Falling into a Homeschool Routine: Our Fall in Review

December 29, 2017 By Dani Wagner Leave a Comment

As we enjoy this wonderful holiday season with family, I am also taking the time to look back on the first half of our year, our routines, successes and failures, and where we'd like to go in 2018. Our Fall homeschool term started off without a hitch and we truly have found our groove. There are definitely a few things I'd like to change, but I've also found a ton of great resources and tools that are perfect for any homeschool or preschool. With five little ones, all at various ages and … [Read more...]

Christmas in New York City with Kids

December 15, 2017 By Dani Wagner Leave a Comment

Okay, so I am definitely not a New Yorker ( I don't even live in Jersey) and I'm not a pro, but we've done the New York thing with kids at Christmas time a few years now so I feel like I have some good insight for anyone wanting to try it! I definitely learn more each time and am not afraid to strike up conversations with other "families" on the street/train to ask questions. Since posting pictures of our trip, I've received a ton of questions from friends and followers. The biggest … [Read more...]

Improving Math Skills One Fun Session at a Time: Smartick Method

December 8, 2017 By Dani Wagner Leave a Comment

My family was given a  3-month subscription to Smartick Method to facilitate this post. I did not receive compensation and the opinions are 100% my own.  Personally, math has always been a struggle. I remember very clearly the moment that I received my very first B (gasp) in Middle School Math.  So, in order to help my girls learn to appreciate math and enjoy math at a young age, I am willing to try anything... anything! Growing up I loved Math Blaster you know the game where you had to blast … [Read more...]

Travel I-Spy: A Fun Game for Kids While Traveling

December 1, 2017 By Dani Wagner Leave a Comment

If you are anything like us, the holidays or just visiting family in general means traveling. Some of our travels are under an hour, while others range from 4 hours to three days. So I am always looking for fun ways to keep the kids entertained in the car. Not to mention I'm a fuddy duddy and refuse to just put movies on the whole time. They need to interact, look out their windows, and play games. During one of our many trips to see family in Pennsylvania, we starting getting the kids to … [Read more...]
