Deals, Steals And Even A Couple FreeBees

The majority of what we use in our homeschool is FREE but there are a few things that I think are worth spending money some curriculum dollars on. All of these items we have reviewed personally and think are wonderful resources for homeschooling families. Listed below you will find the current deals each of these companies are offering right now.

We have done about 6 classes from Founders Academy and absolutely love them. Lynn does a wonderful job teaching children through the live online classroom. It amazes me that she can go from teaching a group of Jr. High/High age children to teaching a group of 5-8 yr old's. She has just added a few NEW classes which are very reasonably priced at $5-$7. Keep an eye out on my blog for a giveaway for one of Lynns courses. You can check out some of her Free convention specials here.
