Welcome to Down Home, San Luis Obispo Classical Academy’s blog! We are a classical school offering several options to make our education work for families with infants through high schoolers. Our signature hybrid program, which is part-time classroom and part-time home instruction, provides an engaging education for preschool through middle school (with full time options available). We also have a university model high school. This blog is meant to support and encourage on the home front because, in so many ways, the heart of what happens at SLO Classical Academy happens down home.

Semper discentes—always learning together.

Summer 2014: Outdoor Fun

{source}

During the summer we’re always wanting our kids to play outdoors, so today we have a few outdoor games and activities to share to help keep your kiddos busy and healthy. Here are a few suggestions to try next time they ask “What can we do?”:

{source, source, source, source}

1)Chalk dress up dolls, from The Iowa Farmer’s Wife (and here are more chalk games),  

2)Spray chalk, from The Clever Pink Pirate

3)Make your own hula-hoop, from Six Sisters’ Stuff 

4)Glow in the dark bowling, from Kix

5)River out of tinfoil, from Hus & Hem (you’ll have to just go off the photo for this one, unless you read Swedish), 

6)Ice cube sailboats, from Alpha Mom

7)Mud Pie Kitchen, from Inner Child Fun

8)Solar S’mores, from Spoonful

And here’s a Summer Activity Ideas List to inspire a few more ideas…

We will see you this Friday evening for the Soaring with Singapore math training! And don’t forget about the parent reading group next week – we look forward to discussing The Read-Aloud Handbook by Jim Trelease with other SLOCA parents next Thursday, July 31 at 7pm!
