but as they haven't...this is something I have linked to before on my own blog but if anyone missed it, here it is again.

Fight World Hunger


clicking on that ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ will take you to
a really neat quiz type game that also has the added bonus of helping to feed REAL people.
WARNING: This game may make you smarter.

It works by you answering multi-choice type questions on a variety of subjects including ...

Chemical Symbols (Basic)
Chemical Symbols (Full List)
ENGLISH
English Grammar
English Vocabulary
GEOGRAPHY
Identify Countries on the Map

...and for each answer you get right, ten grains of rice get donated to the united nations world food program
I know ten grains of rice doesn't sound like much, but this game is surprisingly addictive and it soon starts adding up :) Its cool - check it out

If you can't laugh what can you do?...

I know there's not a lot to laugh about at the moment, but I thought a little laughter can go a long way...

Instructables pumpkins


Yes, that's a pumpkin! Well I was impressed anyway! Whether you 'do' Hallowe'en or not, these are well worth looking at. They're on a site called instructables.com which I just found out about tonight from a friend and which looks to have all sorts of ideas and 'How to's' on just about everything :-)

Reflections on a Home

A time when we are all feeling unsettled, a time when the gov't in their urgency to control everything are attacking our very existence, a time when we all need to focus on what is right for us and our precious babies.
I read a Far Out Crowd blog and it made me cry but it also made me want to fight for what we know is right. I'm sure the author of this article will be happy with me sharing it with you all, please go and have a look at Reflections on a Home.

A bit of autononmous learning from our house

We have only been home edding about 2 years and it is still a big learning curve for all of us. Finding what works is the key and sometimes things are planned and sometimes things are very much spur of the moment. I love the fact the the girls can ber creative when they want to and that the older child can teach the younger child things too.

These are photos DD1 took while teaching her sister about fractions and she decided to turn them into fish.

These are of their lego city they have been creating.
These are the girls price lists from the girls beauty salon they set up last week. I will be kind to myself and our friend Cheryl and not show you the pictures of our makeover by the girls!
