It seems like its hard to find ideas for adoption party themes, especially if you're adopting from foster care.  I've been planning Tadpole's adoption party and looking at all my old Pinterest ideas.  Here are some to consider if you're working on your own foster-to-adopt party. Pun Party Themes "Luke was Adopted Too" ( Star Wars ) "Welcome to Our Zoo" ( zoo ) "We're Wild About This One" ( jungle ) "Wanted: Asleep or Awake" ( cowboy ) "Bee-ing Loved" or "Sweet as Honey" ( bees ) "We Found the Missing Piece" ( puzzles ) "Showers of Blessings" ( rain/umbrella/rainbows ) "You are My/Our Sunshine" ( sunflowers/yellow ) "You Color Our World" ( paint/color/art ) "Superman was Adopted Too" ( superhero ) "Our Family was Built by Adoption" ( construction ) "This is My Circus- These are My Clowns" ( circus ) "Love Changes Everything" ( me

When I rebranded this blog from "In Our Pond" to "Homeschooling My Kinetic Kids" this year, I wanted to add more content for high-energy kids.  Some moms and I were talking this morning about dealing with stir-crazy kids in these winter months.  After I brainstormed a bunch of ideas for the FB group, I decided the list would make a great blog post!  I try not to do things the easy way in my blog, so I made a list of 100 activities. 1- breath holding contest to practice for summer swimming 2- cartwheels 3- make a balance board with a board and a can 4- stretch with exercise bands 5- wheelbarrow races down the hallway 6- put on a circus or play 7- paint a picture with your feet 8- handstand contest 9- pretend to be an animal 10- make a ring toss game with paper plates 11- 52 card pick-up 12- push an ice cube with your nose across the kitchen floor 13- play concentration ( instructions ) 14- wresting 15- speed cleaning contest 16- relay races 17- skipping 18- kitchen f

Multiplication Battleship for Math Practice

Did you know that I take special request?  This free printable was created to fill a need for a follow homeschool mom.  Her kids are working on their times factor and could use some extra practice in a fun way.  She asked me to make her a multiplication battleship game.  After a bit of brainstorming, I had a printable all ready for her. The PDF comes with a printable game board for beginners, with all numbers in order (shown below) and one for more advanced students with the numbers all jumbled.  The printable also includes two half-sheet recording sheets for keeping track of your opponent's ships.  There are also twenty battleships for sinking (extras to make it easier on mom/teacher). I recommend laminating the whole set and using dry erase markers to keep track of the hits and misses.  Boats can be secured to the game board with tape, teacher tack, or velcro. > > > Click HERE to Download the Printable < < < Reminder- this printable is only available for newsl
