September 7, 2016 by Sarah Leave a Comment

These constellation activities are out of this world! BIG eye roll. But they will really add a twinkle to your little one’s eye. Maybe even make them feel like a star. Come on Mama, let’s rock it! (you know, like rocket?) Okay, I’m done with that now, I promise. We are doing a little learning…

An Invitation to Build Big

July 18, 2016 by Sarah 8 Comments

We have some absolutely lovely neighbours. Neighbours who were thrilled at the chance to swap firewood from their woods for (loads of) eggs from our lovely ladies. Goodness, is there anything my chickens can’t do? They can even keep us warm all winter long. That great big load of wood, ready to be chopped, had…

A Mapping Scavenger Hunt!

January 20, 2016 by Sarah 1 Comment

What a weekend! It was full to the brim, and full of snow too. So much so, in fact, that we wound up without internet for quite some time. Given that our phone, television, and pretty much any other electronic entertainment we have runs off internet it was kind of like Little House on the…

12 Field Trips that Could Change the World

August 11, 2015 by Sarah Leave a Comment
