Our newest thing these days is adding knitting and typing
to our weekly scehdule. :)
The 2nd thing I decided on was teaching Autty how to type. She has been receiving and sending
e-mails to friends and cousins and since we live overseas typing and computer use are a must. I love the site we found that is fun, interactive, effective and free. Also she can do it independently. So we have added that to our rhythm of the week also. :)
My favourite quote these days regarding Homeschool is:
Success is the sum of small efforts -
repeated day in and day out." - Robert Collier

This has been a great free program for teaching Autty how to type.
We have now put typing on her schedule twice a week 10-20 minutes. :)
Autty loves audio books. Here is a free site we found with some classics. There is a fair selection of books that you can down load and listen to on your computer or iPod.
My younger two still love picture books. Here is a site that is great for younger kiddos to enjoy some free books and read alouds. There are several books that are read aloud...including Fancy Nancy. :)
In my west corner enjoying learning and teaching with my kiddos,

How nice for Autty to learn to knit - and great that you have a friend to teach her - kids often learn better from someone other than their mother (and don't I know it!!)
We use dance mat typing too - my girls love it - such a fun learning tool!
Sending you sunshine and smiles from Australia!
