Buggy For 10! has two versions in the same file!

Version one is a standard file folder game. You supply the folder, everything else is included.

Version two is a smaller version, perfect for traveling, that comes with it’s own coordinated printable file folder!

Kids practice quickly sorting facts that add up to ten from facts that don’t. This is a vital skill for estimating and strong mental math!

Science Fun All Summer Long….

Please read my honest opinion below. If you choose to purchase through my links, I thank you for your support of the Little Learning Lovies sites!)

Do you struggle to add meaningful science studies to your homeschool? Maybe science isn’t your strongest subject. Maybe you feel like there should be more to it all than just watching the wildlife in your backyard?

E-Science just might be the answer you are looking for!

Right now, until Thursday, May 16th, the amazing folks as Supercharged Science have open enrollment for their summer science e-camp. It’s really affordable, especially since you enroll your family, not individual children! And she offers two options: You can pay in full up front or you can pay in three very easy to manage installments!

I just enrolled our family for the first time and I’m so excited about it. But here’s the cool part. When I enrolled in the Summer Science E-Camp, she came up with a special bonus offer that I couldn’t pass up. We pre-enrolled for the Fall E-Science without having to pay anything now… We won’t actually pay anything until September, but she gave us access to the whole e-science program right away!

We immediately started watching her really fun videos and my kids were all crowded around, joining in with her and interacting with her (my kids are 2nd graders, but it’s great for K through 8!). I love that she made everything easy to understand without dumbing it down. My kids were learning some amazing things, and tomorrow we’ll be jumping into some impressive experiments.

I’m a picky momma… I don’t let my kids waste time on fluffy curriculum. This is full of real, useful science content that relates directly to the world around us and how it all works. Kids are encouraged to ask and answer their own questions using the scientific method and to apply those skills to other areas of their life. LOVE that!

If you want to enroll in the Summer Science E-Camp, you’ll need to hurry! Enrollment only lasts through this Thursday, May 16th! It is SO much fun already and SO worth the small investment for your whole family! Click here to learn more!

Did you miss our SimplyFun Facebook Party? There’s still plenty of fun… and rewards…. left for you!

SimplyFun is a direct sales company who offers us exclusive award winning games. I have a few already and I have to say they are amazingly fun! We have a weekly game night at our house and we never enjoy ourselves quite so much as when we’re playing a SimplyFun game!

How to get these REALLY well made games:

Through midnight on May 9th, 2013, you can order through this link. At checkout, you’ll choose me, Sandra Modersohn, as your Laugh & Learn party host and you’ll get to earn a gift certificate to the Little Learning Lovies STORE!!!! Here’s how the rewards work:

Any order over $10: a $5 gc to the LLL store
Any order over $25: a $10 gc to the LLL store
Any order over $50: a $15 gc to the LLL store
Any order over $75: a $20 gc to the LLL store
These rewards are in addition to any rewards offered by SimplyFun!

Sound… Fun?

I love that the SimplyFun games are so sturdily made. No flimsy pieces here… Even the boxes are really sturdy to stand up to kids un-gentle hands!

I also love that the games usually take 30 minutes or less, so it’s easy to fit them into your days.

Finally, most of the games have real educational value, for both adults and children alike! And each of them has a video on their website so you can see how it’s played and if it’s right for your family.

But hurry! You only have until midnight on Thursday night (May 9th). Order here: http://www.our.simplyfun.com

SimplyFun and Simply Fun! :)

There’s a blogging rule that you aren’t supposed to discuss more than one item per blog post. But I’ve never been good at following that rule! So here’s TWO fun and completely unrelated items for your enjoyment today…

SimplyFun

My sister and I are co-hosting a SimplyFun Facebook Party on Wednesday, May 8th, at 9:00 pm Eastern time and you are ALL invited! Please share it with your friends and family. Anyone who has or works with or loves kids will LOVE this party. (It also happens to be the day before my birthday, so won’t you please come celebrate with me?)

There are a lot of rewards and contests associated with this party, some of which I’ll wait to tell you about until we’re all there, but the best ones right now are these:

If you RSVP right now, or any time before the party starts, you’ll be entered to win a $5 Little Learning Lovies Gift Certificate. AND if you are one of the first 25 people to respond, you’ll be entered into ANOTHER drawing to win a 20% discount on your SimplyFun purchase!

Can’t come to the party? You don’t have to be on Facebook to have fun with us! You can visit and shop at www.our.simplyfun.com and when you check out, enter me, Sandra Modersohn, as your party host. That way, you’ll still be entered for all the fun rewards we’ve set up for purchasers!

I hope we see you there! Remember its on Wednesday May 8th at 9:00 pm Eastern!

NEW IN THE STORE
(Our own game that is, well, quite simply, fun!)

I’ve had a new idea that I stayed up late last night working on and I’m pretty happy with it. So happy that I have it in the store on sale for half price right now so you can try it too!

My daughter saw it this morning and said “Ooooh! Can I play THAT one??” so I’m counting it as a success. But I want you to try it and tell me what you think!

Picking 10 is a strawberry patch game that asks children to quickly find the strawberries that add up to ten and sort them from the strawberries that don’t. Knowing the facts that add to ten is a really important skill that one of my daughters is struggling with a bit, so I made this for her.

But here’s the best part: This game comes in two formats in the same file! First, is the traditional sized game that you can put into any handy file folder you have. Then…

This file has a matching printable folder that you can use with a slightly smaller version of the game, also included, that makes for a beautifully coordinated game that cries out to be played. Picking 10 is also a perfect size for taking in the car with you!

Right now, this game is just $1! Won’t you give it a try and let me know what you think?
