Zoe had a Little House cookbok and since the Little House series is one of her favorites still, she chose to pick several recipes out of it to share. She made hardtack, johnny cakes, apple turnovers and strawberry jam. I didn’t try the hardtack or johnny cakes but the turnovers and jam were delicious.
Ace and Liam made a volcano! Mark had fun with this one. Ace researched Mt. Vesuvius and Pompeii and Liam did research on Mount St. Helen’s. Big props to Storm the Castle. If you want to find any “crafts” boy related (think trebuchet, catapult, hidden blade…you know weapons crafts), this site is definitely the place to go.
Josiah decided to showcase Fifi the Rabbit. We have a book on rabbits and Josiah found a lot of useful information in it, however, he can’t type and to write it all up would have taken quite a bit of time. So, two days before the fair, I realized that doing a lapbook would work much better. Professor Google to the rescue! With lapbook located and clock ticking Josiah went to work. He was very diligent and he loved showing off our rabbit. It’s a Lion’s head rabbit that friends gave us when they realized their new yard was too small to accommodate her.
