Poppins Book Nook

I love virtual book clubs, especially for the kids. I participated in one when the kids were smaller and reading picture books, and tried to adapt that same club to their current ages but it didn't work out because I couldn't find books by the recommended authors in their age range.

But my friend Jill at Enchanted Homeschooling Mom invited me to be a co-host in the upcoming season of the Poppins Book Nook, a virtual book club for kids of all ages! The fun thing about this book club is that instead of featuring specific authors each month, there is a featured theme. So, any age can participate and use any level of book just so long as it fits within the specified theme.

Here are the themes for the 2014 - 2015 season …

As an example, for March we will be reading Papa and the Lephrechaun King: The Secret Legend of the Shamrock by Arthur Cola and exploring "Where in the World do Leprechauns Live?" We will read the book and showcase the activities we do surrounding the book.

You are invited to join along! Just come back on the last Monday of each month and leave a comment on my blog post with the link to your post about the book you read and the activities you did! It's that easy … and that fun!

I hope that you will consider joining Poppins Book Nook.

It will be supercalifragilisticexpialadocious!

A New Year, the Same Me

Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...
