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, […]
That’s really, really old.
“Do you know why I’m riding around in my wheelchair? It’s ’cause I’m old.” I acknowledged his elderly state. “Yeah. I’m nine-TEEN.” Old. We had a few kids in to the pediatrician today for physicals. He commented on how my children act, but he said something that struck me. If you can control the mouth, […]
Ruby’s 8.
Saturday was Ruby’s 8th birthday. She breaks my “first five of the kids all look nicely spaced” run each year. We go from 13, 11, 9, 7, 5… 4, 2, and a baby to a free for all. Charlie turns six in a couple weeks and Pierce will be five the week after that. I can only […]
Back to school we go.
We started school on Monday. It was a successful day until I forgot to do English with Sterling and Ruby. We started out Tuesday morning correcting my failings and we’re back on track. Co-op started yesterday and was really a pretty decent first day back. I started out planning not to use the nursery unless […]
Clean-ish floors, back to life, and daycare.
We got home late Monday night. Blaine had Tuesday off, but I had to jump right back in – the girls had a back-to-co-op get together, and perishable groceries were scarce around here. Throw in physicals for a few kids Wednesday and finishing up at another grocery store, and that left me with trying to […]
It’s a zoo around here.
We went to the zoo yesterday here in South Dakota. It’s the zoo I grew up going to, and our zoo pass from Missouri gets us on free here… Except apparently that’s changed this year. We got in at half price. Ten people at half price is still not cheap! Disappointing. Still, we had fun. I […]
