Rush hour time learning
This is still hy far one of the best learning games one can buy for their 2 year old and up. Our son Loves this game. At first he just played with the cars..matching,sorting, patterning. Today he started using the
cards to set up patterns of cars. Awesome!

Homeschool..chores..or sibling play
This week I had the idea of adding sibling play into chores, introduced to me. It really appealed to me, but I had filed it away for future insertation into our busy schedule. Today though,my eldest who is the sheperding type, did this himself. He set up a car track for our preschooler and was busy playing hot wheels with him..while perpetuating the laws of motion!:) Adding in.."Play with brother for 1/2 hour " is something I definately wish to focus on more. Even though the children had a wonderful social morning and friends over afternoon with studies laxed yesterday,("they were still playing minecraft ":)) there is still room for play within a regular books day. Learning. And setting into motion advice given by direction from friends,others, mentors, teachers,older friends and life God given opportunities makes this journey rewarding and sweet.

Tracing regional maps of Canada.
We traced regional maps of Canada. This is a good way for the children to become familiar with Canada. It is also a good exercise in concentration and hand agility. It also can be artistic.
