Angela’s homeschool video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dC6LwcP0AyY&t=721sShaye’s homeschool videoRead Aloud Revival https://readaloudrevival.com/Explode the Code: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079NRDB28?ie=UTF8&tag=homemakerch03-20&camp=1789&linkCode=xm2&creativeASIN=B079NRDB28Sonlight https://www.sonlight.com/
A Quick Tip for Your Home: Shaye's Grandma told her Mom… who told her… anytime you walk from one room to the next, do a quick look around to see if there’s anything you can put away on the way. “Never go into a room empty-handed”, she would say. This small little habit can make a lasting impact in how many things get put away (read: less mess and clutter!) throughout the day.
Angela always tells her kids, “Don’t LEAVE the room empty-handed” which of course is the same thing. AND never, ever, ever walk past the stuff on the stairs. (Which they do every time:)
