I am a member of the Collective Bias® Social Fabric® Community. This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias and their client Nestle. “Study hard,” I told the kids before their two hour quiet time, “because we’re reviewing our homework with Outshine Fruit Bars!” It’s getting to be the end of October and school is no longer new anymore, so I try to jazz up review time every once in a while to keep… [continue reading]
Teach Them Diligently Kids Program
Our children were accustomed to the homeschool and family conference in Houston that keeps siblings together during the kids program. I don’t know if it will still be that way this year in Houston, but they did the last couple of years anyway. My oldest two girls didn’t miss a beat, but my 4 and… [continue reading]
Teach Them Diligently Conference Omaha 2013

Homeschool day

You know you’re an awesome homeschool mom when…
Teaching Textbooks is the best new decision we made with homeschooling this year. For the first time my kids enjoy math! It is a computer program that gives them instant feedback on their answers! Gone are the days when I’ve gotten five lessons behind in my grading only to realize my daughter was doing them… [continue reading]
Quaver Music
We met Quaver!!! Several weeks ago I received an email inviting me to Crepes with Quaver in Dallas. Thinking it was a promotional dinner for bloggers, I invited my daughter to go with me and signed up to go. Imagine my confusion when I was asked what school district I was with! It was… [continue reading]
First Day of School
The kids were so excited for their first day of school. Yes we still homeschool, but they attend a one day a week school for homeschooled kids. We have had a really great experience there for the last several years. The classes offered are a little different each year. It’s lots of hands on fun… [continue reading]
Library Reading Program
Our public library has a great summer reading program each year. Every child that reads forty hours or more is invited to the Super Reader Party where the mayor himself gives out medals to all the super readers.
