Field trips don’t have to stop just because the season changes.
One of the best parts of homeschooling is learning with the rhythms of nature, not against them.

Here’s how we plan field trips by season — simple, affordable, and memory-rich:

🌸 Spring
• Nature centers & wildflower walks
• Farms, maple syrup demos, baby animals
• Creek walks & pond studies

☀️ Summer
• National & state parks
• Water science at lakes & splash pads
• Historical villages & outdoor museums

🍂 Fall
• Apple orchards & pumpkin farms
• Nature preserves + leaf studies
• Pioneer villages & harvest festivals

❄️ Winter
• Libraries & indoor museums
• Science centers & aquariums
• Greenhouses, conservatories & cultural centers

Homeschool doesn’t need a classroom — the world is the curriculum 🤍

Save this post for later and share it with a homeschool friend who needs fresh field trip ideas.

5 minute Paper Towel Roll Craft
Today is the final day of our Botany series and we hope you enjoyed our posts!
I printed a parts of a flower template online, colored it, cut it and glued it down on paper towel roll. I then cut each section and labeled the parts.
We used our wooden play skewer to build the flower and we also used a pasta drier rack that some how came apart and we were left with this “stand”.

The government of France is attempting to ban the hijab for Muslim females below the age of 18, mothers who wish to attend school trips and during national sports competitions.
Being silent is being complicit. If it is happening in France it can happen anywhere else. Help spread awareness by sharing this poster to your social media on April 14th. Also, please sign and share the petition link in my bio.
