I have been slowly working with Caleb on doing little chores in the morning. His list is not nearly as long as the girls, but he does have a few chores that he is capable of! So, today, for the first time, I put up a chore chart for him! He was super excited when he woke up, to see his own chore chart beside the girls pages! He excitedly ran to do each chore and then come back to put the sticker on! I hope his excitement lingers for awhile! I put pictures on his chart instead of words, so ...

Buuuuuuut…I did a few things this week that didn’t cost me a whole lot and I just had to tell you about the sales I found! If you are redecorating and need a few things for your walls, you should head to Kohl’s. Most of their wall decor is 60% off. I got several things for less than $10, and there ...

Our bat lapbook
We finished putting together our bat lapbook over the weekend. This lapbook went with our unit on Stellaluna and Bats. The unit came from HSS, where else?!

We didn’t do alot of “tradional” lapbook stuff with this one, but it still turned out cute and is a great way for the girls to have a visual of their week learning about bats. If ...
