The Valais blacknose sheep is, from this day forward, my favourite sheep breed. They originate in Switzerland, and they look incredible. Despite their distinctive black masks, shaggy hair and ancient pedigree, the Valais blacknose is a relatively rare breed. In this article, we let you know where you can find them.

Though it might be the rose-colored goggles talking, I genuinely feel that the ‘90s was a better, calmer time—especially compared to how complicated and confusing modern life is.

They live in an uneasy alliance with the town of Sweetwater--an alliance that will be tested to its limits by the dual threats of ruthless raiders from the Waste and a deadly force from the Before-time that awaits in long-hidden tunnels.Years ago Isabel befriended a nameless ghost, a supersoldier from the Before-time with incredible powers even after death, and their adventure together in the underworld gave her the strength and knowledge to change the brutal existence of the Catchkeep acolytes for the better. To save Sweetwater, Isabel will have to unlock the secrets of the twisted experimental program from centuries gone by that created the supersoldier and killed his friends: the Latchkey Project.Latchkey continues the story begun in Kornher-Stace's widely acclaimed Archivist Wasp, an Andre Norton Award finalist that was selected by Kirkus Reviews as one of the Best Teen Books of 2015.More Praise for Latchkey\"Nicole Kornher-Stace's Latchkey is a little like retracing a war veteran's scars with a scalpel and asking, 'So. Does this hurt more than the original?' It does, of course. Hurts good, hurts deep, this almost-familiar world that bleeds right into ours, where the only thing fiercer than ferocity is tenderness--though both talk equally as tough...Has there ever been such longing, fueled by such darkness and adrenaline? Has there ever been such satisfaction, and at such a cost?\" --C. S. E. Cooney, World Fantasy Award-winning author of Bone Swans\"Latchkey shows us the power of community and the worth, greater than diamonds, of courage. Cathartic, feminist, explosively imaginative and masterfully told, Kornher-Stace gives us a second-world fantasy that transports our minds while, time and again, it emotionally arrives.\" --Carlos Hernandez, author of Sal and Gabi Break the Universe\"Fierce, blazing, brilliant. The mythic and brutal world of Nicole Kornher-Stace's Latchkey is so richly realized, you don't step into it, you fall.\" --Jacqueline West, New York Times-bestselling author of The Books of ElsewhereCover art by Jacquelin de Leon, jacquelindeleon.com

The actress who died Sunday at age 88 played a housekeeper who, in some ways, was the real mom.

(Image Link)I grew up around a bunch of latchkey kids who walked themselves home from school every day and often had to make their own dinner because their parent(s) were always working.This seemed quite normal, and made it easy to find kids to play with after school, but nowadays most parents wouldn't dream of letting their kids live that latchkey life.Which brings up the question- when is a kid old enough to be left home alone?This chart created by Thirty Handmade Days attempts to answer that question,...

Thanks so much for supporting my efforts with this blog! This is a fun activity that we did to go along with our farm theme during Gv's Latticed Learning time. Ever since a good friend presented baby Gv with the book Barnyard Dance by Sandra Boynton, we have had hours of fun romping and stomping around to the square-dancey verses. So, I figured the perfect activity to go along with it all would be to create an animal action dice game to match the book. I happened to have really cool pocket cubes like these from my classroom, so I chose six animal actions from the book, drew up the cards to match, and stuffed them in the dice pockets. Then we rolled and got moving: Bow to the cow What cracked me up the most is that I'd been the "roller" the first time Gv and I played this game. When it got to the point where we had just one animal left that we hadn't landed on, I dropped the die in such a way to guarantee that it would land sheep-up. I wanted to make sure we'd had the chance to try out each animal action so Gv would know what to do for each one. Well, later that afternoon, Gv began playing with this by herself. She'd roll, call out the animal, do the action, then giggle as she grabbed the die to have another go. It wasn't long before I noticed that she was beginning to throw the cube in a rather odd manner - she was doing the same thing I had done earlier - trying to get it to land on a specific animal so she could do that action. I'm sure this "trick" that I unwittingly taught her will come around to bite me in the heiny someday. Probably while playing Yahtzee . I'm sharing this resource with you today - just print out the free printable, cut out the animal squares, and stick them in your own handy-dandy set of pocket dice. Don't have a set of super-cool dice, you say? No problem. Just adhere these little critters onto each side of a square tissue box (like this) or make your own cube out of cardstock.
