I'm a big fan of Theme Days. You may remember last month when I declared every day for a week a Colored Theme to teach Kaylin her colors.
Last year, I had high hopes of doing several different Theme Days in December, but they didn't happen. Well, one did. We had "G Day" - kind of by accident, and it was fun. I recently ran across a homeschooling blog that had ideas for every letter of the alphabet (plus teachable, pre-school activities) and I can't find it for the life of me. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, please leave me a comment with the website address!
Niki at Free to be Frugal just posted a link to watch 101 Christmas Classics at this site. (you'll notice that movies go along with most of my theme days...)
A few other ideas for "Theme Days" include:
- "S" day (stir fry, sledding, The Santa Clause movie)
- "H" day (hamburgers, hot chocolate, Home Alone movies)
- "C" day (cinnamon rolls, chicken fingers, Christmas cookies, A Christmas Carol movie)
- "P" day (pink piggie pancakes, PB&J, pepporoni pizza, popcorn, Polar Express movie)
- "Green" day (wear green, add green food coloring or pureed green veggies to foods throughout the day, make Wreath Christmas Cookies, watch The Grinch)
- "Starbucks & Stories" night (go grab a drink and tell everyone about your favorite Christmas stories)
Do you have any other ideas for Theme Days? Tell us in the comments.

Heck yeah, every day around here is a Theme Day! Monday is 'Survive Monday' Day, Tuesday is 'Be Thankful Monday is Over' Day, Wednesday is 'How Do I Get Through a Non-Preschool Day?' Day, Thursday is 'How Do I Get Through a Non-Preschool Day? Part Two' Day, Friday is 'I Just Don't Care Anymore Because It's Almost the Weekend' Day, and Saturday and Sunday are 'Go Away Boys, Mama Wants Time to Herself' Days.
See? ALWAYS a theme here! :-)
