home schooling Archives - life thru my hazel eyes

As many of you know, both of our kids are in public school. But because their school does not do a lot of homework, I like to incorporate some home schooling as well.

Now, don’t get me wrong! I love the idea of no strenuous homework assignments. I am a big fan of kids spending more time with family and friends. I encourage outdoor play. But during summer, winter and spring break and at least once a week during school weeks, I throw in a worksheet or two.

Why? [insert mom voice]: BECAUSE I SAID SO 🙂

It’s official – we are on summer break.

We are a little behind on our summer bucket list but we will get there. For now we are just ready to enjoy some much needed time outside and stop the routines – even if it is just for a little while. But I also know that soon enough, I will be begging for some quiet time.

Here are some activities that hold a child’s interest, require concentration and will keep them busy for at least an hour.
