It’s been a busy few weeks homeschooling, crafting, and enjoying the holiday activities around town! We finally got a chance to visit Universal Studios this week to check out Grinchmas and the Macy’s Parade, which by the way was absolutely FANTASTIC! We are going to try and visit one more time before all the local kiddos are out of school 🙂 Will you be homeschooling during the holidays or is everyone taking a well deserved break? We will continue to homeschool and just take a few days off here and there. We started our new curriculum so I don’t want to fall too far behind. I want to wish you all a wonderful Holiday and a Very Merry Christmas from my family to yours!
A Thoughtful Spot is a place for you to share your amazing family friendly posts, arts & crafts, educational ideas, recipes, and anything fun you can think of! This Blog Hop is inspired by the one and only Winnie the Pooh character in the classic A.A. Milne children storybooks. Brought to you each week by Enchanted Homeschooling Mom, Something 2 Offer, Ironic Adventures, Me and Marie Learning, Montessori Nature, and ABC Creative Learning.
We do hope that you will visit our neck of the magical woods every week and take a quick rest by the tree on the tree stump while you read everyone’s blog posts that they have so thoughtfully shared with all of us. The posts are presented below in no particular order except that the number one bee always gets here first because it is powered by the most “clicks.”
Here are some of my favorites from last weeks link up! Make sure to stop by and check them out 🙂

Here at the Thoughtful Spot Weekly Blog Hop we know how hard everyone works to make the holidays special for their families. As we work hard for our families sometimes we tend to forget about a little time for ourselves here and there. To help make those times we can steal ourselves away for a few quiet moments we would like to offer everyone the opportunity to win a $30 gift certificate to Bath and Body Works. Hopefully you can pamper yourself a little or make that quick quiet moment that much more relaxing after make the holidays special for your loved ones.
