Adventures in My Father’s World

This is the title of our new homeschool curriculum and boy do we ever love it!!  We are learning so many things about the Vikings, Jamestown, Pocahontas, Captain John Smith, and the Pilgrims… along with doing many fun science experiments and lots of crafts.  Today, we finished reading a book called “Squanto, Friend of the Pilgrims” and then made little mini tepees.  Later this afternoon, we’re making a quick trip across the street to the Dollar Store to pick up a bow and arrow set that comes with a little plastic dagger – then we will come home and make our own life-sized teepee (a fort of somesort made out of blankets and sticks) and we will hunt for buffalo.
