Labor Day

Enjoy Labor Day Picture Books!

Did you know? The first Labor Day was observed on a Tuesday! Tuesday, September 5th, 1882 to be exact, in New York City.

A Daily Picture Book has helped me simplify (and look forward to) our morning time. In the past, I have tried to do too much during this part of our school day.

Sometimes it ends up just being the book and that works too as my boys have really enjoyed the selections! It brings me peace of mind that the books are factually sound so if we miss other history, geography, etc. for the day, at least they've gotten a gem of knowledge from our morning time.
