SouleMama: For 2009 – Oh oh oh!!! Have you bought your 2009 wall calendar yet? I usually pick out an artist’s calendar for the year, but I might just have to go with Amanda Soule’s A Year of Craft instead. That red bird against aqua wall photo is the one that made me fall in love with her blog. ETA: Oh, shoot. It’s 28.95. Hard to justify spending more than 12 bucks on a calendar, especially this year. I’ll just have to keep up my ceaseless clicking around her blog.
FreeRice: Subjects – Many thanks to Karen Edmisten for pointing out that FreeRice has added all kinds of new subjects to its “play this and we’ll donate rice to the World Food Program” game. I am loving the famous paintings quiz!
Wonderful noodle stretching and folding video – Boing Boing – Fold the dough 12 times to get 4,096 noodles. Awesome. Jane, this one’s for you.

In 2006, a year after I began this blog, I coined the term Tidal Homeschooling to describe my family’s homeschooling style, an ebb and flow of
high tide (planned, Charlotte Mason-ish) and low tide (unschoolish, delight directed) learning. You’ll sometimes see me call it Tidal Learning. Seventeen years later (and counting), the metaphor still works. At the time of this writing (January 2023), I’m enjoying tidal homeschooling with Huck and Rilla, my two youngest, now in their teens.

If you’d like to read more about tidal homeschooling, there are a bunch of posts at this link.
