Day 17: Today, I am grateful for the Internet as a Homeschool Resource!
Since Thanksgiving is upon us and my girls are getting older, and I wanted to delve into this topic on a deeper level. But being overseas, I’m pretty limited by what I can find, since I didn’t plan ahead and order anything! I’m so thankful that we have the Internet, where I can collecting videos/movies, etc that I am planning to have them watch – for a bit of a change of pace.
