It’s a monumental day: Stellan’s bed is now in the boys’ room. He’s eight months old and averaging eating at least four times a night so… It’s time to curb this problem. Or I just get to walk further to nurse him all night long. Or I just created a co-sleeping arrangement, in which I’m […]
TOS Review: Heirloom Audio Productions
I’ve reviewed Heirloom Audio Productions four times before for the Homeschool Review Crew. We’ve loved every G.A. Henty title we’ve received, and this one is no different! Once again, they’ve done a fabulous job turning a great book into an entertaining dramatization, this time with newly released The Cat of Bubastes. Also included with the 2-CD […]
TOS Review: Spencer Learning
The Homeschool Review Crew had the opportunity to review a product from Spencer Learning called Ultimate Phonics Reading Program for the last several weeks. I used this with Pierce, who turns five years old in a few days. He’s doing Kindergarten this year and reading short words. Ultimate Phonics Reading Program is a download for […]
Birthday cake failure
Charlotte turned six yesterday. I planned a beautiful cake. Moist chocolate layered cake, raspberry filling, and vanilla frosting was the plan. It would be perfect.I baked the cake and left it in the pans and headed to the park to meet friends, per Charlotte’s request. I know this is a bad plan but… I did […]
That crazy cat lady.
We got four kittens. Because… mice. Wretched things. (The mice, I mean – not kittens. Most of the time, anyway.) Kittens and I have an interesting relationship. I’ll feed them, water them, give them a doghouse to sleep in, and provide one almost five year old boy to love them pieces. In return I ask […]
TOS Review: KidsEmail.org
The Homeschool Review Crew was recently given the opportunity to try out an Annual Subscription to KidsEmail.org for review. I set up an email address for my thirteen year old daughter Liberty to use for this review. Liberty has been using another email account for a while now, but this change has been pretty cool! […]
The next thing, and then the next.
I stared at my dear youngest child the other day and got this awful sinking feeling. I have so much to teach him. It has been a rough year. He’s not an easy kid. Eight kids is hard. Homeschooling is hard. I. Am. Tired. I have one more baby to potty train. One more baby […]
TOS Review: Armfield Academic Press
With a daddy who studied French at length and received his Bachelor’s degree in the language, all of my kids are fascinated with the French language and thrill in learning a new phrase to greet him when he arrives home from work. When a review opportunity with Armfield Academic Press came up, Liberty was excited […]
TOS Review: CHSH-Teach.com
When I first received my year-long subscription to CHSH Download Club from Christian HomeSchool Hub, CHSH-Teach.com, all I could say was “Wow!” I am reviewing them as part of the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew, and while I thought I had a slight notion what I would be reviewing before I began, it turns out […]
TOS Review: Apologia Educational Ministries
I’ve reviewed Apologia Educational Ministries before. Eight times before, to be exact. And yet, when proposed with the prospect of reviewing yet another publication from Apologia Educational Ministries, I still get excited. I’ve yet to dislike something I’ve received from them, and my shelves boasts every one of the things I’ve received to review. Permastash, […]
