Homeschool Mental Health Day

Ugh. Everyone was in a terrible mood! So much arguing and complaining and general discontent. I decided to cancel Monday. I was just not up for it. I declared a mental health day instead of our regularly scheduled schedule.

It looked like this:

Make Chocolate chip Banana 🍌 Bread and strawberry smoothies for breakfast

Cat & chicken chores

our mini flock of 4 Americana hens

Bible lesson

pick up new Lego at PO Box

Free Time* – mama clean up breakfast and prep lunch

Lunch @ noon

Free time* – mama clean up lunch and prep craft

papier-mâché craft – we started a DIY piñata

a balloon covered with strips of phone book pages dipped in flour paste
(1 part flour + 2 parts water)

Free time* – mama mini spa: shower & face mask

Test new Game

It was fun! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2:30 Matinee documentary movie: Secrets of the Elephants on Disney+

Free time* – mama get everything ready for swim lessons

Swim lessons at the public pool

Dinner when we got home: bacon & egg sandwiches

Kids showers – mama & papa clean up dinner

Stories & mama knitting time

8:30 bedtime & mama listens to Proverbs 21-24 YouVersion plan ‘BibleProject | Old Testament In a Year’

* the kiddos played with Lego during most of their free time

Ah! An easy, semi-relaxing day with no math lessons or writing assignments!

Happy homeschooling! 💖 heavenstobetty
