My Lil Startup (Review + Discount)

Families looking for a quick and easy way to teach their kids entrepreneurship without spending piles of time and money to get started can open-and-go with My Lil Startup ! I was hesitant at first. Are parents going to really spend five dollars on slime? The answer—absolutely. My kids actually SOLD OUT of slime. That's right. They sold out! So, yes, this slime essentially sells itself and I give all of the credit to the marketing. 75% of the Marketing Is Taken Care Of 1. The SLIME SALE tablecloth draws customers in. They know exactly what they are getting. The clear and concise signage bring them over. 2. The quaint packaging is uniform and consistent. The customers' eyes are drawn to the variety of slime options, not varying sizes or containers. Labels are already on the containers—your child just fills them in with creative names for each type of slime they create.  3. Marketing copy (text for your kids to read or memorize) is provided for your kids to use to sell their slime...

Counting Sheep without Falling Asleep

  Living on a homestead has its perks—silence is not one of them. Although we haven't had sheep yet, we have had our share of goats—and they always liked to let us know they were around! Farm noises take some getting used to, but they are worth it. We did visit some friends with sheep recently, and though the sheep are not quiet, they are pleasant—especially during lambing season!  As homeschoolers, how can you incorporate homesteading, farming, and traditional skills into your homeschool when you do not have a homestead?  CREATE YOUR OWN UNIT STUDY! Creating your own unit study does not have to be as intimidating as it may sound—and it provides a hands-on educational experience. Choose a topic you want your children to know more about, then find 3–5 creative ways to introduce or reinforce it. Consider using any of the following: Themed Board Games Recipes Video Playlists Field Trip Lapbook Diorama  Collage Copywork Picture Books Counting Sheep without Falling A...

Using Comics in Your Homeschool (A Timberdoodle Review)

The 4th Grade Timberdoodle Kit continues to gain momentum as my son works through it. The beginning stages of the homeschool year are crucial when it comes to igniting a passion for learning, but how does this happen with a struggling reader?  Graphic novels (comic books) have been working surprisingly well when it comes to encouraging independent reading—even with history, generally a topic that can be met with resistance.  The  Disasters in History 8-Book Compilation  is a book that can be read anytime, anywhere, by a child of almost any reading level.  This book is divided into two sections: Part One: Exploration and Space Disasters The Donner Party Shackleton and the Lost Antarctic Expedition The Apollo 13 Mission The Challenger Explosion Part Two: Fire and Wartime Disasters The Great Chicago Fire of 1871 The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire The Hindenburg Disaster The Attack on Pearl Harbor Teaching about historical disasters needs to be handled with care—...

Should Counseling Be Controlled?

True North Legal  filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of Christian Counselors Freedom Alliance (CCFA) challenging a Minnesota law that punishes counselors for counseling-room speech that helps minor clients struggling with gender confusion embrace his or her sex.   The Minnesota law, enacted in 2023, expressly allows a licensed counselor to affirm and encourage a young person’s same-sex attraction or rejection of their sex but forbids the very same counselor from helping that same child pursue the opposite goals—reducing unwanted same-sex attraction or living in alignment with their sex. To avoid the law’s steep penalties, which can include loss of their professional licensure, CCFA members have no choice but to censor themselves in the counseling room . “Minnesota’s law banning so-called conversion therapy is a farce that forces Christian counselors to check their deeply held religious beliefs at the counseling room door and withhold much-needed help from children struggling wi...
