Family Education: Family History Package
"Six how-to articles (excerpted from the official Ellis Island Foundation publication ""Do People Grow on Family Trees?"") and a set of printable forms comprise this family history lesson from Family Education. The section on conducting family interviews is excellent, with advice such as ""Start with easy, friendly questions."" There is also a printable checklist of interview questions, not found in same section, but rather in Genealogy Forms. Look in the lower left-hand corner of the home page for the link."

FamilyFun: Gardening Projects
"These six fun craft projects take gardening one step further. For example, craft number two is a sock mouse for your cat with catnip you’ve grown yourself. My favorite is a practical joke done with a pickle. ""The object here is to astound your friends with a little horticultural sleight of hand. They’ll be in a pickle wondering how you managed to squeeze that great big vegetable through that skinny little bottleneck."" Click through to page six to learn more."

Diamond Jim
""YES, Diamond Jim can even perform miracles for you across the Internet. Click a card, any card below, to be amazed!" Diamond Jim presents five tricks: Flag Trick, Card Trick, ESP Trick, Hypno Disk and Date Trick. Hypno Disk is an optical illusion that didn’t work for me -- and the Card Trick is performed better at the Cave of Magic (see above), so my favorite is the Date Trick. You’ll need a one dollar bill — better get one now — you won’t want to miss this one!"

Composting for Kids
"Composting is fun! It’s also easy. Let’s learn about how we make compost and how we use it to grow beautiful gardens. Learning how to compost was one of the very first tasks I took on when we moved into our big-yard house. Not only is it satisfying to create our own nutritious mulch for the vegetables and flowers, but it is also ecologically and economically sound. Kids (and parents) can learn how in this simple slide presentation."
