A Little Bit Of This and a Little Bit Of That

I've never been one to color within the given lines.

And I don't teach within them either.

I've always chosen to take a customized approach to teaching. I love that with the opportunity of homeschooling Parker comes the opportunity of creating a made to fit curriculum.

Using a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

Here are some really great 'little bits' with a Montessori approach:

Studying certain states? This postcard book is an excellent learning activity to utilize those postcards your child sends away for.

Olivia LOVED the play silks at her music "camp" – a baby class at Jackson's music camp. I need to get some.

Tammy and Parker @ 1:07 pm

Parker and I are going to do a tutorial on how to dye your own playsilks, but if you'd rather just by already made silks here are some great websites:
