Welcome April Moon Card and our Spring Reading Challenge

 The April Moon card from our shop can be purchased at: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/ofbeeandbearshop

Today we refreshed our minds on the various climates such as tropical, polar, and temperate. Barron grasped the different concepts quickly. When we think of polar climate we think of the North Pole and Antartica. When we think of the tropical climate we begin to think of Costa Rica, Jamacia, Columbia, and Paragray. When we think of Temperate climates we think of Canada and USA as well as the UK and Europe.  Burger King and Animal Plant have the best King JR toys for boys these past two months. They are so educational, resourceful, designed great I am truly an appreciative fan of these creations/collaborations. 

I came across this notion in a hotel room while Barron was an infant. https://www.momendeavors.com/diy-parent-child-communication-journal-prompts/ a Family safe place

Today Barron purchased a really unique game on his PS5 which is called "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader" we have decided this is an excellent educaional tool for us because as he interacts with the questions we can then pause the game and research the topics/questions posed to us. Perhaps this is a great way to renew an interest in learning and continue upon our journey in homeschooling. 


We decided we should complete a Spring reading challenge all done electronically since Dad has been travelling many times to the library for us, and we remember how adventerous that can be, so we came across a rather lovely author at Imagination Soup who has created a neat challenge downloadable for free at: https://imaginationsoup.net/reading-challenges-kids/ The author of this didn't create it to be entirely electronical accomplishmemt however we modified it for our needs and it was enjoyable.

We also found a cute little activity about creating a book trailer following these suggestions: https://imaginationsoup.net/how-to-make-your-own-book-trailer-kids/

and some great writing opportunities in the form of contests shared at: https://imaginationsoup.net/writing-contests-kids-ways-get-published/
