A Day With Dad

I worked all weekend so Leon held down the fort...so to speak. He took the kids fishing.









They only caught one fish.


Calvin named it "Bait".

Friday's Homeschool Feature - Bug Trap

My boys love bugs. They are fascinated by the tiny microscopic world bugs live in.



This is a mason jar buried at ground level.



We put a plastic lid over top to keep out rain.



We'll come back everyday to check and see what fell inside. Then we'll observe and release our creatures.



Join us for Friday's Homeschool Feature.

1. Share (ideas, adventures, and projects), review a product, or talk about why you homeschool.

2. Link me in your post. You can use the code for my banner if you like:

Checking on My Plant Babies

They are coming along very nicely. I'm now "hardening" them off. I'm so excited about this year's garden!



You see the 4 pots with no plants? One of my boys (who will remains nameless but starts with "J" and ends with "h") knocked over our babies and these 4 pots did not survive. So we started them over. This time we planted herbs.


I've got my buckets ready to receive my babies. The compost is almost ready to use.
