Welcome to my blog. It is updated weekly with pictures and projects from our homeschool - maybe you can find something to inspire you :) I have a (no longer updated) materials page elsewhere on my website and will, occasionally, post my homemade materials in this blog.
I'm married to Tim (delivery driver and gorgeous musician), have 2 daughters, live on the south coast of the UK and have 1 aging cat (Hemmingway or Hemmy for short). I love reading, yoga, crafts, baking, daft old comedies, music and teaching.
On this page you can find my homeschool blog, if you want to read my general, day-to-day blog, click the link below :)
NOTE ON PICTURES: This shouldn't be necessary but I have, sadly, noticed growing cases. Please DO NOT link directly to pictures on this website - it steals my bandwidth and is BAD! I CAN trace you if you do and I will take action.

Viewing snowflakes
If you have snow where you are, here is a REALLY easy and fascinating
thing to do that we just did and it worked perfectly.
If you have a microscope with slides, pop one of the slides in the
freezer for about an hour. Then, take it outside and grab a flake of
snow (just let it snow on your slide). Quickly, put it under the
microscope and look ........... we got the most gorgeous, clear view of
a single snowflake. Amazing!
