At the start of the week I make this list out here on my blog and spend a few minutes looking up fun things on-line to do. Then throughout the week when we need something fun to do (read: When the kids want to watch TV or play video games and I don't want them to), I get on-line with them and we pull up the post for this week. Then I'm not searching for good videos with them right there begging to watch ones I don't want to waste our time with. At the end of the week I go through and add notes about what we actually did and didn't do for record keeping. Then it gets published. So, I'm using this blog for my own strange on-line record keeping and organizational purposes.
Bird Call: Mourning Dove
Classical Music: Vivaldi Spring and Summer Presto

Constellation: Canis Major - I'm so happy I found this treasure! It's ready to print constellation flashcards!!
Dinosaur: Velociraptor - Read a book from the library
Sea Life: Clam - This was the best video we found: giant clams. Also, this guy is too funny, had to include his video on how to hunt for clams in Florida. Printed out our on-line colored clams!
Fiction Summer Must Reads: James Herriot's, "A Children's Treasury" - WE LOVE THIS!
