My kids are all about this FREE mushroom unit study, but not me. Apparently, September is National Mushroom Month. Yes, mushrooms have their own month. This is a fall unit study that “most” families will enjoy. Can you hear the excitement from there?

Mushroom Unit Study

I will be the first to admit that I do NOT like mushrooms. Just the look of them gives me the willies. I know. I know. I am crazy. I am the only one who feels this way in my home. The rest of my family loves mushrooms. They are not grossed out, at all.

All I can think about when I think of mushrooms is those that grow out of the trees. BUT guess what? My family loves them and I still cook them for my family. AND yes, I will be doing this unit study because my kids think it’s awesome. Yay, me!
