Greetings from Me and My House,

It’s not too often that I post these kinds of things, but they can be basic helps. Here’s a few tips for time management for your children pertaining to their studies.

See my from me post today for a few tips on general household time management.

Keep things in their place and Think ahead. Plan what they need before beginning and gather all necessary tools. Saves much time if they know where they are. :-)

Also arrange activities to provide variety and break things up - alternate quiet and active studies. Take breaks when needed, doing a different type of activity, so the time spent studying is productive.

More another time.

Greetings from Me and My House,

I’ve been busy the last couple of weeks and have several new resources available for you now! Not that it’s easy for this busy mom (you know what that is like) to get what we do put into a format that is easy for you to use. But it’s a labor of love. I love being a “helper of your joy”. (See 2 Cor. 1:24) So I hope you enjoy the resources as you Disciple for Life!

Some of these resources are updates and expansions of previous versions. And the best news is that they are all available as pdf downloads now! You can have these in your hands today!

Read to the bottom for another great Announcement from Me and My House.

Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting is a principled approach to
teaching penmanship. Perhaps you got our free sneak preview of the first part of it a couple months ago. This book contains all you need to teach handwriting - foundational studies, history, rudiments and principles, as well as instruction for teaching and learning both manuscript and cursive.

Handwriting Journal Pages is over 50 pages of notebooking forms designed to correspond with the teaching in Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting. Our Introductory Special price for the 2 together is $10.

Book of Remembrance Journal Pages is a complete expansion and redesign of our Topical Journal Forms. It now includes notebooking forms for all the aspects of a Biblical principles type of study, as well as more detailed instruction for how to use them and some study helps. Reproduce whichever forms are helpful to you in documenting your non-textbook based study. They are $5.

Refrigerator Charts Master Pack got a face lift and some additions also. As a downloadable resource, you are now able to get all our refrigerator charts forms and reproduce whichever ones you want, whenever you want. This Master Pack includes 9 reproducible forms - with the addition of a Learning Map™ format for a couple of them. They are $5.

Here’s great news! We are offering one of the Refrigerator Chart Masters as our Free Offer for the next few days to everyone that signs up for our Me and My House musings newsletter. If you already get our newsletter you will receive info in the newsletter on how to get your Free Offer.

Announcing! We now accept Credit Card payments through PayPal for your orders. I don’t have the Shopping Cart set up yet, but it will be coming soon to make ordering even easier for you. But you can start making Credit Card payments NOW! You can also still pay by check or money order if you prefer.

I just found out christianaudio.com has a 4 day sale listed on their website. 40% off through this weekend. They have some good stuff and some stuff I wouldn’t recommend, but no doubt you can find something good to listen to there. Perhaps a book you’ve been meaning to read, but never have time to sit down long enough. Audio books are great for situations like this. I also find that some hard to wade through books are easier to understand when someone else is reading them to me.

Perhaps the Confessions of Augustine or the Hiding Place, the Attributes of God by Tozer or Pilgrims Progress, Desiring God or Robinson Crusoe, the Sovereignty of God or the Universe Next Door, True Spirituality or Aesop’s Fables. There’s several good choices for you to consider.

And, I may have mentioned this before, but in the Christian History section there is a whole series by John Piper that are excellent. They begin with the letters DG. Oh, and these ones are FREE!

At Jesus’ feet ~ for Me and My House,
Lisa

Greetings from Me and My House,

Just a final reminder…

The wonderful benefit sale for the Estes family, which I wrote about last week, is scheduled to END in just a few short hours - Friday the 13th at midnight!

This is your last chance to participate and be a blessing to a family in need… and in return receive a fantastic collection of top-notch homeschooling and family resources for your family as a Thank You gift.

You can find all the details here:
http://www.chirotoons.com/benefit

But be sure to take a look before the deadline Friday at midnight. You won’t believe what all has been assembled in the Thank You package (including my PIPEline of HisStory). It is WELL worth your time and attention!

When the benefit is over, I’ll try to get a lot of ideas I’ve been writing on posted.

Thanks so much,

For Me and My House ~ At Jesus’ feet,

Greetings from Me and My House,

Today I want to tell you about a very special event that begins today and only lasts 8 days. It isn’t a Me and My House event; it is much bigger than that.

You may already know the Estes family, who operate Hands and Hearts. We’re taking part in an online benefit to bless this fellow homeschooling family, who have seen far more than their share of trials and difficulties this past year.

In fact, dozens of the Estes family’s friends & associates have contributed a truly HUGE package of wonderful homeschool and family resources as a “Thank You gift” to folks who can help us in this worthy effort.

Here’s the site that explains all about this online benefit and how it works:
http://www.chirotoons.com/benefit

You truly won’t believe all the resources that have been donated for this. It is really an amazing outpouring of love and support. Please take a look… YOU can be a real blessing to a family in need… and in return, YOUR FAMILY will also receive a blessing from the wonderful selection of resources that you’ll find there.

This benefit will only last for eight days, so take a look now… and then please tell a friend or two about it!
http://www.chirotoons.com/benefit

Please do not overlook this opportunity to bless a fellow Christian family, that gives much to others, now in need. Many of the resources in the HUGE Thank You package, can be used by any family, home educating or not. There is one from Me and My House and many others from many other home education and/or family ministries/businesses.

Thanks so much,

For Me and My House ~ At Jesus’ feet,
