I love taht I am no alone in this love. :P My daughter watched all the tv series and finished her collection of DVD's for her birthday. Now I want her to read the books and came up with some great ideas to encouarge her along. We will be starting the first week of July. Thanks for some more inspiration. I was a bit too scared of dipping candles like Farmer Boy talks about and after seeing how it didn't work out for you I think I might pass on that activity. :P Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09112316373967956190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536964614643414021.post-19498168124268716662011-07-24T18:30:35.814-04:002011-07-24T18:30:35.814-04:00I love this!

As someone who grew up near DeSmet, South Dakota, I'm a real fan of the Laura Ingalls Wilder books. And all your activities really help bring the books to life!

I played Laura a lot as a child and enjoy reading the books to my oldest son now. I saved my bonnets and calico dress (all made by grand and great grandmothers). Hope my girl will be playing in them in a few years.Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760240394306239399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536964614643414021.post-91272820548204964672011-07-08T14:10:13.076-04:002011-07-08T14:10:13.076-04:00Now that looks like fun!

Fill jar halfway with heavy cream or heavy whipping cream. Secure lid (if it's not a screw-top, tape it down.) Shake and/or roll vigorously for around 15 minutes. When the marble stops clonking around in there, it's done. Strain off leftover buttermilk (and make biscuits!) using cheesecloth and/or rinse with water. Ta-Dah! Tastes AMAZING.Ludicrous Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808367296847075643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536964614643414021.post-43412299462613011122011-07-06T20:10:16.456-04:002011-07-06T20:10:16.456-04:00What a great activity!
