Most of our February homeschool was focused on our preparations for the Science Fair, however, here are a few extra things that we wanted to remember:
We spent many days in the basement and it was the perfect hygge-homeschooling for a cold February. I would sit by the heater and the kids would alternate sitting by me to do their bookwork and jumping on the trampoline.
Lucy has been LOVING her weekly neighborhood music class. We go for an hour to sing songs and it's easily her favorite thing of her life. She loves each one of the songs, knows which song we need to sing before the snack, and simply enjoys the experience. I have noticed that Lucy is more musically inclined than my other kids. She likes singing more, she likes listening to music more, and singing these songs while at music class with a repeat performance each night before bed of her very favorites, is definitely part of her love language.
Lydia and Ava have been working on their sewing projects each Wednesday. I have really enjoyed teaching sewing to Ava. We are working on a beautiful Sunday dress for her. I also enjoy watching Lydia learn to sew, although her projects tend to be whatever she is interested in making at the time and are mostly self-led.
We rode on the frontrunner for a field trip to SLC during "Free Fare February". The kids always look forward to this and we had a nice time. We rode the frontrunner to SLC, walked to the Clark Planetarium, walked back, then rode the frontrunner back, and it was great.
We spent a couple of days in Morgan, playing games, doing puzzles, helping grandpa forge in his metal shop (garage, ha), and making bread.
A great February!
