FREEBIE Friday: From The FRUGAL Lady

WESTWARD HO!

Howdy all! Today's FREEBIE Friday will be dedicated to those brave & adventureous souls who chose to travel and settle the American Frontier, oh so many years ago. The "Bug" and I have began the Keepers At Home program & will be getting other homeschoolers to join us soon. We decided to add Pioneer Life unit to our studies this fall in hopes that it will add to what she is learning in Keepers. Here are some great FREEBIES & Finds to help discovery the wonder that was Frontier living. So enjoy your freebies all you new brave & adventoureous souls who homeschool!
