Some of the easiest science experiments are the most fun and you don’t always need lots of equipment either, there are a lot of investigations you can try that don’t need much more than just you! If these aren’t quite what you’re looking for you might also like my science experiments using paper or my cardboard STEM Challenges which are also super simple! How tall is a tree? Find out how tall a tree is, using this simple trick. How many feet tall are you? Find out how many feet, or hands tall you are with this easy activity. We cut out feet from paper and used them to measure, but you could just mark your height on the floor...
Raising Arrows Large Family Homeschool Life – Week 30 of 2021 Check out what went on in our large family home and homeschool this week in July! Read all of the Large Family Homeschool Life posts HERE >> MONDAY Got up and took a 1 mile walk while the 16 year old got her individual school work finished early. We aren’t doing Morning Time today because Ty took the boys to the cabin. Creed (8) had to stay home because he has a cough and I was worried the altitude would make it worse, so it’s just him and all of us girls! After lunch, we watched Olympic gymnastics and the little girls pretended to be gymnasts. It was hilarious and...
Babies know the score. Everyone knows that people who exhibit supernatural abilities are considered better than others. Even though a lot of comic books and movies depict superhumans as deeply flawed and downright despicable people, you can’t help but show deference to someone who can shoot eye lasers or punch your head clean off your shoulders. Now, thanks to a study conducted by Osaka University, Kochi University of Technology, and Kyushu University, we know that this isn’t merely a social construct, but an innate human quality. In the study, 96 infants aged 12 to 16 months were observed while viewing animated characters competing against each other. Two of the characters had no special abilities but one had the power of...

Especially when you consider all of the freaking toys out there that are marketed towards kids. Thankfully, there is an overlap between electronics and educational learning for kids, which narrows down the search at least a little bit. You see, electronic kits for kids typically don’t require the use of a screen, they have several STEM-based learning properties and they can be enjoyed by kids on their own or in a group. The best part is that you can get in on all of the fun too, or you can leave your kids at ease...

For a while, the answer was plain and simple: not really. For the first couple months of my twins’ lives, nothing really satisfied them in the sleep department. They didn’t seem to like the swaddle, but when I threw my hands up and said, "fine, no swaddle," they startled themselves awake over and over… and over again. Then a friend suggested I try Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit. What is Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit? Baby Merlin’s Magic...
