Today's Free Things - ebooks, education deal, coupon

this photo of Xander's cracks me up

Today I took a look at The Prudent Pantry for a list of ebooks that are currently free, though the price could change later. I got the Weekend Homesteader for October. Hey, you never know.

This post at Money Saving Mom lists some good educational deals and freebies. I created an account at XtraMath, a free online math program.

There is also a free chicken sandwich coupon for Sonic here. (You have to buy a chicken sandwich in order to get the next one free.)

We also had a lot of free candy and other sweet things at Nick's preschool Halloween party today. Does that count?

The party included playing with Halloween-themed learning games and the regular items in the preschool room, listening to music, eating treats, and then playing in the big play room. When I asked about their favorite part of the party, both boys mentioned something they played with in the play room. Xander liked playing with a little stuffed animal joey that fit into a mother kangaroo's pouch. Nick liked the rice sensory station.

I was proud of the reading they did in the play room. Xander read aloud to a little girl in the room while Nick put on headphones to listen to an audiobook, turning the pages when the chime sounded. I was also happy to note that they both chose favorite things for the day that did not include candy. Not that a party would be complete for either one of them without treats.
