  • The autumnal equinox is tomorrow, and to celebrate the new season we made these little acorns using a wet felting technique. We’ll keep a few and give the rest away as Christmas gifts this year.

  • Some notable achievements for this third week of September. Handcrafts to be used in small world play, and from scratch puff pastry that took all day to make and a blink of an eye to eat.

  • We took a walk in the woods & bumped into that golden September light that kissed the tippy tops of our heads & we stuffed our pockets with fallen leaves & had palmiers for tea & it was just a really, really good day. ✨ . . . . . . . #homeschoollife #lifelearners #exploringnaturewithchildren #lastchildinthewoods #charlottemasoneducation #charlottemasonnaturestudy #waldorfinspired #reggiokids #reggioemiliainspired #enchantedchildhood #bravewriterlifestyle #naturestudy #homeschoolpreschool #gentleparenting #wildandfreekids
  • All of those apples from yesterday made a beautiful and tasty crumble. 🍎 🍏 . . This year I’ve decided not to give my kids worksheets or notebooking pages for apple week. We did that a few years ago, and while it was all fine and good, I just don’t think it’s necessary for them right now. . . I’ve found that simply sticking to good quality books, narrating, and pointing out what we see in real life has been more than sufficient. . . We are however, working on an apple themed sewing craft, which should be finished over the weekend. ☺️ . . . . . . . #poetryteatime #teatime☕️ #afternoonteatime #hyggehomeschool #homeschoolcollective #homeeducation #enchantedchildhood #enchantedlearning #homeschoolcommunity #charlottemasoneducation #charlottemasonhomeschool #bravewriterlifestyle #agentlefeast #simpleliving #slowandsimpledays
  • One of these things is not like the others. 🍋😜 Our favorite part of apple week is taste testing different varieties. Afterwards, we turn these beauties into an apple crisp. This year the kids were blindfolded, and I was able to sneak in a “surprise” which was hilarious! 🤣😈 . . . . . . #thepeacefulpreschool #preschoolactivities #learningathome #playfullearning #appleactivity #letteroftheweek #simplechildhood #simpleliving #letthembelittle #montessoriathome #montessori #reggiokids #reggioemiliaapproach #homeschoolcollective #homeschoolcommunity #homeeducator #homeschoolpreschool
  • It feels so good to be back at it after such a loooong summer break (never doing that again). I’m really thankful that we were able to use almost the entire month of August to give our rhythm a trial run, because it was obvious a lot of things needed to change. . . This year, we’ve moved a few subjects from morning time time to the afternoon and have also added an evening basket to enjoy right before bed. Maybe I should call it a bedtime basket?! . .

  • I’m determined to stay on top of my son’s narration notebook, and since he’ll be required to give me even more narrations for year 2, I don’t think I’ll write them all down! 😅⠀ ⠀ History tends to be the easiest for him to narrate from, but I’m trying really hard to add a variety of subjects to this notebook. ⠀ Texas nature study, geography, and solfa being a few of them. ⠀ By the way, I shared this scone recipe yesterday on my IGTV and whipped up another batch right after breakfast this morning. So good and easy peasy! ⠀ . . . . . #charlottemasonhomeschool #charlottemasoneducation #narration #homeschoolcollective #livingeducation #inspiredlearning #homeeducation #homeschoollife #homeschoolcollective #teatimesnacks #afternoonteatime #notebooking #hyggehomeschool #simpleliving ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
  • Scones are so easy to make, and I wanted to share our tried and true sweet scone recipe with you. It’s a quick bake from start to finish, and we love making these for afternoon tea. ⠀ ⠀ You can add your favorite dried fruit (we did raisins) or even chocolate chips. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 2 1/2 Cups all-purpose flour⠀ 1 Tablespoon baking powder ⠀ 1/2 Teaspoon salt⠀ 8 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter⠀ 1/4 Cup granulated sugar (we use a little less)⠀ 2/3 Cup milk (we used almond milk) ⠀ ⠀ ✍️Heat oven to 425 Degrees Fahrenheit⠀ ⠀ ✍️ Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter and blend with fingers until the mixture looks like fine crumbs. ⠀ ⠀ ✍️ Mix in sugar⠀ ⠀ ✍️ Stir in milk with a wooden spoon, the dough should crumble, but when you pinch it together with your fingers it should stick together.⠀ ⠀ ✍️ Place dough on a floured surface and kneed gently until the dough comes together in a ball, be careful not to over kneed. Then pat into a circle about 1 1/2 inches thick. ⠀ ⠀ ✍️ You can then cut your scones into about 6 wedges, or we sometimes use a small lid to a mason jar for cutting circles. ⠀ ⠀ ✍️ Bake about 12 minutes or until slightly brown on top. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #homesteadinglife #bakingfromscratch #bakingwithlove #bakingwithkids #kidsinthekitchen #montessoritoddler #montessoriathome #charlottemasoneducation #interestledlearning #lifelearning #letthembelittle #letthemplay #homeschoollife #homeeducation #teatimerecipes #sconerecipes
  • Bring on all the fall crafts! I made this mini pumpkin fairy house for my kids to play with and plan on letting them give it a try soon! I think this would be such a fun way to welcome the autumn equinox on the 22nd. 🍁🍂 Thank you @wovenchildhood for the inspiration. #naturecrafts #exploringnaturewithchildren #autumnalequinox #waitingforfall #reggioemiliaapproach #montessori #welleducatedheart #interestledlearning #pumpkinhouse #fairyhouse #fallcrafts #autumncrafts #homeeducation #charlottemasoneducation #pumpkincrafts
