Pioneer chores
I forget who showed me to this site, but it’s really pretty awesome. Pioneer Handbooks has tons of free, downloadable pdf books dating back to the 1800s. These little books teach all kinds of neat pioneer stuff such as bread making, building, cooking, gardening, medicine, hunting, and so much more.
Can you tell I’m pretty excited about them? I have downloaded and skimmed through the bread making book, since I love making breads of all kinds. I’m going to be downloading other ones, too.
What has this got to do with homeschooling? Well, just imagine you are studying history. What better way to “make it real” than to attempt some of the chores that are outlined in these handy books, and do them in the pioneer way!
