School Journal - Garden and Flowers

If there is one thing Miss Betty is into right now, it's flowers. So armed with some tools from Homeschool Creations' garden pack and 2 Teaching Mommies Flower Unit , we had some big school fun that was just perfect!

I hot glued some pattern cards to popsicle sticks so the flowers would make a garden when she pushed them into the foam. She loved this!

She really enjoyed using a spikey ball dipped in paint to create flowers. She used green glitter glue for stems and leaves.



Of course, the highlight of garden schooling was creating her very own flower garden to take care of. She and her daddy planted her rainbow garden together.

School Journal - Philbrook Museum Tour

I'm about a month behind on posting pics, but we had a great tour in April at the Philbrook and the gardens were so gorgeous that I just have to share.







The kids enjoyed the hidden treasures that the garden offers for the seekers and I got a couple of shots of all the kids (which rarely ever happens). They were also impressed that I had my bridal protraits done here oh so many years ago.
