how we were going to eat dinner "by candlelight". There are five decorations on this table, and they are so quick and easy.  I promise!  I will walk you through each one. 1.  Walk through your backyard and pick some berries or branches to put in a vase for the centerpiece.  The natural outdoor elements will make it feel rustic and fall.  We put Continue Reading

Apple Picking

October 10, 2012 By Erica Deuel Leave a Comment

On Monday, we went on a big field trip.  The kids and I went to Ellijay, Georgia (about 1 1/2 hours away) and made a day of apple picking with our sweet neighbors.  It was a complete blast! Reagan was so young last year that she didn't really get to enjoy the experience.  It was fun watching her tug on apples this year and shrill with delight when she got one.  Once she had her apple, she wanted to sit and eat it.  She loves her stroller "ride".  Which I didn't mind so much Continue Reading

Kindergarten Tip: Story Dictation

October 9, 2012 By Erica Deuel 7 Comments

Today, I have a quick homeschool tip for you.  A simple story dictation (your child makes up a story aloud for you) can encourage so many wonderful things in your young child/student.  I got this idea from my mom, and it has become one of the best parts of our school days. I got a small journal and have dedicated it to Caleb's stories.  Everyday he tells me a story of his own creation, and I write it down.  Sometimes I am scrambling to keep up.  His stories tend to ramble excitedly from Continue Reading

Painting: Tips for letting young kids paint!

September 23, 2012 By Erica Deuel 9 Comments

This week we did LOTS of fun things.  We got to have two play dates, a park outing with their grandma, and even a zoo visit with friends.  We only had one day this week where we didn't have anything on the calendar, and it just so happened to be the "rainy" day.  We loved it! In our school days, we have been talking about fall and the changes that come with this season.  Having a rainy day at home, was the perfect time to paint our ceramic pumpkins! They did an awesome job, and I Continue Reading

DIY Wood School Calendar

September 15, 2012 By Erica Deuel 5 Comments

In preparation for starting to homeschool, we made a school calendar.  It is one of my favorite things in the house now! We live in a fun 60+ year-old ranch.  Although we love our house, we don't have any "extra" rooms.  Our school room is right in the middle of our living room.  I am so excited to be homeschooling, but I couldn't give up my need to have a fun decor in this central room.  I decided to make a wood calendar rather than one of the laminated poster calendars found in most Continue Reading
