Christmas in Sweden Unit Study

Something that I love about the units I’m writing this month is that each of them is “inspired” by someone I hold dear. Today, I’m writing about Christmas in Sweden in honor of a dear friend of mine!

Christmas Stained Glass Art Project

We all know that hands-on projects can do so much to enhance our kids’ learning, and art is a large part of that.
