Lap Books!
I have heard about them for a couple of years and even purchased a couple of "how to" books on lap booking but it just didn't become real until we were personally introduced four days ago at a "Girls for God" meeting sponsored by our local home school group. Mia Turner, home school mom and lap booker, provided everything needed and guided us through the process of making a lap book on "Love, 1 Corinthians 13 Style." Her creativity and enthusiasm were so contagious that we are now hooked! After getting home that evening my eleven year old daughter decided to make a lap book on "The Reformation." My sixteen year old daughter decided to take her "Love" lap book a step further and added information about dating and courtship. And my four and six year old girls added more details to their "Love" lap books too. If this wasn't enough for a day! Yesterday my eleven year old invited a friend to come over to make lap books together about horses. They collected a bunch of info and pictures from the internet and made some really nice books. While this was going on my sixteen year old wouldn't be left out so she started researching and made a really neat lap book about mountains. It's never ending!!!! What a creative and exciting way to learn - not to mention FUN!
