TOS Review: Wee-Books

Posted in Homeschooling, and Reviews

Homeschooling moms (and dads) are a busy group. We usually have way too many things on our plates, and we’re always trying to figure out how we’re going to fit it all in. We often are running on low and don’t have much time to refuel. We may not always have the opportunity to connect with other homeschooling moms (or dads) to gather much needed information and support. The Old Schoolhouse has put together an easy way for us to refuel. Wee-books offer a chance to glean information from fellow homeschoolers and refresh ourselves. On our own time schedule, we…

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.

Homeschool Radio Shows

Posted in Homeschooling, and Reviews

Around Thanksgiving, I ran across a homeschooling family that put out the old time radio shows on the internet for free. I subscribed and received a fun series called Cinnamon Bear. We listened to one episode each evening up until Christmas (unfortunately, we didn’t finish due to illness). We had a blast listening to this series, so I subscribed to Living Books For the Ears. Each week, they send out a different program for your listening pleasure. Best of all, this is all free to you. They do have different cds available for sale as well, but they do not…
