This afternoon, Selah and I went to Walmart to shop for some school supplies to donate to our homeschool co-op through the Elmer's Bag It Forward campaign. We are hoping the kids can get some great use out of these basic things! Check out my Google+ album for more on our shopping trip.
Our community's homeschool group includes about 25 local families. We do lots of great activities throughout the year like science, biography and geography shares.
We also do fun non-academic activities like dances and sports.
One thing that makes our group so successful is that we all work together and help one another. That is why I'm excited about working with Champions for Kids on the Elmer's Bag It Forward Campaign. It's important that children have the resources they need to learn and imagine.
Public and private schools start in just a few short weeks. Many homeschoolers have already gotten back into their school routine. This is a great time to donate some school supplies to local kids. Do you have a favorite kids' organization to which you'll be donating this fall?

I always donate to our local elementary school. My son isn't in school yet, but I know they need all the help they can get!
