    This is the one I’ve been so excited about since first hearing about it from you all at a homeschooling fair in Lexington, KY this past summer. We are moving back to Michigan and hopefully will be back in time to put Snow and Ice to good use!!!!

    We would love to have the e-book. I recently bought your “Coping with the Cold” e-book; since I am due with our 5th child next week (due on Christmas Day but I would never want to rush God!), I thought that would be a good study to have on hand during my recovery period.

  17. Alicia says:

    Hey Girls!! I’m so excited about this unit…I’ve been waiting! I can’t wait to see what you’ve come up with for creative ideas to do in this crazy below 0 weather here in SD! I need the inspiration, that’s for sure. Thanks for you’re hard work!

  18. Virginia Lee says:

    Wow! You all have the best nature study units. We have done delightful Deciduous Trees, we are doing Coping With the Cold right now and we will be doing Beautiful Birds in February. We just love them all! Can’t wait to see what Snow and Ice is all about. Maybe for March, we live in Colorado and March is our snowiest month. So we would love to be entered in the giveaway.

    I am so excited about the possibility of using this unit with our newly adopted sibling set of 4 children from Ethiopia whom we are going to pick up to bring home on the 26th of December to join our family of 10 already. This will be a wonderful unit to teach them about snow and ice as they adapt to the cold weather in KY and bond with our family! Thank you for producing this wonderful study! I am sure all 12 of my children will love working together on this unit!
