Morning Basket has continued to be the best thing about our days. We start while she is eating breakfast and end cuddled up together on the couch. There is no better way to start the day in my opinion and if all we do is morning basket we have had a great school day too!…
Emily’s love for animals runs deep, this girl lives and breathes for all things animals. So it was no surprise when she asked what she wanted to learn next she said animals. I knew that this was not going to be a short or simple unit so I really went to town on this one….
