When I started blogging with my kids wasn’t totally sure about what to do, so I just jumped in and got started. Things went well, but at the beginning of the this year, I reflected on last year’s blogging and realized a couple things I wanted to change.

The most important “concept” I wanted to reinforce even before we started blogging was that blogging is about communicating and having a conversation of ideas. I wanted my kids to get the concept and importance (sharing ideas and learning/communicating information in an interactive technology) of blogging before we started.

I found some great ideas from the links below and then modified it to fit my kids and my needs.
