Homeschool

30 Sep

Homeschooling is not an easy task. If you are a working parent, it's even harder. Finding a balance that works for your family can be a challenge. I know - I'm there in the trenches with you! I've been homeschooling my children from the beginning and we are now entering the high school years. I've also been a full-time night shift nurse for almost 30 years. I was determined that my need to work was not going to stop me from homeschooling. Where there's a will, there's a way. Through the years,...

I hope that you've been following our paper sloyd series. My children and I have been working through the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. We are making videos of each project and posting them here and on YouTube under the name Happy Handicrafts. This week, for Project #10, we learned how to create a paper sloyd fan. We initially thought that this project would be quite simple, but it proved to be the most challenging yet. Although the instructions and diagram were not difficult, we found that accuracy and attention to detail...

We are excited to share our latest Happy Handicrafts video with you! Our most recent project from our Paper Sloyd series is a pencil box. This series is perfect for any homeschool mom who wants to give her children the broad feast of education, but feels that she cannot teach arts and crafts. My children and I created this video series for those homeschool moms who don't feel like they are crafty, are short on time, or could just use a little downtime while teaching another student. All you need is Happy Handicrafts - we are...

There was a hard and fast rule in our family when we were growing up. My parents insisted that everyone take piano lessons for at least one year. At the end of the year, you could either quit if you hated it, continue if you loved it, or change instruments and try something new. I decided to stay with the piano - and what began as a requirement became an enjoyment. I didn't know the benefits of learning a musical instrument, but looking back, it seems that my parents did. Over time, playing the piano...

In our last blog post, How to Create a Paper Sloyd Bookmark, we showed our most recent Happy Handicraft video in our paper sloyd series. It was a very simple way to create a paper sloyd bookmark. I don't know about you, but in our homeschool, we read a lot of books, and we are always in need of bookmarks. These paper sloyd bookmarks are a lot nicer than the scrap paper I normally grab to save my place in a book! Or the piece of random plastic that I found my daughter using as a bookmark! We really enjoyed making these...

Have you been following along on our adventures? We've been working through the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. We've even created a YouTube channel, Happy Handicrafts, to record our progress, and we hope you can come and create with us! This week, we are working Project Number 7, which is how to create a paper sloyd bookmark or book corner. It's a fairly simple project, and one even the younger kids can enjoy. Paper sloyd isn't just simple origami. It has a much deeper purpose, which we delve into in...
