Educaching Review

Posted in Homeschooling, and Reviews

Educaching is an innovative curriculum that combines education and geocaching. If you’ve never heard of geocaching, you can think about it as a high tech treasure hunt using your gps. We loved the idea of incorporating our gps into our school day. Munchkin would learn how to use technology, get exercise, and learn all at the same time. Sounds like a plan to me.
