Pumpkins aren’t just for October! After all, isn’t it Thanksgiving that celebrates the bounty of the harvest? I needed to roast our pie pumpkins for next week, so we did some pumpkin science! Observation, making hypotheses, testing, and recording our results: pumpkins float, and have a LOT more seeds than we think!
When I unpacked some boxes a few weeks ago, my daughters saw several books of paper dolls I’d saved from my childhood. Untouched. Copyright 1978. 😳 They had been too pretty to use, so I had tucked them away, and pulled them out to look at from time to time, too afraid of messing them up to cut them out and use them. My daughters don’t have those issues, thankfully. They use their toys, as they should, and they derive great joy from them. We’ve been cutting out designs from Harper’s Bazar for days now, and talking about what life was like for women at that time. Including a conversation on Election Day about how the women who wore those dresses weren’t allowed to vote. Big stuff. #thisishomeschool #mamawasahoarder #homeschool
