  • Bible Study Package – 12 Week

    Some seasons of life leave you starving for deep spiritual food. You’re nursing and you miss the sermon, a crisis hits and leaves you depleted, or you’re caring for an aging spouse or loved one. This is the Bible study I wish I had when I was in an overwhelmed stage of life. I’ve taken…

  • Book of Centuries

    $5.00

    This 59-page printable Book of Centuries journal covers from 6900 BC – 2090 AD. Keeping a book of centuries over several years allows your students to visualize how history fits together and to keep a record of what they have learned. This method of learning is compatible with and encouraged by Classical, traditional, and Charlotte Mason learning styles.

    I struggled to find a bound Book of Centuries on Amazon that wasn’t missing pages, so I decided to make my own printable version. This can be 3 hole punched and put into a three-ring binder, or spiral bound to make a heirloom version.

    The benefit of having your timeline in a book is it reduces wall clutter. It also allows your student to personalize their book with what they remember, which gives them personal connections.

    Based on my research it is best to keep one book from Kinder – 4th and another 5th- high school. This gives your students time to learn what it looks like to keep a timeline, and then a chance to create an heirloom version of what they are learning. Personally the kinder- 4th drawings my students have created are the cutest things I’ve ever seen.

    When faithfully kept, the global connections my kids have made as we study various continents have been so much fun to watch.

    Personally, I like the “Timeline” version for Kinder – 4th, and the “Book of Centuries” for 5th – the end of High School.

    I recommend printing it on 28-pound paper. If you send it to the print shop use these directions. “28lb, black and white double-sided, color print first page, spiral-bound laminated first and last page.”

    For a cheaper version “28lb, black and white double-sided, color print first page, spiral-bound with protective clear covers”

    The cheapest version of course is self-printing, 3-hole punching, and putting into a 3-ring binder.

    Can be used alongside my  “Around the Ancient World” curriculum

  • Create a Community on Social Media

    $25.00

    If you purchase this 25-page workbook on how to “Create a Community on Social Media” you’re a creative person that has something bigger in your heart! God has placed in you the desire to reach other women with a product or message that will change their life.

    Before Keller was born, I made extra money for our family by consulting with small businesses. I taught them how use social media, to get their products out there, but more than that I want to teach women how to get their message out there, so I’ve lowered the prices for the same product to make it accessible to Christian, stay-at-home moms (Just this used to be $75 and a consulting starting cost was $300)

    The goal of this workbook is to help you figure out what to do to make that dream and God given calling happen. When you finish this book will know exactly where to spend your time and effort to reach your goal not just for the sake of numbers, but your mission!

  • Homeschool Planner – Monthly

    $15.00

    This Monthly Homeschool Planner Workbook is EXACTLY what I needed in my life. I love setting goals, journaling, and habit trackers.

  • Homeschool Planner Workbook – Blank

    $15.00

    This 19-page Homeschool Planner Workbook was written for me to use in our homeschool. By the time I finished creating it I had burnt up several hours and I decided to save some of you the trouble by making it available. 

    • I start the book with four pages of questions to analyze your homeschool year. These are similar to the usual goal-setting questions but made specific to homeschooling.
    • The next two pages are laying out the subject you want to teach and the book/methods you want to teach those subjects.
    • There are 4 pages to write books you want to read, and books you have read as you go.
    • Then comes the memorization and field trip goals.
    • The final 3 pages are to be printed every month. There are two goal-setting questions for each month, a habit tracker for your ONE thing to focus on for the month. The next page is to review your month. Analyze what worked, what didn’t work, what you have coming up, and the systems you changed to make things easier. I give you a place to rate your month just as a way to look back over the year. The final page of this section is to check in on your subject list. To see what you need to teach that month to meet your yearly goal.

    I’m looking forward to using this in my homeschool, and I hope it makes yours easy too. If you need it printed and bound I recommend Family Nest Printing! They’ve done work for me in the past and it was BEAUTIFUL! (note: just remember to print pages 16-18 as many months as you plan to do school) You can get a discount if you use the code SUNSHINE

  • Nature Scavenger Hunt

    $12.00

    I started our own nature study group and would print off scavenger hunts, but I discovered they were all really general. I decided to make some that are seasonally appropriate, in order to make sure we can maximize the fun. There is nothing worse than losing your scavenger hunt because you can’t find a bloom in January. These can be printed off in color or black and white.

    This set also includes nature color wheels. I recommend printing them off on cardstock and then clipping clothespins to the edges. These are going to need color print.

  • Oklahoma Nature Journal

    $7.00

    This is a guided wildlife nature journal perfect for little boys (or girls). It includes only animals that can be found in Oklahoma. My boys love learning about new animals from Wild Kratts, so I decided to take their favorite and tie in learning they will love. Each lesson has a Section to read, write, watch, and draw.

    Maybe you have intentions to do an organic nature journal with them, but it’s so opened ended that you end up doing nothing. This will take the concept and make it a fun indoor (for the super hot or cold days) or outdoor activity that strengthens their knowledge of local animals, writing skills, and drawing skills.

    To complete you will need:

    • “Wildlife Anatomy” by Julia Rothman
    • “Nature Anatomy” by Julia Rothman
    • Access to Youtube for drawing lessons
    • Access to a place to watch Wild Kratts (currently on Amazon or Netflix)

    Notes:

    These checkboxes are not law. If you want to use part of it, but not the rest, please don’t think the list at the bottom is a checklist. I wanted to create somewhat rounded resources to learn about animals, but don’t want this to become rules to follow. If your kid wants to learn more about an animal keep going, but if your child is tired and. done by task one, don’t force it.

    YouTube Drawing 

    The resources I picked were as realistic as possible. This means they are also often the harder option. If you have a younger learner try a simpler version. If you have someone older they may want to draw straight from the “Anatomy” book. I find it fun to always label the parts of the animal when we are done.

    What to write

    At my kid’s Charlotte Mason co-op/school, they ask themselves these 3 questions about whatever they are observing. Younger kids usually pick one of the questions to write a sentence about.

    • It reminds me of…
    • I wonder…
    • I notice…

    Charlotte Mason would have encouraged kids to learn first about what they can see and touch, but so if you live in Oklahoma these animals will be the perfect place to start!

  • Organized Car Essentials

    $2.00

    This is the list of organized car essentials that I compiled from hundreds of moms on Instagram. I used to keep my car empty other than a bit of trash, a charge cord, and a hair kit. All that changed when I heard what a couple of other mom’s kept in their car to be safe! I decided to load up on essentials.

    When I called for help in a poll these are the items that other moms said they couldn’t do without in their car! This is going to help so much when we are doing field trips this coming year!

    I’ve taken inductive Bible study practices that are usually applied to chapters and books of the Bible and applied them to some of the most meaningful verses of the Bible. This will allow you to access richness while living in seasons of low capacity.
