February 19, 2019 by Sarah 10 Comments

A little while ago I wrote a post on seed germination for kids.  In that post, I told you I would do a follow up post on the seed activities for kids we did as the seeds were growing, and about the results of which seeds grew fastest (or grew at all!)  Wonderful news!  You…

January 10, 2019 by Sarah 2 Comments

I thought I would share something a little bit different than I usually do with you today. But I know most of you are home with young children, and in that stage of life I thought you might also be trying to pinch a few pennies, as we are. So today I wanted to share…
