Knowledge Is Power





































Today while Sebastian and I were visiting the library, looking thorough the vast number of available audio books, I happened upon this one that I think is darling but also quite timely... We have been talking a lot about the impending Presidential election, our hopes for it's outcome and the need for change in our country.  What better way to try to explain this giant concept to such a little boy... The name of the book is Duck For President...

With election day coming so soon, here are few other suggestions for your child to become more acquainted with presidents, states and history...
Now is a good time for them to learn about their country.
  1. Did you know that the presidents dog can have it's own web page? He most certainly can and you can find it by clicking here... he can also tour the white house and play the dog's matching game...
  2. The puzzled states game located here, asks players to move states onto a blank map.  Help you child to find his own state as well as others that family members live in, after completing the puzzle.
  3. For a trip through history, try this... Your child can build his own pioneer house or paint a buffalo hide! What fun!
