Summer Nature Related Bible Memory Verses
Each week I incorporate Bible memory work into our homeschool. This year I thought it would be fun to select nature related verses that go with what we are studying in our nature curriculum. So I spent several hours brainstorming and looking up verses for every single week’s topic! Some correspond more loosely than others, but I tried to tie each into our theme in some way. We are using Exploring Nature with Children for our homeschool nature study curriculum. As I’ve mentioned before, it’s a great curriculum for studying nature with children! Now available as a set of beautiful posters, copywork, and cards for the complete year! This is a…

Autumn Tree Q-Tip Painting – Free Printable Craft Activity for Kids
I put this autumn tree poem printable together last year when we were homeschooling for Kindergarten, and I think I enjoyed it as much as my girls did. There is just something really calming about painting Fall leaves like this. This would be a great Fall craft activity for preschool, kindergarten, or first grade. And it fits perfectly with our Autumn Tree nature study theme this week! I printed the page on cardstock and then glued it to a piece of construction paper. Then we just dotted our papers with paint to represent the Fall leaves. The best part about this craft activity is that it also works on those…

Autumn Nature Study Bible Memory Verses
Each week I incorporate Bible memory work into our homeschool. We practice every day until it is memorized. It’s more challenging for my 7 year old, who has Down syndrome, because her auditory processing (short-term memory) is not as strong. This means I often have to repeat sections of the verse, sometimes just one or two words at a time, often many times. It can be tedious, but I believe it is so important that we hide God’s word in our hearts. Her long term memory is quite good, and she is so proud of the accomplishment when she has it memorized. I don’t stress out if there’s a verse…

Handprint Owl Kid Craft and Free Printable
This week in our homeschool we have been learning about owls. I made a really fun owl themed snack and was thinking I could do something similar as a printable. My girls are in first grade this year, but I think this would be a simple and cute toddler craft, preschool craft, or kindergarten craft. Actually, I think it would be ideal as a craft for toddlers or preschoolers because their hands are smaller. I was pretty surprised to see how big my daughters’ hands have gotten this year! (And yet they are still tiny compared to my teen! Where do the years go?!) It was my husband’s birthday last…
