ANGELA WHITE // UNSCHOOLING

// From Kris: I met Angela at a homeschool conference that we both presented at last year and was charmed by her relaxed nature and ability to totally trust her children in their learning process, as well as her deep respect for them as individuals. I think I’d love to be a child growing up in her home!

Tell us about yourself…

My name is Angela White. I am a homeschooling mom to 4 beautiful children; Gavin (11), Greysen (7), Addie (5) and Gabriel (3). We homeschool as a way of life. I co-parent with my loving husband, Michael. I truly believe in giving children the freedom to choose their own passions while being fully present to support their blossoming personalities and skill sets.

What method of homeschooling do you practice?

Unschooling.

Do you use a curriculum? If so, which one?

We use curriculum when the need and desire in the child arises. We have used math-u-see, for example, when someone plays incessantly with numbers and wants to know how they work. We have also used The Reading Eggs App when a child has had a keen interest in learning to read.

Otherwise, we use a variety of books and resources. We love doing Pinterest projects, being outdoors, playing games and going on field trips.

Describe a typical homeschool day for your family. Or, as you might have been asked – What do you do all day?

All four children have different sleep and wake times. We try to accommodate them all while still getting out in the community. Some regular events we have in our schedule include a yoga morning, a baking day, board games, x-country skiing, snowshoeing, and skating. In the community we have a bookclub, a homeschool group and the two older boys play on hockey teams. We strive to read together daily, and make time for everyone’s projects at least three days a week.

Addie loves art and we’ve created an art room for her. The boys day revolves around hockey, hockey stats, hockey cards etc. Gabriel is into trains and builds massive tracks around the house. Mostly, they play all day together and laugh and run and daydream and create. I try to stay out of the way, be supportive if they need something while aiming for special time with each of them on a daily basis.

What is your favourite homeschooling resource – book, website, etc.?

The great group of friends from our co-op keeps me going. I also enjoy TUC Talks; JUAL (Journal of Unschooling and Alternative Learning); Sandra Dodd’s Big Book of Unschooling.

Greatest joy in homeschooling (can be broad or a specific moment)?

When I sit quietly in the living room with a mug of tea and listen to the laughter and games being created and played out. I am overwhelmed with a sense of awe at their creations and their relationships with one another. We truly have a solid foundation and I feel in these moments that we are doing right by our children.

Greatest struggle with homeschooling (can be broad or a specific moment)?

Earlier in our journey, I struggled with “letting go” and trusting in my children to know what they need. I am better at this now and trust the process and them.

How to you manage homeschooling and regular household stuff? Any awesome tips?

I have a personal cleaning schedule and the children have chores on certain days. It doesn’t have to be done at a certain time, but it does need to get done. For example, Mondays the kids all clean, dust, vacuum their room and change bedsheets. Some kids do it first thing to get it over with and others drag it out till supper. We have lots of conversations together about what needs to get done schedule wise and what we WANT to do and we balance it from there. Everyone’s opinion matters.

If you’re new to homeschooling – what would you like to ask more experienced homeschool parents? If you’re a veteran, what nugget of wisdom can you offer to those starting out?

Trust your children. Support them as much as you are possibly able. Give structure when needed with a long rope of freedom. Ensure they are accountable for their actions, but let them really live life and make mistakes.

Un-Excellent Used Condition

Last week included…

// Mugs of healing teas for a cold in the home

// Kids devouring homemade sun-dried tomato hummus

// Word-family related crafting

// Playing in the snow

And… a boy who found an umbrella and was so adorable sitting on his own, making up stories, I couldn’t say “no open umbrellas in the house.” No regrets, even though said umbrella is now in Un-Excellent Used Condition (a condition which has a certain excellence of its own). Really, having a beautiful, bright yellow umbrella and keeping it tucked away and closed up is sort of akin to a keep off the grass sign, right?

Having a house full of perfect, un-touched items doesn’t make it onto my bucket list. In fact, I want those sweet hands to touch and explore – to learn, to play, to experience. Experience the wool fibres of the area rug, the texture of various fabrics on the cushions, the cold of the icy window, the soft yet prickly grass underfoot, and the feel of a bright yellow umbrella spinning in his hands.

Oh, and yes. Following along on this thread of actually using and enjoying the things in our life – we still have our Christmas tree up! We got it late, just a few days before Christmas and we want to enjoy it as long as possible, seeing as it is a real tree, grown and cared for by a lovely couple here in Manitoba. We have plans to use it for some DIY projects once we take down the decorations.

