Posted in Homeschooling, and Reviews

Homework: Juggling Home, Work, and School Without Losing Your Balance is an informational and uplifting ebook filled with personal stories from different homeschooling, work-at-home moms. In these tough economic times, many families are looking for ways to increase their family income. For many families, this means that the stay at home parent will rejoin the workforce or one or both parents will take a second job.

Posted in Holidays, and Reviews

Are you looking for a way to bring your family together during Christmas? One good way to bring your family together is to start a tradition of nightly reading. We enjoy reading Christmas books each evening. This year, we have also started an advent book called Just 25 Days ‘Til Christmas. Each day has a devotional story, suggested activities, and a holiday schedule. We’ve been reading the devotional stories (almost) every evening. Next year, we’ll probably incorporate some of the activities. So far, we have enjoyed this book. The holiday scheduling ideas would be a great way to keep your…
