Unit Studies & Learning Themes

Market Day | Homeschooling with Cozy Books

Sunday, July 1, 2012

We happened across Market Day at the library one day while perusing the shelves for our pile of books to bring home. It was a book we all instantly liked and have read many times since. I didn’t realize it was a sequel to another favorite in our home, The Milkman, until I read the Amazon …

All-of-a-Kind Family | Homeschooling with Cozy Books

Monday, July 4, 2011

Ella, Henny, Sarah, Charlotte and Gertie are five sisters growing up in a poor Jewish family in New York City in the early 1900’s. The classic read-aloud All-of-a-Kind Family series by Sydney Taylor includes five chapter books that follow the joys and sorrows, faith and celebrations of the special family. This was by far one …

Easy Toasted Pumpkin Seeds Recipe

Sunday, October 24, 2010

I had never toasted pumpkin seeds before today. Oh my. These are SO GOOD. I am seriously going to need to buy more pumpkins just to make more of these! Here is the recipe I adapted for our use. This recipe for toasted pumpkin seeds is so easy and fully of healthy ingredients in including …

Barn-Themed Picture Books

Wednesday, October 21, 2009

Little ones seem to all go through a barn phase. I think it’s the combination of the red color and the cute animals. For whatever reason, it’s a predictable stage when you need to find barn-themed books for kids. These first two books about barns have been Caroline’s two favorite books for about three weeks …

Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush | Homeschooling with Cozy Books

Wednesday, March 18, 2009

Sometimes you happen upon a book that you know is going to become a favorite. This was the case when I found Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush by Iza Trapani at the library. I knew it had everything Caroline would love including the illustrations, the silliness, the rollicking language, and the animals. Here …

Using Sticker Books as Learning Tools

Sunday, February 8, 2009

Like many little ones, Caroline is fascinated by stickers. I found My Big Book Of Stickers and it was a fabulous teaching tool! We garnered hours and hours of learning time from this one book. I actually should say David did because this was an activity that primarily David did with Caroline after supper while …

Quotes From The PBS Series “Frontier House”

Monday, July 25, 2005

This past weekend my husband and I escaped from the heat by watching one of our favorite mini-series, Frontier House. I took the time write down several of my favorite quotes from the show so I could post them here. If you’ve never watched it, I highly encourage you to do so. It’s fascinating on …

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to examine all of life and think for yourself. 

I hope you will join me here where we discuss all of life each day. Check out my Premium Content, the Forum, my Shop, or just start browsing the website I've thoughtfully curated for you.

A Christian Nation

"The real object of the first amendment was not to countenance, much less to advance, Mahometanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity; but to exclude all rivalry among christian sects, and to prevent any national ecclesiastical establishment, which should give to a hierarchy the exclusive patronage of the national government."

Joseph Story (Associate Justice of the Supreme Court), Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States (1833), § 1871.

countenance: To favor; to encourage by opinion or words; To encourage; to appear in defense (Websters Dictionary 1828)
