Horse chestnuts can be used for laundry! I found out last year when we discovered a tree with many nuts on the ground. Here is a
link that tells how to utilize them as laundry soap.
Can you see 4 kittens by the barn door?
Every Thursday we have a homeschool co-op for a few hours. I teach a class on geography through children's literature to 4-8 year olds currently. We looked at the map of Russia in the wonderfully illustrated book called
Maps by Mizielinska, made borscht and read
The Firebird. I used beets from our garden. Two girls excitedly told me the potatoes and cabbage they brought were from their garden. Next, we'll study China, then Japan.
I see three cats, but I trust you. :) Your boys are cuties.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I would like to be in your class... looking at maps, listening to music, eating homemade borscht made from homegrown vegetables!
