Disneyschooling: Celebrating Festival of Holidays and the Magic of the Holidays at Disneyland Resort

by lovestalgia November 12, 2019

We were given 3 park hopper tickets to experience the Festival of Holidays and magic of the holidays at Disneyland Resort to share with you. As always all thoughts and opinions are my own!

The Holiday season is in full swing at Disneyland Resort! I love the Fall and Halloween but the Holidays are so special! The sights, sounds, decor, food, entertainment and merchandise really puts you in the holiday spirit! What’s not to love?!?

Since we homeschool, I’ve been trying to find ways to incorporate it into our love for Disney and the holidays are a perfect time because there’s so much going on at the Disneyland Resort to sneak in some learning while you’re having fun! Disneyschooling is a term that combines homeschooling and Disney. There are a lot of homeschoolers who happen to have annual passes or who just love Disney so much. I thought it would be useful to share with you guys some ways to make your visit educational! I’ll also share with you some things you shouldn’t miss.

The Pigeon HAS to Go to School! Do You?

The Pigeon HAS to Go to School! Do You?! The first time I sent A to preschool, I remember having a conversation with her about school. She DID NOT want to go to school. She was scared because she didn’t know what it would be like so I took her to visit. We were able to sit in for 15-30 minutes to experience what school was like. After that day, she was excited because she realized that school was AMAZING and so much fun! It wasn’t scary to her anymore!

Thank-o-Rama with Mo Willems

One of the qualities I always want to instill in A is thankfulness. I think having a thankful attitude does wonders for you mentally and emotionally because you acknowledge all the wonderful things in your life! That’s why I love that during the month of May, Mo Willems has an annual Thank-o-Rama celebration to encourage others to be thankful!

Happy 16th BIRD-day to Mo Willems’ Pigeon Series

You’ve heard me talk about Mo Willems before and it’s because we are huge fans of his books. One of my favorite book series is the Pigeon series. Have you read the Pigeon books before? If you haven’t, you MUST get your hands on one and read it ASAP!

Mo Willems’ Pigeon books have been around for 16 years! The books are humorous, light hearted, and easy to read. We’ve read quite a few of them and we can’t wait to read “The Pigeon HAS to Go to School” when it releases in June!

Graduation Gift Book Ideas For Kids

by lovestalgia April 12, 2019

Before I had my daughter, I remember seeing this idea on Pinterest where you give your child’s teacher a book to sign throughout grades K-12 and then give that book to your child when they graduate from high school! I remember thinking ” I’m TOTALLY going to do that when I have a kid.”

So once A started preschool, I looked around for books. I was going to use “Oh, The Places You’ll Go” but I decided to get a different one. There are so many options for inspirational graduation books as your child starts a new chapter of their life. It was hard to choose but I decided on this one “Wherever You Go.”