Day in a Homeschool Life // Rhonda Cattani

This post is part of a series called Day in a Homeschool Life. This community of homeschoolers would love to hear from you about your typical learning day and how your homeschool family rolls. Head over to the Day in a Homeschool Life page for submission guidelines. It’s super easy and stress-free. Come on over and help us build community so we can all feel a little more connected on this journey!

RHONDA CATTANI // ECLECTIC & COMMUNITY-BASED

Tell us about yourself…

Hello! My name is Rhonda Cattani. I am blessed to have an amazing hubster, Brennan, and together we have 4 monkeys – Caden (8), Annabelle (6), Coralise (4), and Jonathan (21 months). We believe that every part of our life story whispers the name of Jesus, and for this reason, we have dedicated our lives to sharing that. Brennan, my husband, is the director of Camp Cedarwood where we have the opportunity to discuss with teens if and how they might see that in their own stories. As well, we are a part of starting a new church, Awaken Church, where we invite others to consider how their life might “wake up”. Homeschooling is a lovely part of our community-based life style.

What method of homeschooling do you practice?

To be honest, I don’t really know. I am a structured person, slightly type A (or maybe a little more than slightly), so I need books that direct me but I also like the freedom to throw in anything my kids are curious about.

Do you use a curriculum? If so, which one?

I follow A Well Trained Mind loosely. We use Math U See, All About Spelling, Story of the World, Donna Ward for geography, First Language Lessons, and a mish-mash of God’s Design and other things for science. We also always have lots and lots of library books. I will also throw in handwriting practice, art or crafts, and topical features whenever the desire arises.

Describe a typical homeschool day for your family. Or, as you might have been asked – What do you do all day?

I am a night owl and my husband is the early bird, so he will get up with the monkeys. By the time I get up they have already eaten breakfast so I get them dressed and then we start school. I had a really great school experience and wanted to encourage elements like the singing of O’Canada and the Lord’s prayer into the beginning of our day. Then, we do our Bible reading and then math, reading and the writing portions of the day so that they can get done when the focus is the strongest.

We do a lot of reading together. We regularly have the maximum allotted books from the library, so every day we set time for reading. Often the afternoon is when we will do science, geography, and history followed by play, lego building, crafty projects (my Annabelle’s favourite), and pretty much anything we can come up with! On Wednesdays the kids are in choir and on Thursdays they do piano. On those days, the only “book” work we really do is math. Otherwise, we have friend visits, library time, and other field trips we want to do.

What is your favourite homeschooling resource – book, website, etc.?

I have found that my best way to learn is being in community with others. Chatting with moms, reading blogs (like this one..wink, wink), basically learning from others experiences! I joke with a dear friend and fellow homeschooler, that since she is the reader, I will just pick her brain about what she has read and then figure out what I’m doing from there. The best resource is someone who has learned a skill/idea/plan I don’t have.

Greatest joy in homeschooling (can be broad or a specific moment)?

Realizing that I am not failing my children by being their teacher!! I have struggled with the books/structure vs play/unstructured elements as I really am that type A person who needs structure to feel like I have been productive and progressing. And then, that moment when my boy reads a chapter book with no assistance or my girl answers a question regarding a subject that we had talked about days before…it really blows my mind!

My absolute favourite thing, though, is our talks about life, people, the world, and their understanding of Jesus. I love that their education can first be compassion, generosity, service and love. That they can learn to interact with the world around them and make decisions based on these virtues and most importantly, the act of a Creator who died for his creation.

Greatest struggle with homeschooling (can be broad or a specific moment)?

As I mentioned a bit above, it’s the wondering if they are learning enough. I hear the comments of naysayers rolling around in my mind and the assumed thoughts of someone who hears that I am homeschooling and I doubt myself. Am I covering everything I should? Are we doing enough science/art/geography…whatever?!? And of course, the ever present “mom-comparison” now coming out as the “homeschooling-mom-comparison”. I don’t do THAT! What?!? You do HOW much?!? I’ve come to realize that the ideal of homeschooling has actually hurt me by not leaving room for grace…for my kids AND for me. I feel like I succeed when I let go of the possibility of perfection and embrace the grace and love that I see in my and my children’s imperfection. When I embrace the fact that my daughter struggles with reading or my son struggles with math, then I can embrace that I am a homeschooler who can work through these as fast or slow as they need. And then, I can encourage them, that they WILL get it. And I really believe it!

How to you manage homeschooling and regular household stuff? Any awesome tips?

I wish I was better at this, to be honest! I have been meaning to create a schedule for my kids as they do partake in things like gathering garbages, sorting laundry, and dusting, but it would be nice to have something daily.

If you’re new to homeschooling – what would you like to ask more experienced homeschool parents? If you’re a veteran, what nugget of wisdom can you offer to those starting out?

