My 8 year old is loving the Usborne, "First Nature Reader" and James Herriot's "Animal Stories". Every few days I have him do a drawing from the reading. I loved this one:
My 3 year old just loves to draw monsters. His wall above his bed is decorated with monsters; why this doesn't give him nightmares I don't know. This was his cow monster. I'd love to understand the inspiration.
Came over to take a peek because I saw your comment in the 5MFSN sidebar. What talented little kiddos you have -- love the drawings!
I have a 7-year-old and a 3-year-old and we homeschool too, in large part due to ongoing medical issues with our eldest. You're right -- keeping the schedule straight with all those doctor appointments can be quite a challenge.
Anyway, just thought I'd drop by and say "hi" and invite you to link up your childrens' lovely artwork at 5MFSN's Magic Marker Monday -- quite the little artists you have there!
Our two youngest children were born with a rare error of metabolism called Fatty acid Oxidation Disorder. The advent of a chronic condition in our family has required that we learn to be both flexible and consistent with our home schooling. Not an easy combo for this fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants type mom.
A special diet and a few medications enable both boys to do, learn, and play almost as if the disorder did not exist. For more info. on genetic errors of metabolism go to Fod Family Support.
