Grow Your Own Avocado Tree (Avoseedo Review)

I have one window in my home that gets decent light. I mean, enough light to place plants in and they will actually grow. All the other windows on any other side of the house are just a lost cause. But the good side, the best side, has one perfectly placed window.

We sure get our mileage out of it. Last time I checked, we had eleven plants absorbing the sun's rays through it each and every day. Yes, eleven. Some hanging, several on the window sill and some on a table we slid as close as we could to maximize our efforts. Soon to join the club is this little guy.

Yes, that is an avocado seed. And I am working on sprouting it right now. Actually, my kids are. I had my Avoseedo sprouting kit sitting on the counter next to some avocados that were in the process of ripening. Once they were ripened, my kids whipped up some guacamole. I heard them slicing and dicing in the kitchen and when I came back in I saw a bowl of water on the counter with a peeled avocado seed resting in it.

They said they hoped I didn't mind! They read the instructions and did exactly what it said. I was impressed. I didn't give them a hard time about it since I know they are excited to see this seed grow into a tree. We've tried it before but to no avail. Of course, we didn't peel the seed nor did we have an Avoseedo at the time either!

AvoSeedo is an avocado tree germinator with a bowl that makes it easy for everyone to grow their own plant at home from a simple avocado pit.

Have you ever tried to sprout an avocado seed before? It is not easy. Let me tell you of the times we have had seed after seed sitting around our house. Sitting in water. Waiting for germination. I always hated throwing the seed out but when the water would get all full of mildew, I was done. I would throw it away and hope for the best the next time around.

Now I don't need to sit around with my fingers crossed. The Avoseedo has the process down to a science.

The perks?

- It is easy to use for all ages, (my nine and ten year kids figured it out!)

- The clever AvoSeedo bowl design keeps the avocado pit immersed in just the right amount of water to grow effectively

-Made for durability from recyclable, non-toxic materials

-Reusable for other vegetables like lettuce, celery, carrot tops!

Original 13 Colonies Fact Cards (Free Printable)

These Thirteen Colonies Fact Cards were created for my kids as we studied early American history. What a pivotal time in our history! Puritans seeking religious freedom, adventurers setting out for a new land, and those in debt hoping for a fresh start—a new life. From the first colony in Virginia, until all thirteen stars on the first American flag were represented, these cards are a perfect review for your homeschoolers. Use them to drill the first thirteen colonies so your child can recite them with ease, and have them dictate the information on the cards to help them remember a small fact about each colony. Feel free to print these out and have your children write facts that they learn about each colony on the back. Go ahead and laminate them, too! Simply right-click, save, and print to use this resource in your homeschool as you study about the original thirteen colonies in America. Use the facts for dictation, copy work, or discussion in your home. Disclaimer: All co...

The Pencil Grip Inc. {Review}

We have found what we have been looking for in The Pencil Grip Inc .'s 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers . These markers are the perfect fit for a homeschooling family such as ours. I am thrilled to tell you about our experience with them! Normally, I do not have a favorable impression of markers for several reasons. For one, as a kid, I remember markers having such a strong smell that it would give me a headache. I know some kids enjoyed the scents but it certainly was not for me. And to be honest, if I had markers like that in my house today, my kids would probably stick them up their nose or something. Another reason I have a distaste for markers is the drying out factor. As a parent of many children this is super frustrating. I finally teach the older ones to put the caps back on when they are done using their markers but then a younger one comes along and just doesn't understand. This then leads to the undue frustration of your child sitting down to...
