We slowed it down last week and already I see resettling. It is good. I also have been intentionally setting aside time for entertainment. I tend to multitask everything and forget to just let myself enjoy something on it's own, for me. We went to the local Lakeshore Learning store and picked up a few refresher books.

We did a Dosuem play-date and spent the weekend at home.These are a few of our favorite winter/arctic books this month.

 The story- The mitten and morning rhythm songs and poems

the kids had alot of fun with this.

 I am continually amazed at how much we are learning from books. 6 months ago, I thought people slightly insane for basing their childrens' education on library books alone. I get it now. I do. Also, I am glad we all love to read. I am getting an education along side of them :) We are heading to the Netherlands next month for our school. We have started this week off, with our Monday at home and it is still my favorite day of the week. I changed the living room around and the kids enjoyed the benefits of a larger living room playspace.
