State by State puzzle fun! This was so much fun for everyone watching the kids. Me Too delighted with doing such a large puzzle. Minnie Me felt grown up with her vocabulary of states. And Little Mommy entertained us all with state stories from history and our family's geography stories.
Future uses and ideas:
- timed puzzle
- working it alphabetically
- working it in order of statehood
- working it by Capitols
- working it blind folded!
- tracing the state pieces on felt to make their own puzzle
This land is your land
This land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the Red Wood Forrest
To the Gulf Steam Waters
This land was made for you and me
Now it's time for 4th of July cupcakes!
Nothing tastes better than making them yourself!
I praise The LORD for the freedom and blessing to homeschool. May it be for His Glory. I pray the girls learn to see His Hand in all of HisStory.
From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. For in him we live and move and have our being.
Acts 17:26-28
NOW IS THE TIME.
Do not think that because you are in the king's house you alone of all the Jews will escape. For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?
Esther 4:13-15
I think on these verses sometimes is the light of homeschooling in our country. I am part of royalty because I am a daughter of the king and because I live in such a great country. Yet my christian brothers and sisters near and far are put to the test. There is a battle all around growing for our families and for God's truth. Have we come to this position in Christ, in the US for such a time as this? I will not remain silent. I will fill my children with the WORD, so they know the Way, the Truth and the Life. They will have to arm themselves and take up the fight. The Battles will come causing them to stumble and fall, Yet victory through repentance is there waiting. I pray they know the LORD well enough to return in those times and point others to the LORD. Bringing Jesus Glory. God's plan on His calendar will stand....the choice is: escape and salvation, truth and life for me and my family OR wait, remain silent, and lack faith to whatever the call on your life is. Deliverance will come! His Name is Jesus!
