The Old Schoolhouse Review Crew was asked to review two DVD’s from Dean Butler’s Legacy Documentaries. I received Almanzo Wilder: Life before Laura to review. Dean Butler, producer of Almanzo Wilder: Life Before Laura played Almanzo in the television show Little House on the Prairie from 1979 to 1983, and has since produced this […]
Review: The Sparrow Found a House
Elisha Press, publisher of The Reunion, a book that I reviewed here last year, contacted me recently and asked that I review their latest publication, The Sparrow Found a House: a story of family transformation by Jason McIntire. Thrilled at the opportunity, I agreed. I told my older girls, 8 and 10, to read […]
False Advertising.
Our garden is producing well for us these days. I have piles of squash and green beans to do something with – soon. Tonight, Blaine came in with a pepper. He handed Ruby a bite. She begged for more. I told him he should have given her a spicy pepper. He had. We aren’t spicy […]
Updates.
Remember the day I met my neighbor in Walmart? I made an update later and, well, nothing much has happened since then. I called to see if I could bring them a meal shortly after Christmas and was told, quite firmly, by the wife that they did not need my help. Uncertain what to do […]
TOS Review: The Homegrown Preschooler
Members of the Old Schoolhouse Review crew were presented with the opportunity to review two products from Gryphon House. I received The Homegrown Preschooler: Teaching Your Kids in the Places They Live. Authored by Kathy H. Lee, homeschooling mother to seven and early childhood major, and Lesli Richards, homeschooling mother to five children, including special […]
TOS Review: BrainFood Learning
BrainFood Learning offered three different DVD titles to be review by the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew. I received The Fascinating World of Insects for review. When I was chosen for this review, I was pretty excited to receive Insects. I mean, living in Missouri, we’ve met a multitude of bugs I’d never even heard […]
TOS Review: Preschoolers and Peace – Circle Time
I received a download from Preschoolers and Peace called Circle Time: Plan the Best Part of Your Day! by Kendra Fletcher as part of the Review Crew to read, implement, and review for you all. Kendra is a veteran homeschooling mother to eight children – so if she can do this, I can do […]
Lazy summer days…
Ruby gets full enjoyment out of the swing. You know, as opposed to the lesser enjoyment she gets out of other things in life. No, not so much. Life is full speed ahead and quite the fun game for Ruby. (And she wears this dress about three days a week. As in, every time it’s […]
Disconnected.
Here I sit, typing a post that can’t be published for another two days – I hope it’s only two days, anyway. Life without internet seems strangely quiet. I rather expected to have a bunch more free time, but I don’t. I have a bunch more nauseous and tired time instead. Something about a rolling […]
TOS Review: Couponing Made Simple
I’ve been reading and attempting to learn from Christi the Coupon Coach with her book Couponing Made Simple as part of the Review Crew. I’ve ‘couponed’ before, but never anything spectacular. I’ve had a hard time finding coupons for things that we’d normally buy – but I recognize that if I bought a different brand […]
