Great Projects
Yes.
I am.
I am THAT Mom.
The one that let’s her kids follow every rabbit trail they can come up.
The one that encourages their creativity.
The one that allows them to turn couches around, build tents in the living room and run the snow barefoot because they want to see what it feels like.
So while studying meteorology it only made sense to let them create their own weather show.
I wanted to embed a video but I can’t seem to get it to work, you can you can see the video here on my page)
So yes, I am THAT Mom. And I am so glad I am.
My point is this: Be THAT Mom. Encourage their imaginations. Let them explore and get dirty and make messes. Most of them clean up fairly easily unless of course, someone decides to dig a hole through a wall to their secret lab…

I am THAT mom, too! I’m glad there are a few of us still out there. I’ve been saddened by the pressure put on us homeschool moms over the past few years to make academic geniuses out of our children rather than let them grow naturally to have a real love of learning.