I’ve only been homeschooling now for 2 years, and so I would love to have suggestions on chore charts and such. But I would also say to someone starting out – find your groove – whatever philosophy or style that may be – and enjoy it! Even the moments that you find the most frustrating can be teaching moments – for you AND your kids!

Holiday Eggnog Recipe + Roundup

Personally, I’ve never been a fan of eggnog. I think it has everything to do with glugging down raw eggs as a form of enjoyment. Our 14 year old, however, loves the stuff. He can’t get enough. He can’t get enough of the cartons of sugary, yellow food dye saturated beverage that tries to pass itself off as eggnog. Ever heard this one? I was reminded of it when eggnog came up this year:

“There’s only one thing I hate more than lying, skim milk, which is water that’s lying about being milk.” – Ron Swanson Tweet This

So, Brandon and I teamed up to make our first annual batch of homemade eggnog. I’ll share the recipe we ended up using, with a few upgrades and tweaks. Needless to say, based on the quote above, it had a lot of whole milk and cream. It was crazy good, even for someone who usually doesn’t like eggnog. At the bottom of the post, you’ll find a list of the handful of recipes that were contenders in case you like the ingredients or method of any one of them better!

BRANDON’S HOLIDAY EGGNOG
(based on recipe by The Merry Thought – see below)

6 whole eggs (some prefer separating, but this is simpler and you don’t have to figure out what to do with a half dozen whites)
1/2 cup panela, sucanat or organic cane sugar
1/8 tsp pink himalayan sea salt
2 cups whole milk
2 1/2 cups whipping cream
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tbsp vanilla
2 egg whites
maple syrup

1. In a mixing bowl combine the 6 eggs, sugar, and salt and mix well.

2. Gently heat the milk, 2 cups of the whipping cream, and nutmeg over low heat.

3. Very slowly add about 1 cup of the heated mixture into the egg mixture, in a slow, thin stream, whisking to incorporate so that the eggs don’t scramble.

4. Pour the egg mixture into the heated cream mixture. Again, whisk as you go to help prevent lumps, until the mixture thickens, which should be about 5 minutes.

5. Remove from heat. Strain through a mesh sieve into a tupperware or pyrex dish that has a lid. Cool.

6. While the mixture cools, beat the egg whites to soft peaks and also beat the whipping cream to soft peaks in a separate bowl.

7. Add the vanilla and 1/4 tsp of nutmeg and incorporate.

8. Fold in the egg whites and whipping cream.

9. Add up to 1/4 cup maple syrup to taste if it isn’t sweet enough as is (we were competing with store bought eggnog for a teen, so ours was fairly sweet!)

10. Cover and chill in the fridge for a couple hours or over night. Mix again before serving.

THE LIST

Winner:

Gently Cooked & Rich // The Merry Thought

Contenders:

Raw // Nourishing Joy

With Booze // Will Cook for Friends

Super Simple // Clean – Lusa Organics

Christmas Moments 2014

I hope that each of you had a wonderful holiday filled with peace, joy and love. That you’re surrounded with community. That you would experience what in German is called Gemütlichkeit, and in Swedish, Mysig. Wikipedia explains the first word as:

“A space or situation that is warm and cozy, that induces a cheerful mood and peace of mind, without need to hurry or worry…”

Our Christmas celebration really reflects this idea and I love our Slow Christmas traditions. The kids wake to mama-made PJ pants outside their doors, read a verse, and come down to open stockings. We make a waffle breakfast and then throughout the day open gifts until dinner time. Each of the gifts (four from us, and homemade gifts from one another) are savored for a while before we move on. The kids play mini sticks, read stories, and we just are together with no need to hurry or worry.

For great recipes and craft ideas to really honor the life of your Christmas tree, check out Repurposing Your Real Tree.

Looking for ways to get your kids more involved in the kitchen, but you’re not sure where to being? Our Tiny Peasant Pantry package is a full program that outlines age-appropriate kitchen tasks for kids, as well as a cooking, baking, from-scratch, and healing tea learning program. For the parents, we’ve included our full set of menu planning resources that will save time, money and your sanity!

Advent Week 4 :: The Light of Humankind

This post is a part of our Tiny Advent series. All of the posts are housed over on this page for your convenience. We hope you follow along and enjoy the series.

Welcome! Each week’s post contains the following:

// Family Discussion Points // Poster // Memory Verse // Centerpiece Decorating
// Crafts //Gift, Acvitity & Act of Kindness Ideas

To see our advent calendar tutorial and download our gift/experience/acts of kindness lists, head over here.

