Join us as we step back in time to ancient Sumer—the world’s first known civilization! Through rich books, hands-on learning, and meaningful discussions, we explored how the Sumerians lived, farmed, and shaped early history. See what we discovered, plus download helpful visuals to enrich your own homeschool journey.

We began with a simple idea: creating a tiny Stone Age home where our Maileg mice would take on the roles of gatherers and hunters. Mathilde carefully constructed a miniature dwelling using sticks and clay, just as people once did thousands of years ago. For the roof, we used a piece of leftover leather from Soft Star Shoes (I knew I’d find a use for it one day—ha!).

This past month, we did a unit study into the human body with a Waldorf-inspired approach. We dove deep into the skeletal system, muscles, digestive system, and more. This study was a beautiful blend of art, science, and storytelling, making complex concepts accessible and engaging.

Mathilde loves dinosaurs and (among other things) dreams of becoming a paleontologist and we keep diving into the subject again and again. Here I will share all the wonderful resources we have used throughout the years.

Our recent Ice Age unit study was an exciting blend of hands-on exploration, literature, and engaging discussions. Inspired by our love for immersive learning, we combined an amazing field trip with beautiful picture books and creative projects to bring this prehistoric era to life.

We all love butterflies in our home so off course we are studying them - here I am sharing our projects and resources about butterflies.
