Pilot frixion erasable pens! My new favorite is the clickable gel pens.

[@PursuingPeace]

Oooooo.....yes! Those frixion pens are fun! 😁🤓

[@Homelifelearning]

Mine too

[@jenniferharley8987]

My 4.5 year old has discovered my frixion pens....he calls them magic pens

[@cheriek3872]

The best!!!

[@dominique573n9]

My daughter refuses to use pencils now!! She loves these pens 🤣

[@jenniferharley8987]

try plain white tooth paste to remove marks. rub it in and let it dry. scrub off with a damp scrubbie. I took sharpie off my kitchen table this way 😊

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh wow! I've never heard of that before! I'll have to try it! Thanks Jennifer! 😁👍

[@KRBrady1984]

I just did this minutes ago on my white board. The 2 year old found a pink sharpie 🤦‍♀️ Toothpaste is amazing!

[@tiny.terrorist.negotiator]

Newbie homeschooler here. I have been bingeing your channel to get ideas!!! I am terrified and overwhelmed and your channel helps so much.

[@tammyjohnson9382]

My teacher had that pen too! 🤣 Love this video!

[@melisaserocki7250]

OMG your honest excitement over the pen with the changing ink color in the KiwiCo box...😂 I remember those too when they came out! Total flashback to my school days...😂

[@Jessi4JC]

I love Twistables. I forgot how much I love Twistables. BRB, going to buy Twistables. 🤣

[@PursuingPeace]

🤣🤣🤣

[@christinabeebe6676]

I truly love your energy and giggle! Thank you for sharing. 🤗

[@PursuingPeace]

Aw! Thanks Christina! 😊❤

[@ashmc9754]

I'd let the kids paint it then clear coat it to protect it and clean easier... I'm weird tho I let them paint our table to and it looks amazing with awesome memories!.

[@SevenInAll]

I used a happy planner for years and loved them! I can't buy them locally so I'm using something else now that I also like, but I liked seeing yours!

[@ashmc9754]

I love my happy planner so much I ordered extra disk to make another just for nature study " curriculum ".

[@kristinw7551]

I love all your videos! we're new to homeschooling and I find your videos to be so helpful!

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh I'm so happy I could help! ❤

[@onehomeschoolundergodoneho8668]

Your laugh is contagious

[@PursuingPeace]

😀

[@SimplyLivingIt]

Haha! I have "my pen" too! The boys know not to touch it!!! Hahaha!

[@SimplyLivingIt]

Can you sand the box lightly to remove the marks?

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh! I hadn't thought about sanding. 🤔👍

[@nancystevens8475]

Lol! I feel you! I love, love, love all the pens, stickers, planners and notebooks!

[@PursuingPeace]

Yes! I can't get enough of all that stuff! The real reason I homeschool is so I have an excuse to walk down the office supplies aisle. Ha!

[@SummerMeyers]

Oh my gosh, your baby's little pony tail! She is adorable cruising around in her high chair! 💕

[@PursuingPeace]

😁 Thanks Summer! She loves being pushed around in that thing. Ha!

[@catiemason1551]

I am so glad I found Katies video about her favorites

[@PursuingPeace]

Yay!!! She's a wealth of knowledge! ❤

[@noeminakolar2151]

I would paint the pencil holder with chalk paint so you can put some verses or similar on it :)

[@PursuingPeace]

Ooooo.....that's a great idea! ❤

[@samibuck]

Your baby in the highchair was soooo adorable! 💕

[@PursuingPeace]

Aw! Thanks Sara! ❤

[@cheriek3872]

Haha had to laugh about tripping over those dang high chair legs 😂 But it sure is handy!!

[@PursuingPeace]

YES! HA! I love this chair...but every time I trip over those legs I want to throw it out the window! HA!

[@kaitlync15]

Your pen, earrings and shirt all match 😂💕

[@PursuingPeace]

Ha! The shirt and earrings were on purpose. I didn't even notice the pen until you mentioned it. I guess I like this color! 🤣

[@KRBrady1984]

I am in the process of finding the right table and chairs right now. My 6 year old is too tall for the toddler table. So this is great and super helpful. We are in a toss up between desks or 1 table.

[@PursuingPeace]

I know! I might try desks at some point, but I need to help all of them so we're doing one table for now. But desks look so cute and it's neat to have your own space. :)

[@TheEclecticHomeschooler]

Great video! Always fun seeing what other homeschool moms use and love. I have the IKEA shelves too and love them!

