Welcome!

I am a liberal-minded homeschool mom who is constantly trying to find that elusive state of balance in my life while enjoying my two energetic, yet vastly different boys.

Our wisdom is all mixed up with what we call our neurosis. Our brilliance, our juiciness, our spiciness, is all mixed up with our craziness and our confusion, therefore it doesn’t do any good to try to get rid of our so-called negative aspects, because in that process we also get rid of our basic wonderfulness.

Who Is Dav Pilkey’s Favorite Teacher?

DateSunday, November 18, 2007 at 04:07PM

Watch this video to find out! I think that most homeschoolers will really appreciate this one.

I will say that Dav Pilkey has a special place in my heart…his Captain Underpants were the first books that Jason read on his own and got him over the initial hump of reading "chapter books". What 8 year old boy can resist titles such as Captain Underpants and the Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People and Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toliets. Especially when Mom lets you know that she has absolutely no desire to read them!

And a neat thing that I did not realize…Dav Pilkey also wrote the Big Dog Little Dog board books! These were some of Jason's (and my) favorite board books. While I have gotten rid of most of our old board books, these are among the ones that I saved (along with the Busy Bugs board books and Bean the Cat board books). Cool!
