Our little household does many science projects. What type of projects does your family enjoy? A friend’s family devised a timeline of music which spanned the perimeter of their home classroom. Have you considered Teaching about Famous Artists? (Here is a book!). Several home-school families raise chickens as a project: exotic breeds, organic practices, or as part of 4H projects. Dick Blick has Fiber Art Project Ideas. What about learning how to knit? Make your first family project Team Scarves. Brainstorm ideas as a family: gardens, sheds, woodworking, leather crafts, 4H, Scouts, even an Etsy Business. Here is how I brainstorm. Ask your family, “If money were no object, what would you like to do?” Now, when the kids answer, “Go to Disney World!,” ask them how to pay for the trip. I had a young friend who built and sold Adirondack chairs. He was ten! What projects could your family do?