[@PursuingPeace]

They really are the best!

[@Mariellen_]

Love that pen/crayon organizer. I have a bigger one for our homeschool area but this would be perfect for my sons desk in his room. Thanks for sharing!

[@PursuingPeace]

So happy I can help Mariellen! ❤😁

[@victoriouslyvicky7883]

Girl! I am gonna need a closer look at how you do your planner!!!!! Ok! I need to watch that video! Can I say how happy I am to be able to play your video in front of my girls and let them also watch a and listen.

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh I'm so happy you and your girls watch it together. Fun times! ❤

[@jenniferbonutti2158]

Loved all your stuff. Definitely learned some new things to use in my homeschool. Thanks for a great video!!!

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh I'm so happy it was helpful Jennifer! 😁❤👍

[@Abiding.Farmhouse]

That is the perfect pencil holder!

[@PursuingPeace]

Thanks! I do love it! And it's so easy to more around the house when we need to. 😁👍

[@eatonpartyofsix3229]

I also love those containers! I use the smaller one for my washi tapes, stickers, and yes of course special pens. :-) I love my muji gel pen lately.

[@PursuingPeace]

Great idea!! 😍

[@endlessundoneprojects]

I am just so impressed by you and the other homeschooling moms, I have only one child and she is only 1 and I don't know how I will do anything when I have another child let alone home school

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh I was right where you are mama! I was SO nervous to have my 2nd baby. Good news is that God doesn't drop it all on you at once. 😁 He gives you time to learn and grow in a skill as you do it more. ❤ Just take one day at a time. 😁

[@cobanancy28]

I love you video, I learn so much from you. My favorite video is when you talk about the ABC devotion book. It been the best book for my 3 and 4 year old thank you.

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh wonderful Nancy!!! I LOVE that devotional book! We're planning on using it again next year. :)

[@harmonymiller7999]

Love it! Thanks for sharing!!

[@PursuingPeace]

Thank YOU! ❤

[@LifeintheMundane]

Love that pencil holder

[@PursuingPeace]

Right?! It was a complete accidental find at Target! 😁🙌

[@LifeintheMundane]

I have always wanted those latch mats bins and I finally got one last summer!!

[@PursuingPeace]

I don't know how I organized ANYTHING before! Ha! I've actually been using them since I first started homeschooling. 😁🤓

[@RoadtoFIRE]

Okay I need to get organized like this!!

[@PursuingPeace]

It's SO easy to be organized with these bins! They make me look good! Ha!

[@lmr2797]

You will cherish those marks in years to come 💘

[@PursuingPeace]

YES!!!! Perspective! ❤❤❤

[@MissLuluKawaii]

I totally get the pen thing! Good pens make my handwriting better.

[@PursuingPeace]

YES!!!! It REALLY does! 👏👏👏

[@shaialguno9788]

Love your hauls and your homeschool favorites. Thank you for sharing them! And yes, what is your video about these stuff without the bins. Hahhahaha

[@PursuingPeace]

Thanks Shai! Ha! Yeah I do mention those bins a lot! I just love them! 😁❤

[@shaialguno9788]

@@PursuingPeace it seems really useful and many people would agree to that. Thanks to you!

[@lifewithginab]

So good to see your favs Dina! I want to try kiwico in the near future! Looks like such a fun subscription box 🙂

[@PursuingPeace]

Hi Gina! It really is! We're doing them today and the kids look forward to it all week! So fun!

[@NotSoPerfectHomeschool]

Love it Dina!!! Thanks for sharing!!! I wanna get that pencil organizer thing!!!!

[@PursuingPeace]

Thanks friend! Isn't it so great?! 😁❤

[@EricaLucasLoves]

I think i need those felt tip pens in my life

[@PursuingPeace]

YES!!! They are SO soft and write so smoothly! ❤

[@thebackpackfamily2836]

Love the outtakes

[@PursuingPeace]

Ha! Thanks! 😁

[@tiffp323]

Dina I am so in awe of how you are just so spirit filled and have so much together with 5 kids. I only have one baby (she’s 7.5 months) and I am constantly overwhelmed. I would really love to homeschool in theory but I know I wouldn’t be so organized and thorough and would jeopardize my baby’s learning lol but I am not in agreement with everything being taught in public schools and so this is tearing my heart that I will be sending my daughter off to be indoctrinated with things that go against the Word of God. I also live in NY and briefly looked at the homeschool guidelines. Seems to be very strict. Idk I guess I come to your channel for encouragement bc I enjoy your calming and joyful presence and hope to be more like you (and ultimately more like Jesus) prayers are welcome! Lol God bless Also, just for fun what are you all doing this summer?!

