Ancient Egypt Homeschool Resource: Mysteries of the Nile
I had wanted to find the perfect ancient Egyptian resource. An ancient Egyptian resource which would not only be interesting to the children, but also to me. I had already taught this era to my older three children and I needed something which would give a spark to it second time round. Mysteries of the […]

Carole P. Roman – Children’s Book Author {Review}
It is so unusual for vendors to send their products over to the UK, which in general limits me to reviewing online products, so I was thrilled to receive not one, but four books from the very talented Carole P. Roman! I have reviewed Carole’s books before and always found them a very good fit […]

Progeny Press {Review}
I am a huge fan of the literature e-guides from Progeny Press so I was very excited to have been chosen to review The Bears on Hemlock Mountain E-Guide for Grades 1-3. I bought each little girl a book of their own and downloaded and photocopied the guide straight from my computer. I was ready to […]

Doctor Aviation {Review}
A month or so ago the review crew were given the opportunity to be on a rather unusual review – a video course all about Aviation from Doctor Aviation. Aviation…how cool is that? Of course with a fifteen year old male in the house, we jumped at the chance and we are so pleased we […]

We always have slow cooker gammon ham, chips and vegetables, which requires very little work from me, and we always watch a film. We have collected quite a collection of Christian and family friendly dvds, and are always on the look […]

Hands on History with Home School in the Woods {Review}
I am fast becoming Home School in the Woods biggest fan! I was blessed once more when I was chosen as one of the reviewers of their Time Traveler American series.

My two younger daughters have been enjoying art lessons from the Entire Level II from ArtAchieve. ArtAchieve is a company which offers cultural art lessons based in a country of the world and comes with extensive extra curricula ideas for extending the student’s learning past just an art lesson.

Planet 316 {Review}
A few weeks ago we were given a new review product, Daily Bible Jigsaw from Planet 316. I settled down each night looking forward to completing the puzzle of a day, only to find my husband had got there before me! So this review, although written by me, contains all my husband’s thoughts, because, y’know, he […]

CompuScholar, Inc. {Review}
I was immediately intrigued by the courses offered by CompuScholar, Inc. the company formerly known as Homeschool Programming. We use the computer in our school every single day and yet have never taken the time to do any sort of course or increase our understanding of information technology. I thought the beginner course, Digital Savvy, would be too […]
