While there are plenty of educational websites, there are also many free educational apps, if you want to switch your focus a little bit.

Plus, there are so many brilliant educational apps out there that it makes sense to take advantage of them during this complicated time.

Diabetic Facts

More than 34 million people in the United States have diabetes, and 1 in 5 of them don’t know they have it.

More than 88 million US adults—over a third—have prediabetes, and more than 84% of them don’t know they have it.

Diabetes is the 7th leading cause of death in the United States (and may be underreported).

Type 2 diabetes accounts for approximately 90% to 95% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes; type 1 diabetes accounts for approximately 5-10%.

In the last 20 years, the number of adults diagnosed with diabetes has more than doubled as the American population has aged and become more overweight or obese.

Homeschool

Homeschool has gone good. It is exhausting but in a good way. So far it has been smooth sailing. I am basically seeing what all the grandkids know and what all they are capable of doing. It is interesting watching their minds work. We have created paper dolls, pictures, and played in our centers. They practice writing their names and learning Bible verses that correspond to the letters of the alphabet. So far this week our verse has been A`~ for Romans 3:23. I have explained what the verse actually means, which is very important for young minds to know. We have sang songs, both religious and non religious, watched learning videos, Sesame Street, and so forth.

Here are some pictures from our first week so far:

It has been fun.I always enjoy my grandkids anyway.
