Welcome to our online Flat Travel Homeschool Scrapbook of all our adventures both at home with our Flat Visitors and our road trips

A Flat Traveler is a laminated paper character (it could be a person but it doesn't have to be)that gets sent to other families in an envelope
for a "visit" and comes home with a log of their adventures, some photos of them in their travels, outings and activities, and sometimes some other souvenirs.
It's a fun way to learn about geography and history, and to engage in writing and drawing, among other things. Not to mention making some friends!
The Flat Travelers Homeschool group was formed to give homeschool families a group of participants to contact world wide. As a member of this group you should be prepared to host Flat Travelers from other families as well.

I found this craft on the Enchanted Learning website.
Canadian Pebble Craft
You can paint a river rock to make a wonderful patriotic pebble. They make great paperweights or decorations.
Supplies needed:
|
| Choose a smooth, flat, elongated river rock and clean it |
| Paint the rock's top white. Let the paint dry. |
| Paint red stripes on both ends of the rock. |
| Paint a red maple leaf in the white central area. If you'd like a shiny finish, coat with an acrylic varnish after the paint has dried completely. |
