backyard learning part 1

                                            More backyard learning! 
                               Three kinds of birds visited..

                      Sharing photos of our Monday morning..

 I saw this book mentioned on a blog,
because we are going to learn about birds 
this summer..

I went out and bought it

and we are loving it!

                                                         This was great! 
             We are going to have more mornings like this!

a garden book perfect for the little grower and cooker

Here is a book we love to look at for

book sharing monday.

                         It has wonderful descriptions,

                         photos and great ideas for a  

   little garden. Also, recipes for the
food you just

                           grew!

It gives my kids hopes

and dreams for the green plants we are putting in the soil.

This one got these girls interested in helping with a garden.

In honor of National PI Day!

           

  I have heard of this before.. and a friend was telling me about it this weekend.
We thought we would join in the celebration too! We have found lots of fun sites.. here is one

and since we don't really understand the whole pi thing.. we thought we could actually bake one(inspired by the photo we found online) too, today.
Luckily.. we have some math books from the library! So it goes with my new idea ( copied from other fun, interactive,  blogs I read) to have a theme for each day.. Monday... "book sharing day"

So, enjoy our first book sharing monday. 

The kids loved this book, even the little guy...
