{31 Days} Back to Basics Introduction

It is that time of year again; the time that the nester opens up her
wonderful blog for people to write their own {31 Days} series.  Technically I am posting day 1 a bit early, but as the link up was going to open on the night of September 30th, I figured I might as well get to it!

This year I decided to do Back to Basics as my theme.  Over the past year I have gotten away from a
lot of the green changes that we have made in our family and I want to get back to
them!  I have always said that living a
simple life is not simple.  It is
complicated, it is a lot of hard work, and it is time consuming.  I know that it is easy to fall into the
convenience trap, but that is not necessarily a place I want to be.
I hope that you will join me and share your own tips in the
comments.  I look forward to see what
others will be blogging about as well.
And if you are participating in the {31 Days} challenge, I would love
you to leave a comment so that I can visit your blog!
I will be updating the below list with links to all of my
{31 Days} posts throughout the month.

When I was choosing curriculum for this coming yea When I was choosing curriculum for this coming year I thought I was totally on top of things, just to realize when I was laying everything out that I totally forgot to get science for my 7th grader. 🤦🏼‍♀️

We chatted a bit about what he wanted to do, and what he decidedly DID NOT want to do, and we came up with the #scienceunlocked kits from @homesciencetools 

I am sharing an unboxing of the four kits we chose as well as my first thoughts. 
You can find the video at the link in my profile.

I think that it is going to be a great science year for him!
