FUN SUMMER HOMESCHOOLING IDEAS 🥳🤩🥳- Here are some ideas for fun learning explorations over the summer!

• OUTDOOR ADVENTURES, including exploring and learning about local ecosystems, developing swimming proficiency, garden-to-table vegetable growing, u-pick summer fruits, camping and survival skills, stargazing, and raising critters (such as tadpoles and caterpillars)

• FOCUS ON THE ARTS, including classical music explorations, learning about art and artists, and diving into Shakespeare through story books and on-stage videos

• CULTURAL EXPLORATIONS, including taking kids on a world trip without leaving home (through books, music, and foods from different countries), reading Tuttle Twins books (which teach about into freedom, liberty, economics, finances and government), and focusing on learning a foreign language all together with books, music, movies, and more

😍😍😍ROADRUNNER HOMESCHOOLERS TALENT SHOW: Homeschool groups thrive because of the passions of individual families. This week, we had an amazing talent show that was organized by a mom-and-dad who used to dance competitively. Not only did they organize this talent show, they also gave 6 weeks of free swing dance lessons to the kids and choreographed a routine for the finale.

This was the best entertainment I've had in a long time. Music, dancing, art, hula hooping, acro-yoga, comedy, and more! My two teens, Alina and Ian, played a clarinet-and-flute duet by Handel and were also part of the choreographed swing dance.

👦👦👦Photographic evidence that HOMEOPATHY WORKS! This was a case I treated over 10 years ago in the early years of my homeopathic practice.

More details on the overall case, remedies, and healing are here 👇👇👇: https://www.nourishedandnurturedlife.com/post/photographic-evidence-that-homeopathy-works

🥒🫑🥒🫑PROBIOTIC RANCH DRESSING AND DIP: Raw milk kefir adds wonderful flavor and a good dose of healthy probiotics to this ranch dressing recipe:

***1 cup full-fat sour cream
***1/2 cup raw milk kefir (buttermilk or plain whole milk yogurt could be substituted, but milk kefir gives the best flavor and nutrition)
***1 Tb fresh lemon juice (a lemon reamer works great for getting more juice from every lemon)
***1 med garlic clove, pressed (or substitute 1/4 tsp garlic powder)
***1/2 tsp dried parsley
***1/2 tsp onion powder
***3/4 tsp fine-ground celtic sea salt
***1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
***1/4 tsp dried dill

Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl or 2-cup measuring cup. (Putting all of the ingredients into a 2-cup measuring cup saves on having to dirty many different measuring cups.) Whisk or stir well to combine.

🍭🍭🍭FOOD DYE BANS ARE LONG OVERDUE: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is taking action to ban the use of synthetic food dyes, including Red Dye 3, Yellow Dye 5, Blue Dye 1, and others. This is long overdue. Harms of food dyes have been known for decades, yet the FDA has turned a blind eye.

😳😳😳INCREASED CANCER RISK IN CHILDREN EXPOSED TO CT SCANS: "Overall cancer incidence was 24% greater for exposed than for unexposed people...

"[incidence] increased significantly for many types of solid cancer (digestive organs, melanoma, soft tissue, female genital, urinary tract, brain, and thyroid); leukaemia, myelodysplasia, and some other lymphoid cancers. There was an excess of 608 cancers in people exposed to CT scans (147 brain, 356 other solid, 48 leukaemia or myelodysplasia, and 57 other lymphoid)...

"The increased incidence of cancer after CT scan exposure in this cohort was mostly due to irradiation."

🥚🍞🥛CINNAMON RAISIN BAKED FRENCH TOAST: Here's how to turn that sourdough or sprouted bread into a protein-packed breakfast! This recipe boosts nutrition with:
• sourdough/sprouted bread 🍞🍞🍞- souring or sprouting grains works to neutralize the phytic acid antinutrient (which is present in all grains), thereby making the nutrients in the bread more able to be utilized by the body
• 10 pastured eggs (!!) 🥚🥚🥚 - lots of protein, healthy fats, Vitamins A & D, iron, and more
• grassfed butter and milk 🧈🧈🧈- healthy fats and protein, plus fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K2

The flavor of this recipe is enhanced with yummy cinnamon, vanilla, raisins, and pecans. My kids and I nosh on this Baked French Toast recipe when I make it on the weekend, and then the leftovers taste great after a simple re-heat in the toaster oven on weekdays.