THE FOURTH LIGHT OF ADVENT

The fourth light of Advent is the light of humankind– The light of hope that we may learn to love and understand.

DISCUSSION

As we light the fourth candle on our Advent centrepiece, and add little photos of friends and family (What will you add? Share in the comments!), we will think of the light of humankind. What light does this, the human kingdom, offer up? How might people have participated in the journey of a father and mother with child?

Brainstorm with your family. Some things we thought up:

// May have provided companionship, nourishment, etc. along the way.

// They would have celebrated and shared the good news!

// They would have participated in inner preparation. If you haven’t checked them out yet, both We Will Wait and the 28 Day Inner Winter Celebration are wonderful guides to prepare the heart. Many people would have celebrated and shared the news!

POSTER

Print out this free 8.5 x 11 Fourth Light of Advent Poster to rest on your mantle, piano, or hang on your wall, to remind you to think of these things this week. There are three more to add to your display over the coming weeks.

MEMORY VERSE

Those who wish to add on some verses, you can download and print our Memory Verse Cards. Each week has one simple verse related to the week’s light. The verses were picked by the lovely Heather of heatherboersma.com, who is offering her own amazing Advent series for grown-ups called We Will Wait. Just cut out the cards, and work on the Week 4: Light of Humankind card.

CRAFTS, GIFTS & ACTIVITIES

Below are some of the ways that we will be exploring the human kingdom in our home this week, in addition to some of the other Advent ideas mentioned in the first post in this series.

ADVENT CENTERPIECE

For this fourth week, we add little cutout photos of friends and family to our centrepiece, along with the shells, stones, plants, and feathers. My husband was a little uncertain of what to think when he found a bunch of friend and family photos from year’s past lying on the counter with faces cut out – until he saw our centerpiece! We also add Mary and Joseph to the nativity scene – and baby Jesus (on Christmas eve while the kids are sleeping)!

ADVENT CRAFT/RECIPE – HUMANKIND

1. Homemade Fudge to Gift

Try making this fudge, using fair trade chocolate and sharing it with others in the spirit of giving! Get the recipe here.

2. Write a Letter

Grab some lovely pens, paper, an envelope and a stamp and write a letter to a friend or family member. This often forgotten practice is a great way to connect with others in a special way. And who doesn’t love getting mail? Check out our letter-writing resources for some inspiration!

3. Give warmth.

Knit ear warmer or scarves to hang on trees for adults and children who are on the streets and in need of some warmth – physically and emotionally.

ADVENT WEEK 3: GIFTS & ACTS of KINDNESS

These are the items that are in our sock advent calendar – so some items will actually be in the socks. The others will be little notes that might lead the kids to find the supplies for the craft, or just telling them what we’ll be making for that day.

Gifts:

1. Book about fair trade, such as Roses for Isabella or Think Fair Trade First.

2. Fair trade chocolate – we like these Cocoa Camino Mini chocolates – they are just perfect for leaving two or three on someone’s desk or to gift in other creative ways as acts of kindness.

3. A note with a dollar amount that the kids can donate to an organization of their choice that helps people in need. Our kids love looking through online catalogues to choose what to spend their money on – animals, school supplies, sporting goods, trees, medicine, etc. This year, they might choose to donate the funds to the Dressember campaign. Note that this doesn’t have to be a large amount of money. Even $10 can help, and they can also choose to pool their funds to get something bigger.

Activities:

1. Visit Ten Thousand Villages or another fair trade shop to select a fair trade ornament and learn more about their products.

2. Make something to give away, with the fair trade chocolate. Try this amazingly simple and delicious fudge.

3. Watch a documentary about fair trade chocolate – check out the documentary Nothing Like Chocolate

Acts of Kindness:

1. Give fair trade chocolates to strangers and neighbours.
2. Acts of Kindness – add light to the lives of others through small acts of kindness – shovel a walk, bring over a meal, leave a couple quarters taped to a phone booth or dollars taped to the bus shelter (with a note), etc.

DIY Gift Wrap

Year after year, I’d go from being totally floored to carefully select or craft Christmas gifts only to slump when it was time to wrap them. Not only did I dislike using up a bunch of paper product to wrap our gifts, but the readily available, last minute – ahem – wrapping paper options weren’t stellar either.

Here are just two simple things we’ve done over the years. First, we started using kraft paper, or the paper that comes on rolls for art projects. This gave us the freedom to put our own unique twist on the wrapping – drawing pictures on the paper, stamping it, or decorating it.

A couple of years ago I started sewing reusable fabric gift bags and haven’t looked back. I love this way of gift-wrapping and am excited to pick up some new fabric this year to add to some new bags to our collection. You are sort of limited to the options in your local fabric shop unless you pre-order fabric well in advance. There are so many fabrics I’d have love to have used, but am happy that we have these as it really saves a huge wrapping headache!

To make these bags, simply:

1. Hem the ends of two pieces of fabric.

2. With right sides together, sew around the bottom and sides of the bag.

3. Turn the bag so the fabric is facing the right way.

4. Stitch a ribbon onto the back, so that it can be tied around the top of an irregularly shaped gift (like a pouch), or folded over a square or rectangular gift (like regular ribbon would be). The ribbons you see in the photos of the fabric bags below, are all sewn on in this way.

We’ve also experimented with Furoshiki, or japanese gift wrapping, which is even less time consuming than homemade gift bags. You just need a piece of fabric and a tutorial found online in the form of pictures or videos (there are plenty on you tube).

What’s your favourite way to wrap gifts? Share in the comments.

tiny advent huge love // giveaway

If you’ve read my recent posts, you’ll know that I LOVE giving gifts. To celebrate the creativity of those following along with Tiny Advent this year, and to offer up one more gift to you guys, I am giving away 20 TINY DOLLARS – a $20 gift certificate (aka coupon code) to use toward any downloadable product in the Tiny Peasant shop!

To participate, just share a photo of something your family has done as a part of the Tiny Advent series and use the hashtag #tinyadvent. If you can also tag Tiny Peasant, that would be great!

Super simple and a lot of fun, as we get to grow a community around this thing, and share even more creative ideas.

I just love how my friend, Maria, made this sweet chalkboard to write part of the weekly memory verse on, and her beautiful Advent table area for the light of plants. Another friend shared how she had sick children and couldn’t get out to buy nice new socks for her advent calendar – so she dug around and found some old socks including some of her children’s baby socks. So great. Share your huge love and show us what you’re doing! Pinterest quality photos not required! Enter as many times as you’d like.

With (huge) love,
Kris

that time of year

“It’s that time of year, when the world falls in love. When every song you hear seems to say, “Merry Christmas. May your New Year dreams come true…”

This is a line from one of my favourite Christmas songs by Frank Sinatra – we’ve been listening to the She & Him version over the holiday season. Oh, the holidays. A time of peace, togetherness and joy. Right? Or are you feeling the weight of your to-do list, your children’s wish lists, and Pinterest’s look-like-this lists?

Sinatra’s song could actually be about how at this time of year, we all fall into shopping malls, and the voices we hear in our heads seem to say, “Make it perfect – then your holiday dreams will come true.”

As someone whose love language is giving gifts, I have to be intentional about simplifying the holidays and taking the focus off of consumerism and back where it belongs. My goal is to spend my time – time that would otherwise be spent shopping, decorating, and planning a 5 course meal – creating life-giving activities and rhythms for our family at this time of year. I get to satisfy my love language by giving that gift to my children.

Part of that is making our gifts. We buy very few gifts and everything the kids gift is handmade by them. This is worked right into our weekly rhythms as crafting is a part of our Advent series, so each week we’re busy felting, mixing, pouring, planting, sewing and otherwise creating handmade goodness that is gifted to others. Here are some things we’ve made in the past.

Sometimes after a while of crafting, Milo is done and moves on to his own endeavors, like making invisibility or sleep potions with rose petals and baking soda. I am wondering who the recipient of this amazing gift will be – we may never see them again! I couldn’t resist sharing these photos of him, as he was so engaged in the moment and is so darn cute.

I love creating space for us to just “be” during this season of turing inward in anticipation and wonder. How do you simplify your holidays and bring the focus on peace, joy & togetherness? Share your tips in the comments.

*Keep reading for THREE amazing free gifts for the holidays…

If you’re interested in some great free resources for a simple and joy-filled holiday, check out these three free gifts (another way I can live out my love language this season):

1. I have created resources out of a lot of the activities I have done with my own family over the years and am offering them this year at no cost through the Tiny Advent series. There is a fun giveaway running right now where you can win a $20 Tiny Peasant gift certificate for sharing your photos of things you’ve done based on the series with the hashtag #tinyadvent. See here for more details.

2. The Playroom Remedy e-course sets you up with five practical emails to help you turn your mountains of toys into molehills – great for before or after the holidays – and also for choosing quality toys.

3. Dealing with all the “stuff” of Christmas isn’t the only thing that crops up at this time of year, so I was thankful to join two amazing women for a free audio series, Healthy Holidays. Learn how to make healthy versions your favourite treats, keep a healthy holiday mindset, and create amazing family memories through some simple holiday rhythms and practices.
