Jamie’s homeschool day in the life (with an 11-, 12-, & 13-year-old)
My children are 4.5, 20 months and 4 months. Our favorite winter activity is to do snowball fights and make snowmen!
My children are 13 & 9, We live in Southern Arizona so we have pretty mild winters so we like just being outside since summers are well over 100 degrees.
My children are 8 and 11. They love playing in the snow, and we also enjoy visiting our favorite parks in all seasons. Thanks for the opportunity!
My children are 9 and 11. We love taking walks on the beach in the winter (we live in Florida). We find beautiful treasures every time we go.
My kids are 15 and 13. We live in S. Calif so no snow for us in the winter. We do enjoy skating at the ice rink or going out to watch hockey games.
My children are 5 and 1. We really enjoy playing outside most days in the winter, because my son has allergies during the warmer months, so we aren’t outside as often then.
My children are 7 and 9. We love to take walks in the woods and fields on our farm, collect dead or down items and take pictures of other things he to identify later.
My 2 and 7 year olds love looking for birds and other critters on cold days just to see who’s willing to be out.
My 5 and 8 year olds like talking about Jack Frost. Since we live in FL, they only dream of snow.
I hope I’m on time for the giveaway. My son is 5 years old and our favorite winter activity is to go for a walk in a park on the early afternoon. The sun is especially warm at that time and we can walk and talk a lot about what is around us!!!

My children are 7 and 4 and we enjoy doin Amy and everything outside. Most days they can be found out back on their swing set fort, rain or shine.
My children are 7 & 11. We love to hit the beach during the winter months. We always check how cold the water feels on our toes, look for shells, play in the sand while looking for critters, and enjoy the off-season from the crowds.
My kids are 7, 4, 2 and 7 months….we are a homeschooling expat family (yay for being open to international families!)….Our favorite winter activity is either hiking in the woods or strawberry picking in a local greenhouse (winter is strawberry season in Korea!).

My children are 17, 15, 12, and 5. In the winter, we love watching the wildlife outside and going for walks in the woods!
My kids are 4 & 2. We like to explore snowflakes in the winter.

Our children are 24, 20 & 7 and praying for another soon. We have decided to homeschool our 7 year old with Autism so he enjoys school and doesn’t feel like he is always in trouble. He is the sweetest little man and loves to collect rocks and winter doesn’t stop him. We find ourselves digging in the snow for rocks and whatever else he may find under the cold layers. We are praying for more snow next year to keep us even busier.
Happy Spring!
Our sons are ages seven and nine. I’d love to use this curriculum with my youngest child.
Our favorite activity in the winter to do together outdoors: I’m fairly certain both of my boys would say snowball fights and sledding! I would say snowshoeing and skiing!
Thank you!
My children are ages 12, 9, 6, and 2. During winter months we enjoy creative play outdoors, providing food for birds so we can observe the birds, and reading.
my children are 7 and 4 during winter we like to knit winter hats, scarves and headbands, it doesn’t get that much cold this side of the world though.
