Well it has taken us a while to get back into our routine after the holidays. It’s been a particularly slow go due to illness. But inspired by Mary Ellen’s posts (here and here) that I had saved in Bloglines, we are back into our “morning basket routine”. This routine includes reading aloud to the three younger children while they draw, hand sew, etc. I’ve added a sidebar with our current reading selections which include poetry, religion (basic cathecism), saints, and literature. It is a great way to start our homeschooling day after breakfast, chores, and daily mass. If you have any book suggestions, I’d love to hear them.