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh sweet mama! You don't need to be like me to homeschool well. I'm nothing special within myself. It's only through Christ that I can do any of this. So just seek after Him. Your homeschool will look different than mine and that's more than ok! ❤ Christ can be in both and as long as your little one sees Him....you are doing it right. 😉

[@PursuingPeace]

For summer we are just doing unit studies here and there. This week we're taking a break so I can work on the school room and some other planning. 😁 You?

[@RockSimmer-gal4God]

We use personal pencil cases. I love my pen as well!!! U could paint over the marks on the pencil holder. My personal pen is a ink pen. My 10 yr olds use a ink pen as well. Mine is a cartage pen and my kids wanted old fashioned ones that u dip the pen in. I hate dated Planers. We re use wat we can. We onli buy ink pens once and buy the cartridges or ink wells as needed.

[@PursuingPeace]

Oh that's really cool! I want to do that eventually with my kiddos, even if it's just a few times for exposure to ink. :)

[@suleykagonzalez-okeefe2030]

I just went to Michael's and got a few latch bins. They were $8.99 each!

[@PursuingPeace]

Nice! Great price!

[@chrissy9876]

My sister is your doppelgänger legitimately. I appreciate this video, but I kept sending screenshots to my sister b/c you look just like each other lol!

[@PursuingPeace]

Lol!!!! That's hilarious! I'd love to see a pic. Can you DM me? I don't think I've ever had a doppelganger before! Ha!

[@stephaniemartin6434]

What size are the bins you show in this video. 14.5? Those will be perfect for my 4 kiddos. I loved this video. This last year was my first year, and so many of these will be so handy going forward. Thank you.

[@PursuingPeace]

Hi Stephanie! Yes it's the 14.5 qt. 😁

[@stephaniemartin6434]

@@PursuingPeace thank you for replying. Ordering some now.

[@angelaxdawnx]

Hey girl! What size are the latch mate boxes that you talk about from Michael’s? To hold the kids curriculum?

[@PursuingPeace]

Hi! They're the 14.5qt. 😁

[@PursuingPeace]

Thank you! ❤

[@joybomb90]

Where did you score that fabric storage bucket from?

[@PursuingPeace]

Do you mean the one behind me? That was actually given to me by a friend. Her husband made the lid. Sorry! I would think there's something similar at Ross or TJMaxx.

[@Mary-pr4kx]

IKEA also makes junior chairs that match your dining/school chairs. Smaller kiddos love them because they can sit up taller and they look just like the adult chairs!

[@PursuingPeace]

I saw those! They're SO cute! 😍

[@busterproductions1134]

Hi

[@Mariedavis347]

Hi! What is the name of the table from IKEA?

[@PursuingPeace]

Hi! I think it's called Lennon.

[@ohgeezhannah]

Do you know which size of the latchmate bins you have?

[@PursuingPeace]

I believe it's the 14.5 qt.

[@bdsc1978]

👋hi!! Your kids are just so so cute! I sent you a message on your DM!! Thank you 😊💓

[@PursuingPeace]

Hmmm....I don't know if I got it. What's your handle on IG?

[@rshake1]

Is it possible to homeschool without an entire room? I don't have the space for a dedicated room.

[@ruthgirton6093]

Absolutely! We homeschool at our dining table and I keep a lot of our homeschool things in our buffet.

[@SimplyLivingIt]

YES! We've been homeschooling for almost 9 years! NO HOMESCHOOL ROOM HERE!!!!!!🙋‍♀️🤷‍♀️💗💗💗

[@PursuingPeace]

YES! This is actually the first time we've had a HS room. Before we used the dinning room table and that worked perfectly! 😉

[@rshake1]

Thanks ladies! I was so worried I wouldn't have room.

[@erint6540]

We did our first 4 years of homeschooling without a room! Just did it at the dining table! Now we do have a room, but you definitely don't need it!

Just found latchmates and had been debating on getting them , i did get them and they are amazing for homeschooling storage!. Love the sizes got one of each and filled them up so fast.
