Six Reasons You Should Save Time in Your Schedule for Field Trips

Six Reasons You Should Save Time in Your Schedule for Field Trips

by Tonya on November 16, 2011 · 1 comment

I’m nearing the end of my homeschool journey. One child will graduate next year and the other two will soon follow. As I look back over our fondest homeschool memories I think of amazing read alouds that stole a piece or our hearts, co-ops with friends, and even a few science experiments gone bad. I also remember some of the many field trips that we’ve taken since we embarked on...

The Domestic Diva » Homeschool Field Trip: Bowling

We recently joined another local homeschool group in our area and once a week have new activities for the kidlets to do. Last week our field trip was to a local bowling alley for the kidlets to try their hand at bowling for the very first time. They had SO much fun which I knew they would.
