About This Blog

This blog started out as a fun blog about different projects I did with my kids, then it turned into a homeschooling blog, now...it's kind of both. I love doing activities with my kids and making fun things for them to play with. I'm a huge fan of busy bag activities and I am a mild hoarder, as I feel the need to save EVERYTHING, just in case I find a fun activity that requires egg cartons or something. Also, I have a slight obsession with felt. I hope you enjoy this blog and maybe find some inspiration in the randomness of it all. :)

Tiny Toads

We got back from our 2 week 4th of July vacation to find our baby birds had left the nest...sort of.  From the looks of the pile of bird poop on our front porch, I'd say they still live there.  Now I'm thinking of removing the nest and putting a rubber snake there to encourage them to build somewhere else.  Now that there are no eggs in it, I feel no guilt in doing so.  Well, not much, anyway.  :)  

We also came home to find hundreds of tiny toads all over the place.  They are adorable and we have had fun catching them.  Especially J.  I have to keep a close eye on him to make sure he doesn't hurt them.  They are probably more resilient than I'm giving them credit for, but they just look fragile and I'm afraid he's gonna mush them.  lol.  These pictures are from our toad hunt his afternoon.  Except the first two.  I took those last night for my sister, so she could see how itsy bitsy they are.  :)








  Then we came inside and looked up the difference between frogs and toads.  Lots of fun things in our yard this year.
