Woo hoo!  July is our birthday month!  It has been four years since we started Classical Composers Monthly with one little ole composer collection, and silly me, I thought that was all we would do.  Ha.  Ha ha.  hahahahahahahahahaahaha!  And so just like any baby, we grew and we grew and got bigger and more complex.  🙂  This year we launched this beautiful new site and changed our name to Enrichment Studies, to better communicate what we have to offer.  And in July, we are celebrating!
1. Â Pop-Up Giveaways every day in July! Â That’s right. Â Every day this month I am randomly picking one of our social media channels/connection points to publicize a giveaway that four people will win. Â You will want to be following us on all of these so you have the best chance of winning:

2.  Back to Homeschool Facebook Party on July 21!  Our last party was a blast, and this one is going to be even better!  We will have fun, prizes, good stuff from some of my favorite homeschool businesses, and….an after-party DANCE PARTY!!!  So, sign up for reminders so you don’t miss a thing, and invite your friends, too, because it’s gonna be fast and fun.  🙂

In my neck of the woods a lot of folks are done with schooling for the year,  (not US, oh lawsy nosirree…..) but in many parts of the country people go through June.  Hopefully I haven’t missed you with these fun Last Day of School printables!  It’s even fun to do with big kids.  For reals.  🙂

Isn’t that just beautiful? Â And, homeschool moms: Â in the years to come your kids are going to appreciate all the good that they are receiving from you, too!
I love this quote (and find it so encouraging) that I also selected it to be a part of our Quotes from U.S. Presidents Penmanship and Copywork ebook. Â You can get a free sample of it, which features this quote, when you go to this page here. Â It’s totally free to download and print out and use with your kiddos. Â Feel free to share with your homeschooling friends too! Â (and why not work in some Mom Appreciation straight from a Founding Father into the school day, right?!)
