"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.” by Albert Einstein

Oct. 1, 2007 - Curious about Lapbooks?

We love to utilize lapbooks in our homeschool. 
We have used them for family projects, for example my son made one for our daughter who was taking a mission trip to Peru.  He made it look a mini scrapbook adding stuff about our family as well as adding information about Peru.  It turned out very cute.
We have used them as a follow-up to a field trip.  Often times we receive  great handouts and literature on our field trips.  Additionally. we learn interesting tidbits of information, but do not have an outlet or method to utilize that new-found knowledge.  This is where a lapbook can be a GREAT tool.  We have added photos from the field trip, brochures, notes and other information we gleaned.
A lapbook can help with the culmination of any unit study, book or subject material.

Yahoo Groups are GREAT for getting and sharing ideas.  Check out these:

About Me



We are a curious homeschooling family with curious kids, baby, mom, dad, cat and most curious is our dog. His curiosity gets him into trouble again and again, especially when he is curious about the garbage. The people in our house carry encyclopedias around, even to the bathroom, and like to read the dictionary, large atlases, as well as the BIBLE. We tend to read EVERYTHING (even cereal boxes, junk mail and food labels) and we want to know the answer to all the questions one could ever wonder. We like books on cassettes, CDs, the radio and in our hands. We like to read silently, out loud and mostly before bed. We internet on our networked computers and go enjoy the community library as well as buy oodles of books and I guess that is what curious people do. Have a very BLESSED day full of the exciting curiosity of a child!

“Curiosity is the very basis of education and if you tell me that curiosity killed the cat, I say only the cat died nobly.” Arnold Edinborough
