The Lord placed home schooling on my heart long before I even thought about getting married! This is record of the Lord's work in our lives and in our home school. Let HIS will be done!

Welcome Sonlight Science K!!*

Squeak's science interest is exploding! Though I kind of figured it would since she loves math - math and science kind of go hand in hand, I didn't think it would be so soon. She has been asking a lot about how things work and what is inside stuff. Squeak has been asking to do experiments and such. Sooooo, I decided to get a well rounded, full science curriculum to use until we start God's Design for Science in 1st grade.

I wanted something cohesive with everything all there for me (not like a science activity book where you put together experiments yourself). I think Sonlight Science has that - books, activity sheets, experiments and supplies - all in one package. I decided on K because it has the experiment kit. I do understand it's considered "advanced" but I'm not worried about following their schedule or if Squeak "gets" 100% of it. It's a filler so even if she gets 50% of it, I'll be happy. It will be a nice introduction.

My plan is to order it soon since we are completing the lap book this week.

*Just a note: Even though I chose Sonlight K Science, I am NOT a fan of Sonlight as a curriculum. When reviewing the reasons NOT to buy a core, too many apply to me!!
