There are many bug books out there so it was difficult to pick one that gave an overview as well as some good details to use in retrospect toward educating kids. I tried to keep the parts short and even added some extra footage for better understanding. Part 1 Insect Overview, Part 2 Spiders, Part 3 Bee's. Enjoy! #Insects #Spiders #Bee #Science #Nature

I think this book is great for kids age 4-8. It's tame for those who get the hebbie-geebies from spiders. I wanted to introduce this book even if it's been out for awhile because it's good science. Since it's October 1st and 30 days until Halloween, I thought it would be well aligned with this months festivities.
This is the little character that I've incorporated into the storyline for more fun and excitement for the little ones. Gail Gibson is very well known as a children's book writer. I have many of her books read aloud and she has many. I believe she's been writing for a long time for kids.
Here is an extra spider story attached to the video, and yes Mrs. Small sings it for you, so you need to watch and listen for yourself on the video above.
" Little Miss Muffet,
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey,
When along came a Spider,
And sat down beside her,
And scared Little Miss Muffet away..."

A science adventure your kids will want to learn about the many different flowers, but there is one thing they all have in common. I wonder what that is? You'll have to follow along to find out!
This book will inspire your young plant scientist to seek out what flowers really are! Hands-on projects ideas will come to mind! Gather some seeds from various plants and make an assorted collection. Do they all flower? Plant them and witness the stages as they reproduce and grow. Create and chart differences as plant/flowers grow and change.

In this picture book I was happily surprised to discover a unique way of keeping kids interested. The book blends history with visual, funny toon imagery into a perfect amount of fun and laughter. The title of the book is, "I am Leonardo da Vinci," by Brad Meltzer, illustrations by Christopher Eliopoulos and is a smart, fun, and inspirational book. The Cartoon characters have a period piece charm to match the day and age of Italy during that era, namely the Renaissance! The kids will be learning some history and having some fun doing it. What more could you ask for?

When I was young I was very fortunate to have a creative family. We would come up with easy to make games that would keep us busy making and playing them. I'm not sure Bungle was named Bungle back then but I liked the sound of it so I'm sticking with it. (Click on the picture to watch a 4-minute video on how it all pieces together and how you play it).
The popsicle stick physics can be a challenge for the younger ones who might need some help. Bungle is most appropriate for ages seven and up. The other two games are the easiest and take less effort to get started. If you don't have clothespins you can easily substitute other basic items to use instead, ie; coins.
Kids are great at coming up with new games. Encourage them to do so. If the house gets a little messy set a time for a 5-minute clean-up at intervals so it doesn't get to be hazardous. You can also make a game out of cleaning up. Gathering and clean-up games that are timed can be a lot of fun and making things fun is the idea.
I must do a brainstorm with my thoughts and to try and remember all the games we played. More game episodes to come in future episodes.
