Kun Kar Rally 2019

Mr. G won third place in his Kub Kan Rally with his 
"Demolition Durgy" car. I love this kids enthusiasm for life. He is always sporting a grin and looking for ways to serve others. If there is hard physical work to be done, he is the first one to jump in and volunteer to do the dirty work.


Building Towers

Science and Cubs sometimes go hand in hand and can be very exciting. Especially when marshmallows are involved. The challenge was for each group to build the tallest free standing tower.  Each group were given the following items:
1. Set time frame 
2. Set number of marshmallows
3. Set number of tooth picks and skewers
 Mr. G's group won the challenge and he was every pleased with how his knowledge about building structures came in handy. 







Tumbling

This year all the kids took a tumbling class to help them improve their core strength. Improving their core strength aided in the development of their other activities such as dance. It also helped us to keep fit throughout the winter months. Miss M was a student teacher for 2 tumbling classes and 3 ballet/tap classes. The freedom a home education has afforded my children is priceless. Absolutely enjoying life to the fullest each day is such an amazing reward of shooting at home. 

Each one of my kids were able to set and reach a goal in their respective classes. I love being able to see the smile on their face when they achieve goals they set for themselves.








Skating





It has been a long, cold winter, and we all needed to get out of the house. Ironically we went ice skating. Choosing an activity that would have actually given us a break form the cold, like swimming, would have made to much sense. I guess our Canadian roots run deep.
