Christmas & Winter

December was a very laid back month as far as homeschooling. With a brand new baby sister to watch and be entertained by, Carlee was not too bothered by taking a break. We did a lot of reading Christmas and winter themed books, though. We mainly focused on learning about the religious aspect of Christmas, and understanding that we are celebrating Jesus' birth. My favorite book to read to Carlee on that topic, was The First Christmas by Carol Heyer. The illustrations are gorgeous, and Carlee followed the story easily. We also did a lot of Christmas related crafts and baking.

Next month we are going to continue learning about winter, since we only briefly talked about it.
