Happy Thanksgiving 2022!

"As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases." https://homeschoolspecneedstidbits.com/affiliate-disclosure/   Thanksgiving is the time to feel gratitude for everything that we have. It is not only the celebration, but also the spirit of thanks that makes this holiday so special. If we think about our life, and ourselves we should thank the clouds for giving us rain, the trees because they give us fruit, the earth because it gives us a place to live. Our parents for giving birth to us, our friends, for sharing our thoughts and being with God and us for giving all these. Thanksgiving Screensavers can help us remember all these and fill us with an attitude of gratitude. Let me tell you how to choose and download the Thanksgiving Screensavers.  Message and Impact - When you view a screensaver, it should make you feel good. It should make you feel truly grateful. The colors should be very pleasing to the eyes. The font sizes and the effect of text should be...

November is Here and we are in a tridemic.... ARGH!!!

"As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases." https://homeschoolspecneedstidbits.com/affiliate-disclosure/ Hello November! How was your Halloween? Ours was celebrated the week before because that is how we roll, LOL! Although my kiddoes are now a teen and an adult, we still had our candy, watched a scary episode of American Horror Story:  Coven  ( never again ). My oldest loves that stuff but for my autistic teen son and myself it was definitely something that we would not want to experience again. Don't get me wrong, if you are into really dark, true story history then by all means go for it. On a lighter note, we watched the new Minions movie , and it was pretty awesome!      What's in the News.... We are officially, at least here in the PNW, in a tridemic -what the heck!? I am so very tired of all of this and thankful that our family jumped on it as soon as the new vaccines were available. Now we are hearing of the scarcity of av...

Kids' parties and adult get-togethers can both benefit from some creepy food. From freaky finger foods to ghoulish drinks, you can serve up a memorable meal! Here are some spooky recipes for Halloween, from classy and fun to ghastly and delicious! Cheese and Deli Meats Cheese and deli meats may not be the scariest foods around, but you can cut these flat foods into Halloween-themed shapes, like ghosts, pumpkins and cats. The more orange the cheese, the better! Then layer them on crackers and add details with black olive slices for spooky hors d'oeuvres. Mummies-in-a-Blanket Use your favorite pig-in-a-blanket recipe but wrap a full-sized hot dog with dough rather than the small weenies. Press peppercorns into the top of the dough for eyes.

" As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases." https://homeschoolspecneedstidbits.com/affiliate-disclosure/ 1. Overnight Oats 2. Avocado Toast 3. Waffle Taco brought to you by kroger.com/health I thought that these ideas were fabulous for crazy breakfast mornings, but what really caught my eye was that they were incredibly easy, nutritious and doable by an autistic teen, adult or young elementary student, depending on their abilities and challenges.  I love how yummy they look as well and most of the ingredients can be found in your fridge, freezer or pantry, Yay!! For this homeschool mom, these recipes were a win-win in my book. I hope that you all have a safe and successful year with your kiddoes.  Enjoy and most of all Have Fun!! ~ MomAdvocate

"As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases." https://homeschoolspecneedstidbits.com/affiliate-disclosure/ Happy Monday Beautiful People! It is already the 1st of August and school is literally just around the corner. We are very excited about this school year and are also very blessed to be able to homeschool as well. Do you have all the supplies you need for your school needs? If you are a homeschooler for the first time this year you may wonder what types of school supplies are needed. You are in luck (depending on what kind of homeschooling) you are doing. For instance, if you are a family that has opted to stay fully remote with your local school district, your school supplies may already be supplied for you. ( Check your local school district ).  On the other hand, you may be fully homeschooling, and this is your very first time, as I mentioned above. In this case, purchase only what you need for the age(s) of your children.  Below I will give y...
