(I have to add that I was so, SO, SOOOO very excited to see that they printed a “facsimile edition” of the old version of the Blueberry Pie Elf and I immediately ordered a copy! I already owned a copy of this version, which I purchased at a used book sale, but the illustrations just didn’t compare… I have such wonderful memories of my dad reading this story to me as a child and the illustrations in this book bring back those memories so clearly!)

Debbie ~ I happened to be at Joann's Fabrics a couple weekends ago and they were having a sale on all of the Fleece Blanket Kits (Buy one get one free), so when I saw those I couldn't pass them up! They are cute, aren't they!! =)
A great song to play this week, since it's B week, would be Boogie-woogie Bugle Boy of Company B by the Andrew Sisters. Just a thought.
Hello Jessica, you are amazing!!!
How make you to be so busy!
You are a great mumm.
Friendly
Wow! Fantastic as always Jessica! Thank you for sharing your learning adventure with us.
God bless!
Cute banana boats!
This is awe-summm! (Check out my latest post for proof).
You're an inspiration! I hope to be half as good as you when I homeschool!
I love seeing these posts!
Is there a list somewhere of the supplies needed for Along the Alphabet Path? I can see that many items could be optional, but it seems like there are some must-haves, like the flower fairy book, the saints ABC book, the modeling beeswax…
And does it include reading/writing instruction as well? Just curious…
Thanks everyone!
Jana Jae ~ I found the song you mentioned on You Tube and it was GREAT!!! THANKS!!
Erin ~ I know Elizabeth does have a booklist and tutorial on her site. If you click on the link at the top of this post it will take you to the page that has them. I am pretty sure it just lists the books. The possibilities with this program truly are endless, and you can easily modify it however you like. The modeling beeswax is great to have though, my girls are sure loving it! In addition to the Alphabet Path I am using Handwriting, Phonics/Reading and Math programs with my girls each week.
Yeah! I am so excited to have started the Alphabet path 2 weeks behind you because now I steal all your wonderful ideas!!! It's so great! We are finishing A week right now and loving it! Thanks for all the great idea additions!
How is your husband doing? Have you been able to get in touch again? We had all the smoke from the fires here in Denver on Tuesday, it was incredible! you are all in my prayers.
Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement! I started the Alphabet Path on my boys (5 and 3.5 years) and its working wonderfully!
Prior to seeing your posts, I thought my 3.5 y.o was just not ready since he was so disinterested. Your blogs moved me to try harder and now he is able to recognize letters randomly in our environment! Plus they're both having soooo much fun!
God bless you!
