We started this week learning about pioneers. After learning about the Indians for a couple weeks, Isaac suggested we learn about the pioneers, so we began. I don't have an already made lesson plan for this one, but that's okay. Yesterday, they made a wagon out of the kitchen table turned upside down. Packed it with boxes, blankets, a rocking chair (thank you Aunt Linda), and a water cooler. Hannah had a baby she brought along. Isaac made a quiver for arrows (loves the Indian history) and Jesse made a gun out of a paper towel tube. Jazi made sure Simeon was comfortable, since he was the smallest and would have ridden in the wagon back in the day. This lasted a couple hours that they played with the wagon.


Today they are going to be making yarn dolls. Days like this are great! |
