Teaching Prepping To Children

 

I was sent this book Prepper Pete Prepares to read and review.  I love it. My Little Man loved it a lot. Great way to teach a child about prepping and why to be prepared without scaring them! My son has made me read this to him everyday since we received it.

It being about an ant that decides that his family should be better prepared for any type of emergency really makes it enjoyable for kids while teaching them. Giving the reasons to prep in a way that kids understand. 

This would make a great Christmas gift to give the kids in your life. Let them know that we can prepare for bad times and not be scared. This is the original prepper book for kids.  I really think that books like this , for kids, are out just in time. Kids need to know that bad things can happen , but that you can be prepared and don't have to be scared or worried. This book tells them about the times and how to prepare without frightening them. 

Great book!

Always Prepared!

Right now our family is really strapped for cash, but I have to say - our food storage is better than I thought it would have been in an emergency. Little Man has been on me for 2 days to make some kind of cookies! But, out of margarine and do not want to use peanut butter that we all eat on toast for cookies. So, I dug deeper into the "stores" and got the Margarine Powder and Peanut Butter Powder and baked some pretty good peanut butter cookies. A much needed treat on a day that had started out not too good. Having a food stockpile has turned out to be the best thing that we have ever done for our family. By the Grace of God we are going to make it through the stuff that is going on in our family now.

Homeschool Minute - Lifecycle of a Frog

 

We had fun yesterday using our Insect Lore Frog Life Cycle Stages to learn about the life cycle of a frog. 

I had printed off a lifecycle sheet to use and it helped with having the actual frog life cycle to hold in hand and see it in "real-life". 

Little Man has been playing with them, too. Talking about them and has really gotten it too where he is saying them off without any help and really knows it now. Having a tool to hold in your hand really helps with learning. Insect Lore has all of the bugs too learn their life cycle! Great learning experience.
