Blue Yonder Books for Circle Time

By Kendra | October 30, 2009

I’m in serious love with these terrific activity/recipe/craft books from Blue Yonder Ranch.  They’re a perfect addition to Circle Time plans, and they are delightful to look at and explore together.

As I was walking out to get the mail last week, I noticed huge toadstools growing under the redwoods by the pond.  I thought it would be so homeschooly of me to take my kids out there to see them, but I really don’t know a thing about mushrooms so wasn’t sure what I’d tell the kids, other than the obligatory “Don’t eat them!” speech.

Lo and behold Blue Yonder Ranch’s Autumn I Book of Days has a lovely spread about mushrooms and what to do with them; I couldn’t believe what perfect timing this was!

    Kendra,
    That post gives me the creeps. Seriously, I hate mushrooms SOOOOOO much, that seeing your kids holding those grosses me out!! LOL!
    My mom says I ate them when I was little, but I can’t imagine that!! The paper that one of your kids is drawing looks very cool though! Have a great weekend! I’ve been really enjoying your meaty posts lately! And right now, my almost 3 yr old little fella’ is sitting right beside me, telling me that he “won’t get in trouble” if I just let him go away from me. LOL! I don’t think so!

    I’ve finally had a chance today to go over and have a peek at Blue Yonder and I’m seriously coveting. I think my kids would really love some of that stuff. I was thinking we could take a field trip to Whole Foods and get some different mushrooms :)

    WOW! I’m coveting those books.

    On a side note I have a question for you, but I can not find your e-mail. What is the best way to send. In a comment line??
    Thank you
