Art, Music and History a Great Combination

The best way for anyone to learn is using as many senses as possible! We have matched up some perfect combinations of art, music and history so you and your children can learn in ways that will make it stick and have fun learning!

Touch  Taste  Smell  Hear  See

Below we have suggested video courses from Chalk Pastel and Music in Our Homeschool to match up with our history curriculum here at Yellow House Book Rental.

Use your creativity and make your own matches. Learning is so much more fun when we can see it, feel it, touch it, hear it and even taste it!

I had so much fun putting all of these courses together. I wish these had been available back about 10 years ago. We are a very artsy, musical family and this would have made learning so much more fun! One thing I wish I had done when my children were elementary school age was to do more fun stuff. There will be so much time when they are older, teen years, that they will have to do school work. Spend time reading, doing math and some writing and grammar, but the rest should be fun.

Learning when you don't realize you are learning is always the best way to learn!

Enjoy this school year and remember, The days are long but the years are so short. Enjoy your little and big blessings while you can!

Enjoying the journey,
