Have a Seuss Inspired Day With three free printable quotes and a fun Round Up March 2nd is Dr. Seuss’ birthday and is also marked as Read Across America day. You can grab free printables from Seussville to have a Seuss inspired day and I’m also happy to share with you a few of my favorite Seuss inspired posts from across the blogosphere. Dr. Seuss is a theme that we’ll definitely include in Tot School and homeschool preschool (perhaps beyond, if we continue with formal homeschooling). I think that there’s a lot of fun to be had with any Dr. Seuss book. I’m also sharing with you a few printable Dr. Seuss quotes. I anticipate having more to share on March 2nd, but for now,…

Afterschooling with Sweet B: All About the Letter A I wanted to share with you, one of our afterschooling sessions now that we have most of the components in place. Last week, Sweet B was off from school for February break so I thought we could try some of her afterschooling stuff during the day instead. Prior to this we had only been using a simple system that wasn’t really formal or had a set routine. Now, of course, it’s a matter of integrating the afterschooling activities throughout the week in their correct time. But, the premise is the same when we did this over the course of last week. To kick things off, we’re learning all about the letter A.

  Pillars of Our Afterschooling As we’re continuing to refine our afterschooling program with Sweet B in terms of supplements and other things, I felt that it was high time that I should talk about one of the pillars of our afterschooling program. One of the reasons I wanted to start afterschooling with Sweet B was to increase her literacy and fine motor skills. Fine motor skills have always been a big area of hers as far as what to work on and literacy is close behind. It’s difficult to measure her literacy since she’s non-verbal but she has shown improvements over the past few years. She’s still nowhere near peers of her age and developmentally is around 6 or 7 years of age. This…

Chicken and Quinoa Casserole

Chicken and Quinoa Casserole (hearty and healthy) My ex was a very picky eater, so convincing him to try something like quinoa just wasn’t going to happen. And if I suggested something like a broccoli and chicken casserole? Forget it. So, when I suggested trying this next recipe to Kyle, I wasn’t sure how it was going to go over. Sure, he’s been a lot more open to trying things and hasn’t said no to anything I’ve suggested. But this, I thought, might be pushing it because it was a chicken and quinoa casserole. Personally, I love quinoa but hadn’t cooked with it too much in the past few years because I was the only one eating it. Then, I came across a delicious casserole…
