Christian Homeschool Resources We’ve Loved

Christian Homeschool Resources We've Loved
This year will be our eighth year homeschooling. I’ve loved every second of it.

One of the things I love to do here at Thinking Kids is to let you know about great Christian resources I’ve found. The other day I received an email asking about our favorite Christian homeschool resources. In eight years of homeschooling, we’ve certainly found some resources worth using year after year. I’m so happy to share them with you!

Christian Homeschool Resources We’ve Loved

We’ve tried a lot of curriculum, but there are homeschool resources we’ve stuck with from the beginning. Some, I couldn’t find a resource I loved, so I wrote our own, and some I’ve come across for our boys as they’ve entered middle and high school, and I’m thrilled….. Continue reading

Parenting with the Windows Open: Gospel Centered Parenting
It’s that time of year here where everyone ventures into the sunshine, blinks, and smiles. The rain is gone, the weather is warm, and the windows are thrown open.  Here in the Pacific Northwest, we celebrate our beautiful, short summer by living outside to the best of our ability.

It’s also the time of year that parenting is on display. There are parents at the water park, at the zoo, on the hiking trails, and in every house surrounding mine.

Gospel centered parenting doesn’t demean–it edifies.…. Continue reading

100+ Screen Free Activities for Kids

100+ Screen Free Activities for Kids
When our oldest two were younger, we had video games in the house. We quickly realized those games had a tendency to be a little addictive. Not only that, playing the games altered their personalities for hours afterwards. They were cranky and unresponsive. Activities our kids used to love fell by the wayside. We removed the video games, and things improved. We soon realized, though, that TV had a similar effect.

Today, our family watches a few educational YouTube videos or short movies (like What’s in the Bible with Buck Denver?) a week, and maybe a family movie a few times a month. The rest of the time, we’re screen free. It works for us.

Last year, I made a list of 100+ Screen Free Activities for Teens. Here’s a fun list of activities for your younger kids. These screen free activities are all tested and approved by my four kids….. Continue reading
