If you’ve been following along in my stories you’ve seen Ethan working hard on writing a sweet story about a boy and his dog. He loves for me to sit near him while he writes and it is so hard for me not to correct his spelling or suggest he use punctuation 😬. But I really don’t want to interrupt his creative flow! So I’ve given him a few tools - a popsicle stick we call “space man” to help him remember to put spaces between his words and a file folder with words that come up frequently in his writing so he can refer to it if he needs spelling help. Like the word, “velociraptor” - hard to spell yet an important character in his story! ✏️ 📓 #homeschool #homeschoolfamily #homeschoollife #homeschoolmom #homeschoolblog #brooklynhomeschoolers #citykids #letthembelittle #preschoolathome #kindergartenathome #earlyeducation #howwehomeschool #learningoutside #montessoriathome #childledlearning #homeschoolcollective #homeeducation #homeeducator #homeschoolfun #homeschoolplanning #learningathome #wildandfreechildren #freetolearn #handsonlearning #nychomeschool

Apparently I’m not the only one busily organizing for the New Year. Lillian sorted the magnatiles by shape, then reorganized them by shape and color and then finally started building. We are slowly getting back into a new rhythm for the new year. As much as I love the holidays I love the calm and cozy quiet of January too. #homeschool #homeschoolfamily #homeschoollife #homeschoolmom #homeschoolblog #brooklynhomeschoolers #citykids #letthembelittle #preschoolathome #kindergartenathome #earlyeducation #howwehomeschool #learningoutside #montessoriathome #childledlearning #homeschoolcollective #homeeducation #homeeducator #homeschoolfun #homeschoolplanning #learningathome #playmatters #wildandfreechildren #freetolearn #handsonlearning #kidswhoexplore #nychomeschool

This big guy is going back to work today after a long time home to celebrate all the holidays! So so grateful for all the time together. 🎶 Back to life, back to reality! 😭 #vacationsover #homeschoolfamily #homeschooldad #citykids

Lots of new Hanukkah books this year as both kids outgrew most of the books we already have. Although check out the bottom row - there were a few they absolutely would not let me pack up or pass on. Their top two favorites were Shmelf the Hanukkah Elf and When Mindy Saved Hanukkah (cute story that is pretty much a Jewish version of The Littles). #hanukkahbooks #hanukkahbooksforkids #raisingreaders #homeschool #homeschoolfamily #homeschoollife #homeschoolmom #homeschoolblog #brooklynhomeschoolers #citykids #letthembelittle #preschoolathome #kindergartenathome #earlyeducation #howwehomeschool #learningoutside #montessoriathome #childledlearning #homeschoolcollective #homeeducation #homeeducator #homeschoolfun #homeschoolplanning #learningathome #wildandfreechildren #freetolearn #handsonlearning #nychomeschool

This is one of their favorite traditions: making cards for our neighbors in the building, “sneaking” downstairs to tape them to their doors, knocking and running away! Sorry/not sorry neighbors! 🚪 🎄 #averybrooklynchristmas #homeschool #homeschoolfamily #homeschoollife #homeschoolmom #homeschoolblog #brooklynhomeschoolers #citykids #letthembelittle #preschoolathome #kindergartenathome #earlyeducation #howwehomeschool #learningoutside #montessoriathome #childledlearning #homeschoolcollective #homeeducation #homeeducator #homeschoolfun #homeschoolplanning #learningathome #playmatters #wildandfreechildren #freetolearn #handsonlearning #nychomeschool

I shared a little of our homeschool craft fair on my stories yesterday but wanted to document it here too. We had so much fun preparing our crafts! We used melt and pour soap to make little unicorn and snowflake shaped soap bars. They were very easy to prepare and the kids loved selling them! 🦄 ❄️ 🧼 #homeschoolhandcraftfair #handcraftfairbk #homeschool #homeschoolfamily #homeschoollife #homeschoolmom #homeschoolblog #brooklynhomeschoolers #citykids #letthembelittle #preschoolathome #kindergartenathome #earlyeducation #howwehomeschool #learningoutside #montessoriathome #childledlearning #homeschoolcollective #homeeducation #homeeducator #homeschoolfun #homeschoolplanning #learningathome #playmatters #wildandfreechildren #freetolearn #handsonlearning #nychomeschool
