Herbs and Essential Oils. Sunday, September 7, 2014. Maya and I attended the yearly Herb Festival in Cannon Falls this weekend. It was great to see Lise Wolff. Among other things), aside from that though the rest of the festival was awesome. Can never get bored learning and talking about medicinal plants :-) (note: anyone that knows anything about the use of essential oils will know why I count that one instructor as a negative). Farm in Cannon Falls. Maya: Farm in Cannon Falls. Links to this post.

Herbs and Essential Oils. Thursday, October 30, 2014. LEARNING AWAY FROM THE CHAIR. We are trying to find creative ways of learning away from the chair. Sitting down at a table for even a second isn't fun for either of us so we're exploring different ways of learning the essentials without having to be at a table to do it. I started with this worksheet that I created. It's working out well. The information is starting to stick so that makes me happy :-) Plus, she thinks baking is fun. Links to this post.

Herbs and Essential Oils. Wednesday, February 19, 2014. RAW FLEECE: PART ONE. I admit it, I'm a fiber hoarder. I'm also a book hoarder, a yarn hoarder, a soap supply hoarder, a card supply hoarder and. ok, you get the point. Problem with raw fiber is you really can't hoard it for very long or else the moths move in so. after stashing this stuff away for nearly a year I decided it was time to deal with it. Anyone reading this post ever process raw wool? Tell me about it! Links to this post.

Herbs and Essential Oils. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. HERBS, HERBS, HERBS. I decided it was time to teach my youngest about herbs. After quizzing her I found that she knows quite a bit but it was time to incorporate some fun stuff. We are going to work our way through as many herbs as we can until winter arrives and our herb garden and wild medicinal plants have died back. For each herb she is journaling, coloring, and creating. A while back I found this book:. The Lion and the Wise Teacher. Unfortunately,...

Herbs and Essential Oils. Saturday, August 23, 2014. I AM STILL A MUD PUDDLE GIRL. Back in 2007 my friend Carrie over at Under the Willow. Presented me with a digital Mud Puddle Girl award (see original post about that HERE. What is a Mud Puddle Girl you ask. well, this is how Carrie defines it: she can play just as hard as any little boy, catch fish in a pond, hold bugs, hug a very dirty dog, climb trees, ride a bike, and run in the mud.

Herbs and Essential Oils. Friday, February 6, 2015. DOES GOD GIVE US THE AUTHORITY TO KILL WOLVES? Numerous times, while debating the wolf hunt with some Christians, I often hear how it is God that gave us dominion over animals. And it is God that gave us the authority to kill them. Now, I've studied the Christian bible (cover to cover) more than once and I've not seen where in the scriptures God gives man the right to kill every animal on earth for their own selfish needs. Rule over the fish of the sea ...

While Aiyana is doing her schoolwork I often poke around on Pinterest. The worksheet looked pretty much like this: (Click image to Download). And this is one finished report that Aiyana did. Coming out of her mouth. If anyone happens to know who is the original creator of this worksheet, please let me know so I can give credit for the idea. Links to this post. You'll find ...
