Everything Axolotl and Being an Aunt

Everything Axolotl

Sadie loves axolotls. I didn’t know what they were (a type of salamander 😂) until she started talking about them a few months ago and now I know *everything* about them.

I think one of the fun things about homeschooling is that we can incorporate Sadie’s interests into our lessons. This week has been all about axolotls: we read a fact book, crafted, did a research project, and even baked cookies!
