Welcome to Together on Tuesdays Linky Party #110! We took off for the Christmas holiday week, but now we're back on schedule. I hope you all had a beautiful and meaningful holiday season. Our family celebrated Christmas and New Years, with a visit from all of my children and their spouses. It was a priceless time of joy!

Now, with the New Year here and winter upon us, we're spending much time indoors. How about you and yours? I hope your holidays were wonderful! You probably are busy posting many links that we'll all love to read. With Together on Tuesdays, you can link up any and all Family-Friendly (G-rated) posts.

100 Days of Science #71-- Making Homemade Yogurt Pops

-
Image
With both my husband and myself on Weight Watchers we've cut out so many snacks but found some really delicious yogurt bars that we're all loving... but at 4 pops for just over $4 a box I thought it might be fun to try making our own.  I just knew this would be a perfect lesson to add to our 100 days of science challenge!



We bought a popsicle mold last year and we had mixed results with making a few different kinds.  I thought making some homemade yogurt pops would be a great, yummy, science experiment.  
First we diced up some strawberries making sure we had about a cup of them.

Then put them through our blender with 1/2 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt, a 1/2 cup of almond milk, 2 ounces of light cream cheese, a splash of vanilla, and just 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.


We poured the mixture into our molds; getting 7 1/2 pops.  We let them freeze for an hour while we went hiking and then pulled them out of the freezer just long enough to put the sticks inside.  Then we fr…

30 History Movies for Middle School

Ian is starting a new film study unit in our homeschool.  He loves watching movies and when I found the Thinking Tree Film Study Journal I just knew Ian would love the opportunity to watch movies as part of his homeschooling day.


I set to work writing up a list of movies I thought he'd enjoy watching.  These are just some of the movies I found that I thought he'd enjoy watching as part of our history lessons.



1.  Secretariat-- A story about a horse that won the Triple crown in 1973; the first American Thoroughbred to win in 25 years.


2.  Captain Philips- A movie about the 2009 hijacking of a US Container ship by a crew of pirates.


3.  Sully- Based on the "Miracle on the Hudson" this movie takes us through the plane that landed in the Hudson river.

4.  A League of their Own- A fictional story of the All-American Girls Baseball League of 1943



5.  Gung- Ho-- When the Japanese re-open an American auto plant the workers have to learn to bend to the new management methods…

May Pinterest Challenge-- Sour Cream and Onion Chex mix

-
Image
We are always on the look out for new Chex Mix flavorings  (just check out our Italian Ranch mix, Zesty Ranch,Parmesan Italian Chex mix, or our Best Chex Mix EVER).
I wondered if there was a way I could make some sour cream and onion Chex mix.  I went looking on Pinterest and didn't find a single recipe for it but I did find this pin that promised a delicious sour cream and onion popcorn or snack shaker and thought I could use that.



In case you've missed the past few months of challenges: We made some homemade marshmallows in January Some cheesy chicken chowder in February creamy noodle turkey casserole in March In April I shared some scrapbooking pages from our Busch Gardens trip

Unschooling Ideas for all subjects

-
Image
The boys all piled into my bed for some snuggling and cuddling.  We talked and just enjoyed hanging out with one another for quite a bit.  Once they all started tickling one another, feet were flying and wrestling ensued I decided to sneak out and spend some time on the computer coming up with a plan of activities.



It seems our weeks go best when I have activity ideas already in my mind when the week begins. 

 If we don't get around to them it's not a big deal, but it seems to work best if I have suggestions for some fun learning games and projects.

Typically I only plan enough activities to last us until lunch and then they're on their own for actual unschooling.

I don't force anyone to participate in any lesson or activity;  I suggest things to do that I hope they'll be interested in.

Lately, I've made the mistake of not having ideas at the ready and it seems like we're all floundering for things to do.  I started out trying to make a list of 5 activitie…
