Featured Blogs:
If you like unit studies (especially free ones), you need to bookmark Our Homeschooling Expedition. This mom creates wonderful unit studies regularly and shares her work on her blog. Recent installments include a unit on Animal Classification and one titled “My Community.” She even tells you how to make your own unit studies in this post.
Another favorite-worthy blog is the Homeschool Math Blog. This blogger offers lots of links, resources and ideas for teaching your students math.
Finally, for free unit studies, Friday Five for Free and lots of great money saving tips visit Life. On a Budget. This mom knows how to save those pennies and still find (or create) great curricula for her family!
Honorable Mentions:
To keep up on the many carnivals going around, take a look at the Contests, Fun Stuff and Our HSB Community at Seeking Rest in the Ancient Paths.
I read an interesting post over at stop the ride! last month. The owner of this blog found a way to make $200 taking advantage of online earnings opportunities. I can’t vouch for the companies mentioned of course, but it sure looked interesting.
Do you garden? My family did when I was a child but now that I’m all grown up my efforts have been sporadic. This year we finally made a commitment (and bought a tiller). Here’s a neat and easy alternative if you are small machinery challenged-take a look at Following Rabbi Yeshua’s Square Foot Garden.
Candace over at His Mercy is New has been studying birds this spring and summer. Share her experience and maybe help her identify a mystery bird by reading this entry.
Raising Three Knights and a Princess also needed some help with bird identification. She got her answer, it’s a Killdeer. You can view a beautiful photograph of this bird here.
Now this is something easy to forget but so important to remember. Thanks to Candy Foote for that little reminder.
Here’s another entry that will give you something to think (and thank) about from Templa Quam Dilecta.
I really enjoyed this story over at Blah, Blah, Blog (the manifold musings of a missionary mom).
Here’s another piece of wisdom that’s important to remember from Cross Reflections, Keep Your Life Free From the Love of Money.
Wonder how the Lord uses his children? Take a look at this post, Kids…Kids…more Kids, over at Sprouts for the Lord.

Well, that’s the blog wrap for today. As always, there’s more to share than time allows. What a great community of homeschoolers we have!
Happy Father's Day!
