Behind the Scenes with RM on Facebook and Twitter

Blogging is a time-consuming business isn't it!
And I just never seem to have enough time to post everything I would like to here.

I am finding, however, little pockets of time for facebook updates. 

Here are some of the recent 'behind the scenes' photos I've uploaded to the Adventures of a Rainbow Mama facebook page.  Please 'like' us and say helloooo!

My Valentines. For my Valentine. 


I was given a set of Montessori Geometric Form Cards to accompany my home-made Geometric Solids by another homeschooling mama!! Given. Too kind. That was an exciting day :)


We've been receiving lots of parcels (we love the postman!) from The Book Depository. Painting and Drawing in Waldorf Schools was one of our latest arrivals.


Doing Forensic Science experiments and investigating the Electromagnetic Spectrum with a 'Spy Pen' and a UV torch. The ink shows up really well on newsprint so we took turns hiding messages for each other in the local paper. 

Hug wrote me a sweet message in the crossword. Awwww...


Hug completed his first Currclick Lego Club for Homeschoolers class of the year.  Believe it or not my boys luuuuuurve Lego ;) Conveniently Currclick have added a new time slot to their class schedule which means the class is at 1pm (Australia EST time) rather than 6am. Hooray!



Scheduling. 
Planning. 
Piling ;)


I'm in *LOVE* with our new book shelf!

We are packing our lunches this year! It's revolutionised my days! No more trying to organise meals in the gaps between lessons = Mama gets a break too :)

As much as I might *want* to blog regularly, something usually gets in the way. Oh, yeah, that's it - that little thing called LIFE ;)

Jokes aside, I do love this blog :) and I do wish I blogged more. 

And I really would like to continue to grow and connect with the amazing blogging community out there. The world is bursting with inspiring mamas (and papas!) sharing their wisdom and adventures and thoughts on so many things that I thrive on: travel / education / fashion / design / food / life...

It's just the fitting it into an already full life that I struggle with. 
I'm sure I'm not alone :)  How do YOU make space in your life for blogging and staying connected to the blogging community? 

If you haven't already done so, please 'like' our facebook page (Oh! I almost forgot the twitter page :) and leave me a message in the comments here with a link to your own blog if you have one. I look forward to hanging out!

Make a Lego Calculator Cash Register

I can not claim any credit for this brilliance.
Don't you just love the stuff that kids come up with in their own time?

Hug plans on being a Lego designer when he grows up :)
I think he might be onto something.


Do your kids like Lego? A. x

Lego inspired painting

I had both boys home with me today & they were having such a wonderful time playing Lego that I knew it would take something fun to get them into our daily routine.

So, we got painting Lego-stylee.

We used a ruler to block out a grid on our paper with pencil before we began. Mixed up the colors. And dived in.
