All of these elements are designed to work together so you have a complete lesson plan about the solar system!

November

BASKETBALL DAY is November 6 the birthday of James Naismith. Naismith invented basketball to be played inside during the winter. Did you know the first basketball game was played with a basket and a soccer ball? It’s true! Celebrate this holiday and introduce, or review the states and capitals with our MAP THE NBA ACTIVITY.  

December

December 27th is National Fruitcake Day, and January 3rd is Toss Your Fruitcake Day. This set of holidays will be remembered for many, many years – especially if your children have not been exposed to fruitcake before. There are plenty of Math-related activities inside the FRUTICAKE FUN PACK that are based on both the fruitcake tasting activity and everyone’s favorite: the fruitcake toss. 

January

Benjamin Franklin was Born on January 17th. It’s also KID INVENTORS DAY in honor of Franklin who was a kid inventor himself! Help your kids explore 6 different kid inventors showing them the sky is the limit, and age does not determine ability! Videos as well as informative articles included to make this an easy, no prep activity. 

February

I will not lie, GROUNDHOG’S DAY, February 2 is my FAVORITE for many reasons – the biggest is that it’s my birthday. Begin GROUNDHOG DAY HISTORY  BEFORE February 2nd by making your own prediction about whether the world’s most famous groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil will see his shadow or not. Then confirm your predictions and complete the activities anytime after Groundhog’s Day. 

March

Ready for a little intrigue? Experts still can’t truly agree on who truly invented the telephone first. It’s a History Mystery. Use the slide presentation, Happy Hive Homeschooling’s exclusive teaching video and the included handouts to explore the controversy surrounding Alexander Graham Bell for LANDLINE TELEPHONE DAY on March 10TH. 

April

As a classroom teacher, my “theme” was superheroes.Truly there are heroes for everyone, and celebrating NATIONAL SUPER HERO DAY on April 28th is Mrs. Crabtree’s favorite holiday for April. 

There truly is something for every hero in your home in this activity pack. A few highlights include: 

A superhero search (word search of superheroes), a super hero themed scavenger hunt (can you find items the same colors as the infinity stones? ) and a video lesson with comic history and fun facts about many beloved characters. 

May

This would NOT BEE a collection of Mrs. Crabtree’s favorites if it didn’t include World Bee Day May 20th! 

Spring is the perfect time to spend a little time in nature and our study of BEES, FLOWERS & POLLINATION is a perfect way! Links to a popular kids science show, diagrams and a craft this is a well-rounded nature study. Your older kids can use the informational text passages and draw their own diagrams as an extension activity. 

June

Anytime we can use food for learning, I’m in. National Eat an Oreo Cookie Day on June 19th does not disappoint. Starting the day out with some oreo cookie pancakes is the perfect segue into the OREO COOKIE TASTE TEST. This is a fun filled lesson designed to get the whole family involved.
