After a decade of homeschooling, I discovered that I am a curriculum junkie. I love pursuing through homeschool curriculum like a little girl flipping the pages of a Sears Wish Book catalog making her dream Christmas list. I have research, tested, even wrote my own when I couldn't find what we wanted to learn. These are the ones that lasted.

You know that book your kiddo begs for the umpteenth reread—the one you’re secretly praying will finally be the last because…it’s just not good? Well, none of those books are on this list. These books are good. I promise.

Teaching your kiddos critical thinking skills through Gameschooling. Can you name a more fun way to learn than through a game? I sure can't.

We all have those spots we love most — a place for our favorite activity, a local restaurant we can’t resist, or the familiar hangout we visit again and again. Here are mine.
