Hands on learning world maps are fantastic for learning geography and has been an important part of our homeschool curriculum.

My kids love to play with maps.

Is Your Attention Ever Undivided, Mom?

Today was a day to just let the kids stay home.  It's hard in our fast paced world not to feel guilty about relaxing.
