They also have great books with little projects - how to do very simple step-by-step projects.... I will think a bit longer and if inspiration grabs me I will do a post for you!!! Have a great weekend!!!

I promise to think/write about history journals in the future.

Thanks for the peek! This might be boring for the average reader, but as a still-new-to-homeschooling Mom, I'd love to peep inside one of your Hoods' history journals and see how they work! We have notebooks for RA and Language but haven't had too many bright History ideas yet. How do the timeline figures fit into the journals? We have a room-length timeline running on our wall at the moment - but I think it appeals more to Moms than kids at this stage!
