Teach Them Diligently Sandusky OHIO 2016

We were very blessed to have the resources to drive 8+ hours to Ohio for the Teach Them Diligently Convention. It was such a wonderful time for us.

The kids had a CRAZY time at the waterpark. Their first time!! I was amazed at the courage of our older ones to go on the rides.

My hubby and I were so filled up by the speakers. The sessions were really encouraging. We especially gained a lot from Todd Wilson and Karen DeBeus.

We were also quite excited about the museum of the Bible, coming to D.C in July 2017.

I had the chance to enjoy some time with moms at the Evening of Real Refreshment. Mennonites worshiping with Pentecostals? Why not? =) It was an interesting experience. I appreciate the work put in by the team.

I feel that TTD was VERY well organized and they had a ton of great speakers. I only wished the times for meals were not that rushed. =)

Thank God for a mom on facebook to remind me the use of crockpot liners. OH MY!!! It saved our sanity not having to wash the crockpot in the little sink.

We did easy lunches in the room and also crockpot meals: Chicken Salsa and Chinese Soy Minced Meat (turned out to be meat balls) REALLY good!!

We actually toured a little more of the east of midwest (Pittsburg, Ohio, Indiana) before the conference and it was so good. That will be in a separate post.

Online Resources: Sesame Street Games

I love the Sesame Street Games ...I think they are the best for preschoolers. They teach important concepts, at the same time, making computer skills real easy. For eg, there is no "click and drag"...that's hard for them...there's "click" "move" "click". There are some games Ian really likes...(click on photo for the games) That's the Wheels on the Bus song (you press the keys foe interactive movements) Patterns. Seasons. Fun for the kids. Walking the dogs...numbers. This is alltime favorite. First you make a pitcher of lemonade. Then depending on how many monsters come, you click however many cups. I love it!

Science 2015/2016: Human Body Recap

We really had fun learning about the Human Body this year. I thought it would be meaningful to consolidate our learning. We enjoyed the Body Book more than I thought we would. I did do most of the cutting though. We also enjoyed the different videos we watched and the experiments. I think this is the most successful science year yet. The five senses Tongue the Ear The Skin The Eye Skeleton Joints Long Bone Tooth Brains Spinal Cord Digestive System Stomach The Lungs The Heart The Urinary System The Muscle Look through all our experiments and videos here .
