Today's a chance to read some blogs you may have missed because January is usually such a busy month.
Great information is on the internet, but it comes in a flood, not a trickle. It's easy to miss content that may inform, instruct, and entertain you.

How to Grow Sprouts in a Jar — All you need are sprouting seeds, a wide-mouth mason jar, water, and some cheesecloth. In about a week, you'll have a jar full of nutritious, organically grown sprouts which are delicious in salads and stir frys.

Amazon also has many varieties of sprouting seeds. Most people begin with Mung Bean sprouting seeds.

READING
This first link doesn't go to a blog post, but to the Learning Press website. I'm giving it because in the last year when kids are staying home for distance learning, I've heard far too many of them in the neighborhood say they don't like to read.
Some even say they hate it. Moms who are suddenly teaching monitors in the home classroom say their kids struggle with reading. I found All About Reading section on the Learning Press website and thought I'd pass the link along.
I know in this age of XBox and Playstation that kids would rather take the exciting, full color action adventures in a video game, but a kid who has poor reading skills just won't be successful in the real world.
