Getting Into the Physical Body With Young Children

One of the greatest books I have found for an introducing Science to a young child is the very simple Flip-the-Flap Body Book. This book gives you three areas of the human body to explore. You can select from any one of the book in order to explore the parts of the digestive system, the senses and the reproductive system. Each subject area is covered at a suitably basic level and is a platform for much laughter whilst answering some of those common anatomical questions.

The Digestive System

My boys found talking about their digestive system funny at first. I guess everyone has their own reasons why some provide feedback can make you giggle especially when it comes to gas trying to escape from either end of the system. The upside is that they can now also talk about it quite seriously without breaking into a giggle. This has enabled them to communicate very clearly not only the importance of food but has also been an instrumental in developing their understand of a healthy mindset and developing a dietary approach that utilises nutritious food. It also helps significantly when they have a stomach ache!

The Senses

My children also had fun exploring their senses both through the book as well as using some games we played. There is nothing like being blindfolded and being asked what something is by taste, touch, sound or smell! This section has been great for expanding the vocabulary that my children use to extend the ' this tastes good ' to include descriptions button of the taste as bitter, sour, salty or sweet as well as the texture being soft, creamy, mushy, hard, or crispy. It has complimented their skill development also in being able to describe leaves and plants in nature study, or animals that they have seen. The senses can open your children's eyes, ears, nose, mouth and hands to a whole world of exploration.

The Reproductive System

However, the best part for me at the time that we read it was having a book to explain the development of the latest addition to our family without stressing about giving too much information. The book explains very clearly the different physical responses with go through from morning sickness to fatigue. It also discusses the baby's development over the nine months and some of the things that they can expect once the baby arrives. It was a great chapter that was read over and over in the final weeks. As their expectation of the baby arriving grew so did their desire to read this chapter! The only issue we have not dealt with is the fact that there is a belief that sperm can be differentiated into ' boy sperm ' and ' girl sperm ' by their color-which you will understand when you buy the book!

A Parent's Guide to Homeschooling by Tamra b. Orr

Did you know that one third of the men who signed the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of the Federation, and the Constitution of the United States had no more than a few months of schooling under their belts? Isnt that truly is an awesome fact when you really sit down and think about that? Do you recognize any of these other homeschoolers —? Constantly.perhaps you know these names.-Beatrix Potter, Alexander Graham Bell, Orville and Wilber Wright, Mozart, Charles Dickens, Agatha Christie, Hans Christian Anderson, C.S. Lewis, or how about Leann Rimes herself, and the list goes on. As Mark Twain once said, "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education." Isnt that an awesome statement?! Does YOUR schooling interfere with the things you really want and need to learn to get along in life?

This book covers a multitude of questions, answers, and should statistics. Subjects such as: How Did Homechooling Begin and Where is it going? Homeschooling Is the Right Choice for Your Family? One of the sections that I have enjoyed about this book is the section called "In the Trenches." Throughout the book are small sections where homeschooling families tell us of their own personal homeschool stories, and each family offers advice and encouragement to others along the same path that they have been on. Those selections alone are worth reading.

Homeschooling can truly be as awesome and profound of an education as you choose to make it! Ask yourself this one question ...Do you want to ' always ' be learning something new? Or do you just want to be able to learn enough to ' get you by? ' YOU have to choose? It's entirely up to you!
