24.01.2022 My mudroom dreams . #Repost @mixedbagofbeautiful with @get_repost ... They may have hated doing it but the kids cleaned out their lockers for the year!! I definitely wont find mouldy lunchboxes in the new year. This room is perfectly situated off our main living area. It’s the most used room in the house so it needs to function well. I believe that if something has a place it will never get lost, we don’t often lose things in this house!!! #mudroom #organisation #organisedspaces #largefamilies #largefamilyliving #largefamilylife #kmarthack #kmartstyling #ikeahack #ikeahacks #kmarthacks #kmartmum See more
21.01.2022 The current pandemic has affected everybody - one way or another. Even though we don’t always see it, theres is hope and a positive out of every situation. 13 hours of canning gave us 46 more jars for the larder. With my husband losing his job, growing our own food has taken on a whole new meaning. It seems like the last 18 years of learning to garden, farm, homestead ~ whatever you want to call it has finally paid off so to speak ~ I don’t know what the future holds but I do know two things without a shadow of a doubt: first we won’t starve and the second and most important the Lord is going to take care of us. #largefamiliesau #largefamiliesaustralia #coronacooking #garden #gardener #gardening #kitchengarden #growyourownfood #growyourown #love #family #largefamily #largefamilylife #countrylife

11.01.2022 How many pizzas does your family go through??? Pizza night at our house! This means I made 14 pizzas. Four of them are dairy free and ten mozzarella yummies. . . .... With our large family plus an extra kiddo and two extra adults a lot of food gets eaten. Sausage, lamb burger, pepperoni, Canadian bacon, add on onions, peppers, and olives. See more
09.01.2022 Homeschooling set up goals @kate.brohaha So let’s talk the basics: Reading + Math. When we were just getting started homeschooling our oldest (Hayden, 6 years ago) I found a iPad app called ReadingEggs (which shares a site MathSeeds.) Its designed for ages 3 through 3rd grade... I was a little unsure of it at first, because it seemingly started with random letters and concepts. However, after several months I could see all those lessons clicked and Hayden was starting to... actually read! I used @readingeggs as our Primary reading and math curriculum and bought a couple of @abekahomeschool workbooks for her grade level to act as physical supplements (I wanted her used to working through problems on paper as well.) I also discovered that ReadingEggs & MathSeeds have printable homeschool worksheets designed for homeschool families! These days we mostly use @thegoodandthebeautiful for our curriculum (Hayden still does the Abeka math workbooks), but ReadingEggs & MathSeeds remain a big part of our education for all the kids! What I think makes it so successful, is how they approach a lesson by presenting a concept in several different ways and learning styles, so that if one way doesn’t click, another one will! RE often offers free trials and they have multi-sibling discounts (we have to call in for our homeschool discount, but it’s worth it!) In addition to RE & MS, I’ve been loving using The Good & The Beautiful language and math (+ other subjects) with my younger kiddos. This curriculum is so beautiful and engaging, the kids just love doing their lessons (most days ) with it!! I’ll talk more about them in a future post See more
