Movies for Homeschooling or Sick Days
When my children are sick, we have “a movie day.” When they were younger, they watched cartoons. (I can’t stand cartoons. They irritate me.) Now that they are older – unless cartoons are teaching history – they are not acceptable for our “Movie Day.” So I decided to have a list of movies for the […]
