I have a confession to make. I really LOVE M&M’s. Like really, really love them. My favorite NASCAR driver is Kyle Busch – partly (mostly) because he drives the M&M’s car. At least that’s why I chose him as my favorite driver years ago.

But really – I can’t get enough & it seems I’m always picking up a bag of either the Milk Chocolate M&M’s or the Peanut M&M’s & then usually whatever specialty holiday version is out. Because…well, you know they just taste different when they are decorated for a holiday – right??!! 🙂

Cursive Handwriting Practice Sheets

By Kleinworth & Co 8 Comments

Teach your kids cursive handwriting with these Cursive Handwriting Practice Sheets. A great way for them to learn something they aren’t getting in school!

First, let me start off by saying that set out on my homeschooling journey 20 years ago. I have homeschooled my 3 kids since the beginning.

We taught our kids cursive handwriting from the beginning, long before the public schools were removing it from the curriculum. But when I found out that schools were doing this, I wanted to create a resource for parents so that they could still teach this vitally important skill. This is why I feel these Cursive Handwriting Practice Sheets are incredibly important.

DIY Hand Sanitizer

By Kleinworth & Co 2 Comments

You can make your own DIY Hand Sanitizer both with and without rubbing alcohol. Find instructions here and to make either a gel or hand sanitizing spray.

Let me first start by saying that when it comes to germs, nothing really comes close to the effectiveness of washing your hands. I’m talking a good, solid 20 seconds of scrubbing up with some warm water & suds.

But that isn’t always possible & germs are everywhere. With the recent run on hand sanitizer these days, we have to find alternate ways to make the things we need. I’m here to tell you that there are ways you can make your own bottles & tubes of hand sanitizer to help in the effort to kill those germs.
