Here is our list of books we’re reading. August is James and the Giant Peach and today the kids drew characters as Katie read them descriptions of each. I should have Kit scan the pictures because it was very cute! They also made the green magic stuff… I’m still not sure what it was? But whatever was sprinkled on the tree that made it grow like crazy and we made our version with rice, rubbing alcohol with food coloring, mix it up and let it dry then stir in some glitter.

Then the kids got muffins with fresh peach jam (from peaches picked at a local orchard!) which was DELICIOUS and peach cake balls. How cute are these?? (They are gluten free and egg free!)

Each month we’ll do a story chart/story board to cover the basics and then we’ll do activities and fieldtrips, projects like nature study or science stuff, handicrafts, etc. Some months we’ll also watch the movies. I’m really excited!
