October is here and autumn is beginning to pick up momentum. Everywhere we look deciduous trees are giving us the most fabulous display.

Simple Schooling :: Autumn Days Review
Well, autumn is upon us! Trees have been changing color since late August here in my bit of England. I do LOVE this season, as do many others I know.

Little House in the Big Woods Lapbook
When we first started homeschooling eight years ago, the Little House series was number one on our list for our read aloud time. After the first few chapters of the first book we were all hooked!
