Welcome

This blog started out as an exploration of field trips by grade level which a family can take to enrich their child's school curriculum. I originally started this for Charter School families, or any family, wanting to supplement with fun family field trips. Since then we have decided to home school, so the bent and flavor has changed. I will still post field trips, but also home school related posts. We have four kids who span 8 years. Two high school and two elementary. Our elementary kids are home schooled.

What's In the Bible?

Have you seen the video series called What's in the Bible? Its produced by Phil Viscer who created Veggie Tales. The purpose is to give kids an overview of the Bible from start to finish and explain why we believe what we do and what the Bible is. Not just to teach the stories but what is the Bible anyway.
Well, we picked up a few from the library just to check them out. My boys are 9 so I thought they may be a little young. NO WAY, they LOVE them!!!!!! So, we have been using them for our Bible lessons and have three more videos to go. We even watched Why do we call it Christmas? It also was great.
My boys are big fact guys so all the facts and details they give are really helpful and give us lots to discuss afterwards. Plus the catchy tunes and jokes they repeat all day.
Get one and watch it with your kids and see what you think. I think they are awesome.
I just found this site that uses this series in their bible curriculum. Thinking Kids Blog. Looks promising.
