I Spy… Holiday Helps, Workbox Games, and Creative Narration

Hello friends! I want to start this week’s feature by apologizing to everyone for my lack of a submission last week. I got too caught up in getting unpacked and settled in and my mind was in a state of utter chaos. I completely spaced! I hope you will forgive my absentmindedness.

I have some really great links to share with you this week, so without further delay…

• The Thanksgiving holiday is just a week away and there are some wonderfully helpful posts out there to help you get through the holiday. Confessions of an Organized Homeschool Mom shares how-to Have an Organized Thanksgiving, and if you are seeking some great holiday crafts to do with your kids check out this exhaustive list of turkey kid’s crafts.

• Speaking of holidays, we all know that Thanksgiving Day is synonymous with cooking and baking, Need some tips on managing your littles while in the kitchen? Read this article from Joyful Chaos!

• As usual, I have come across some more great posts from fellow Workbox System users. Check out these suggestions for implementing waiting stations and while you’re out it go to What’s in the Box? to learn about a great workbox resource that’s FREE!

• And to wrap things up, here is a great post from Counter-Cultural School about creative ways to do narration.

Have a great week and Happy Homeschooling!
