A is for ANT









.. if you haven't gotten on the "lapbook" train with your children, you're missing out!

It is so much fun and a such wonderful way to teach your children about a subject, as well as teach them how to research things at a young age!



I couldn't wait to get started on ours! Maggie's being on the letter A, subject being "Ants," and Nate's will be on Nutrition, which we've already started, just haven't completed yet.

With Maggie just being 3, I did most of the research myself, gathering of all the materials.... she mainly just colored, cut, and learned as we went along!

Nate's will, of course, be more hands on since he's older and more knowledgeable about the computer. Can't wait for you to see his later on in the week!

Also, there are tons of resources out there for you to get started!

One being the homeschoolshare.com website. It's full of lapbooking 101 for beginners and also lots of great ideas and helpful tips for lapbooking veterans!

Hope you enjoy our little Ant adventure! Keep in mind it's our very first one!:) But maybe it will motivate you to get creative and get one started with your little ones!

Happy Homeschooling!!
