It was a really busy month for us in February- probably one of the more stressful months that I’ve had in a while. This was mostly due to the Big Chill gymnastics meet our gym hosted. I was a meet director this year for The Big Chill which involved spending 20-30 hours per week in…

Our August 2014 Unschooling Resources & Activities
After a hectic first two months of summer, this month was wonderfully lazy in comparison. We hung around the house a lot and didn’t travel at all. September looks to be the same way, too, so far. It was a month of both wrapping up old projects like our Minecraft Homeschool class and diving deeper…
Our July 2014 Unschooling Resources & Activities
This was an incredibly busy month for us. We had lots of fun, but I am really glad the month’s over! I know I’ve missed out on recording quite a bit of what the kids did at home on their own since I had so much to do myself without them and couldn’t keep up…
Our June 2014 Unschooling Resources & Activities
It’s finally summer after months of never quite feeling warm most of the day…and I’m posting our June 2014 learning log at the very beginning of July, too! Things are off to a great start this month 🙂 We had the opportunity to do some more travel again this month. We took a 4 day…
2014 Spring Travel Edition: England, Wales & Ireland
At the beginning of this spring, my family and I were able to take a two and a half week trip to England, Wales and Ireland. Besides Canada and a British territory, we had never been able to travel to a foreign country on our travels, so this was a very big and exciting trip…

Our March 2014 Unschooling Resources & Activities
Once again, I’m hopelessly behind in posting our learning logs. As you’ll find out over the next few weeks, we’ve had a heavy travel schedule. Since I am so behind, these next three months learning logs are going to be pretty much bare bones. I’ve listed most of what we’ve accomplished, but I’m not going…
Our February 2014 Unschooling Resources & Activities
It seems like I’ve lived in layers of clothes, hats and gloves this February- even inside my house! It’s been a cold, cold month here in Chicagoland. We’ve had snow on the ground nonstop for almost three months now. I’ve never liked the cold anyway, and now I REALLY hate the cold! I’m so ready…
Our January 2014 Unschooling Activities & Resources
Were you freezing throughout the entire month of January like I was? I just looked at the weather for the next few days and almost cried. Finally next week there will be a day with a high in the 40’s! I never thought I would actually be glad to see temperatures in the 40’s. Despite…
