We have little room to complain about this year's winter weather here in the Midwest. We've barely had any snow to speak of, and as someone who loathes the white stuff, I couldn't be a bigger fan of the 2011-2012 winter season thus far. On days when we do get snow, it's actually nice to cuddle up with a warm drink and do a little reading while mother nature does what she will.
Our Saturday was spent studying. My history girl spent several hours learning about religions and cultures from around the world, including some interesting YouTube videos we found. Little G spent most of his time working on math, of course. Today we will be doing some hooping PE so Reezle can practice her halos, her favorite hoop trick.
Both of the kids are excitedly anticipating Groundhog Day, which is coming right up on February 2. Will Punxutawney Phil see his shadow this year? The kids are hoping he won't, since they both want an early spring. I guess we will find out on Thursday!
I am amazed at how Youtube is not only for entertainment, but also give us so much knowledge. I too have used it for my work. It's a great venue for the kids!