🫐🥕🫑🥒SNACKING RULES: Years ago, my kids often wouldn't eat well at mealtime because they snacked too much in between meals. Here are the rules I implemented to make sure they'd be hungry and ready to eat nourishing, home-cooked foods:

RULE #1: Only fruits and veggies are allowed as snacks between meals.

RULE #2: If a child does not finish their meal, they may not have any snacks or other foods until the next mealtime.

🐓👫🐥NEW ROOF FOR OUR CHICKEN COOP: Because of water and wind damage, our chicken coop needed a new roof. Full family teamwork was required for this one, and we learned a lot in cutting and installing new plywood and tar paper, topped with corrugated metal. This ended up being a bigger job than anticipated 😅, but we got it done!

😢😡🤗HOMEOPATHY CAN HELP THE BODY REBALANCE IN THE WAKE OF EMOTIONAL STRESSES. Using homeopathic remedies to treat emotional stress not only helps you move through the emotions and regain balance quickly, it also helps prevent acute emotional stresses from contributing to long-term chronic issues. Here are 3 homeopathics to help with emotional stress.

1. Ignatia amara for Grief, Disappointment, Heartbreak, and Bad News
2. Aconitum napellus for Fright and Fear of Death
3. Staphysagria for Rudeness, Insults, and Bullying

🫛🥕🥄HOMEMADE HEALTHIER HUMMUS! Yummy for dipping veggies or chips, spreading onto sandwiches, mixing with salsa and sour cream, or even by the spoonful. My hummus recipe begins with soaking dried chickpeas in an acidic medium overnight. This important step reduces the phytic acid antinutrient that is naturally present in grains and legumes.

😳😳😳NM SCHOOLS: BEHAVIOR ISSUES, INCLUSION PROBLEMS, TEACHER BURNOUT, AND OTHER OPTIONS: I organize a statewide working group of 200+ concerned teachers and school personnel. NM is ranked last in the Nation for education and we are advocating towards better outcomes.

Recently, our group met to discuss behavior issues and teacher burnout in schools. Attendees from Albuquerque, Deming, Farmington, Las Cruces, and Santa Fe shared info about the following issues and potential solutions.

• "inclusion" and violence in the classroom
• too much focus on academics in lower grades
• teachers being stretched too thinly
• teacher burnout
• big-picture view of Federal guidance that likely contributed to the lack of discipline in schools
• charter schools and homeschooling options

SOURDOUGH EINKORN WAFFLES 🧇🧇🧇 - These are seriously The.Best.Waffles.Ever. And guess what? This waffle recipe is also healthier because:
• It's sourdough, which means that the flour in this recipe is more digestible and more nutritious.
• It's made with Einkorn ancient wheat, so it has more protein, less gluten, and more nutrition than modern wheat.
• It contains no sweeteners, and the waffles are super yummy even just topped with butter.
• The sourdough combined with baking powder gives these waffles a fantastic rise, so they're nice and fluffy.

😍🤩😍COMMUNITY SPELLING BEE SUCCESS! Yesterday, I conducted our once-a-semester, ALL-AGES spelling bee for the Roadrunner Homeschoolers group. 25+ kids and parents participated in the fun! It's so sweet to watch the kids improve every semester as the years go by. 🥳🥳🥳

Kids from K-12 get to choose which word list to practice ahead of time and then have a fun spell-off against their friends and peers. It all culminates with a spell-off by the parents, with the kids quizzing us on random hard words from the dictionary. This time, one of the teens was ready to compete against the adults 💪💪 💪, and she did great! So fun!

👩‍🦰👧👦TEACHING ELEMENTARY MATH WITHOUT A FORMAL CURRICULUM+ 16 FUN GAMES FOR ELEMENTARY MATH - We started homeschool kindergarten using the typical math education methods such as textbooks, workbooks, and flash cards. By halfway through 1st grade, my daughter was DREADING MATH 😔😔😔. This led me to an epiphany about the fact that my schooling methods were DETRIMENTAL to teaching my daughter to love learning.

I FOUND A BETTER WAY TO TEACH MATH 🎯🎯🎯, focusing on games, read-alouds, and everyday math. These three approaches became the basis for successful elementary math studies with both my daughter and her little brother. Here are all the details of how to make this work, plus a list of 16 fun games 🎲♟🎲 for elementary math 👇👇👇:
