I'd like to know this too!
Anything different from the other guides?

I like to read through the Introduction and Appendix of each guide (with my favorite cup of coffee of course

), as that helps me choose which specific materials I want to use.

I took pictures of what I chose and getting ready for BHFHG here, in case that helps...

Other than that, HOD's plans use common things and offer substitutions. Here is a link in regard to BHFHG's supplies...

Have fun getting ready for your year with BHFHG!

Happy 4th of July, Jenn!

In general, I keep on hand lots of copy paper (we like white cardstock for notebooking, but white copy paper for tracing, folding, etc.), some colored construction paper (large and small), scissors, a ruler, some small index cards, some washable paint and a few paintbrushes, clear tape, masking tape, markers, glitter, liquid glue, glue stick, crayons, colored pencils (if possible), play dough or modeling clay, some yarn, paper punch, pencils, a black Sharpie, stapler - your basic art stuff. We used a 3 ring binder with clear plastic sleeves as a neat portfolio of the year. We also used cotton balls and/or Q-tips from time to time. Things like tin foil, plastic wrap, paper towels, a coffee filter, coffee or tea grounds, etc. from the kitchen are used from time to time too. One time it called for dry laundry flakes - that was the only time I didn't have what I needed on hand. Any food type items are easily substituted based on what you have on hand. That is pretty much it! We always have had the stuff on hand, other than the laundry flakes time. HOD really makes it easy on us moms that way! Have fun with all of the great hands-on stuff in Bigger Hearts, and when in doubt, you can always skim the next week before hitting the grocery store, but I haven't found that to be necessary yet, and we've done every HOD guide so far. HTH!

In Christ,
Julie
