We loved reading the Magic Treehouse books and making our passports! The research guides are fun for further extensions, too. Looks like you have all of your ducks in a row!!

Awesome line up for September.

We do school Jan- Sept/Oct. So we always get the question from strangers wanting to know if the kids are ready to go back to school & then we have to explain that we are getting ready to wrap up for the year instead. Always catches people off guard- even with as much as homeschooling has grown in popularity.

Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
