Oh, Yay! You'll love Bigger. That's funny you mentioned repacking the old set for your little one. I was just thinking that the other day! I wondered if she will feel left out when huge boxes full of fun books keep coming for brother and none for her. Hmmmm....may have to get creative. :wink:

So excited for you! We just finished Bigger and had an incredible learning experience with it. I noticed my ds blossom so much while we used Bigger. It is a very meaty guide that teaches very valuable skills. :D :D
Success with organizing and doing Bigger. I look forward to seeing your "Weeks in Review" and enjoying the journey with you and your family. :D

Wow, you are on the ball to have everything already organized and on the shelf! What a wonderful year you have ahead of you. We finished Bigger last week and it was wonderful year here. I think boxing up you LHFHG and letting your son have a box day is a wonderful idea. You could probably even reuse your HOD box that your Bigger things came in. Everyone needs a box day. :wink: :D

That's so fun - I'm glad you got your boxes and are getting organized! :D Wyatt had new boxes last year, and Riley didn't, as he was finishing out an HOD guide. So, I hid his new art supplies around the house for him to find - just his crayons, markers, etc. - but he loved it anyway! Just an idea - happy organizing for your HOD year! :D
