3D Geometry
When I came across these 3D shape books at our local library, of course I grabbed every last one of them! I left not a single one for anyone else to enjoy for the nexts 2 weeks (our standard loan time) plus the 5 renewals I will likely hoard them for. LOL.

Spatial Skills are Crucial for Success in Math
Spatial reasoning... Spatial skills... Spatial thinking... Spatial analysis... Spatial awareness... All of it is essentially the understanding of the location and dimension of objects. It is also how objects/items are connected or related to each other.

What's in a Name?
What’s in a name? Well, for our girls there is quite a lot of meaning and intent behind their names. They were chosen with incredible love in our hearts, honour for our loved ones and a reverence for God who has blessed us with these two beautiful babes!

The Legend of the Three Trees
With Easter around the corner, I wanted to share this sweet story I recently happened upon! If you haven't read this tale before, you're not alone because I hadn't heard of it myself. I had done a search online for Christian Easter Books and someone else had recommended it on their blog of books, much like I’m doing now!

Numeracy Activities for Easter
What we are all in need of right now is a splash of colour! And you're in luck, I have that here for you! If you're like me and you live in a snowy northern country, you've been staring at a pretty bleak and bland landscape for the last few months. I've been desperate to see SOME semblance of spring sprouting somewhere. Alas, it's been snow, cold, and clouds... and then more snow and more cold and more clouds.

Bridging the Million Word GapTop Story - March 2022
We know reading to children is vitally important. We have all been told that we must read to our little ones. Whether we were told by our physicians, pediatricians, teachers, other parents, our own parents, or we read it in every baby book or blog post, we know reading is important. Now here's what I want you to know... (especially before you read the rest of this article) ...it is better to begin reading late than to not begin at all.
