Our boys Aden and Alec have been reading The Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder. We are reading this at home and also they are reading it in one of their homeschool co-op classes. One of the most wonderful thing about co-ops is that your kiddos get these crafty and gifted mamas who teach them things that you are so not good at! :)
This week, after the calss read Chapter Two,their teacher Sheila Smith, had all the children make butter! Thats right, real cream butter! They took the cream, shook and shook ( Alec said " at least 20 hours!) and made into real butter. Delightful!
The boys were escpecially proud when they brought home their little Mason jars full of their homade butter. We all enjoyed spreading it on that evenings' dinner rolls.
Yummy......
Love,
Jenny
