Links I use… For those of you who want to see
Eli's hockey schedule (mom), Look at the lake we live next to. Our friends across
the street have a webcam in their backyard. It updates about every
half hour. Great tea at haiTea.com: Eli's school- University of Hartford Magnet School Emmett's school- Renbrook School Check out things before you forward
them!! this is fun to do- try to stump the website.. you
think of either a dictator or a charactor on a sitcom and answer
yes or no questions about the person. Usually the computer guesses
it. Worth going to at least once and trying to stump it. You may
find it's addicting. (I started with Nicholas Bradford from Eight
is enough, and went from there.... so far only stumped it once) Where in the world? Condé Nast has a site that
has a contest every month with a new location. You get a photo of
the location and clues, which can help you figure it out. I have
found it helpful to hunt for information on Google
for finding out more about the location. This is definitely a fun
and challenging change of pace that will broaden your horizons. go here every day to donate for
good causes just by clicking your mouse: The Not So Big House is a wonderful
concept. Sarah Susanka has written several books detailing the theories
behind it and ways to implement her ideas. Read about the adventures of some kids I lived with
years ago. Three of the Jackson kids went on an amazing adventure
back in 1998.(They won a grant from Outside Magazine to go on it!)
I lived with the family for 2 summers when they were very small.
(Their dad and I both worked at Camp Four Winds together) The family
lives in Maine on a small remote island off the coast. The kids
have been homeschooled there, yet have had experiences that have
led them farther and wider than most with the more typical resources
that I know. Very cool kids, good roots, good wings.... great parents. Hunt for recipes….. (reading
the reviews can be really helpful) fun little games (you have to wait
for them to load(if you have dial up), but it's worth it): Check out Eli's book recommendations from
when he was younger (early 6 and under) Get a free ticket to the circus if you register during
your child's first year. (It's actually a voucher to be exchanged
whenever you want ) |
