Calling All Mothers and Girls

We have a new opportunity this year for moms and daughters ages 5-12 (The moms can be older)  Also preschool girls ages 3-4 can attend if an older sister is involved.
*  We will be using the book Just Mom and Me Having Tea by Mary Murray.

*  Moms will do the Bible studies and some of the mother/ daughter activities in the book BEFORE the monthly tea party.

* We will have a monthly tea party.  Each party has a theme (Formal, Garden, Rainbow, Teddy Bear, etc.) and helps us emphasize each month’s Bible study   (God Made me Special, Friendship, Family Matters, Loving God’s Word etc.)

* Tea parties will be on the 3rd or 4th Thursday of each month–Sept.- Nov. and Jan. – April.

*  Moms will take turns hosting/ co-hosting, planning activities, and planning the menu / bringing the treats.

*  I have ordered books and they will be available around Sept. 7.  The cost is $10.  I only ordered 10.  You can also procure your own.
Those interested in “Mom and Me Having Tea” will need to sign up (by email) for a month to host / help, and also pick up a book by SEPTEMBER 10.

In addition,  if anyone, including a teen, wants to organize social activities monthly for our homeschooled teens, you may have several takers.  Right now there is an honor society for the high schoolers, but not a social outlet per se.

Another idea which has come to my attention is a mentoring program for our new homeschoolers.  We would like to pair up new homeschoolers ( 1st -3rd year)  with willing veterans (4th year and beyond)  for one on one mentoring in homeschooling.  I will announce this at our meeting in September, but we would also love to have both mentors and new home schoolers express their interest by email to Rhonda at veteranmama@yahoo.com.  These pairs can contact each other, ask/ answer questions, meet together, etc.  This would be an informal relationship, but the mentor needs to be serious about being available to help the new homeschooler with their questions, etc.  I just wanted to make this available, so please take advantage if you would like to do this.
