There is an iPad on the couch, a movie playing through the XBox streaming Netflix on the television, and the Kinect is resting in front of the TV.  All within 8 feet of where I sit. It’s everywhere.

Homeschooling has changed so much over the 13 years since we first began....

Random babblings of a fiber-obsessed nutcase - Happy Boxing Day!

Although in our house, we pronounce it "Bookstore Day"! :lol: The kids (and I) got B&N cards for Hanukkah, and they (and I) got Half Price cards for giftmas (no matter HOW many times we explain that we DON'T celebrate giftmas, the grands and IL's won't listen. :sigh:), so we headed out this AM to cash them in. At B&N I scored 2 art books - a Watercolor how-to, and a "How to Draw Star Wars" for Himself. I NEED to get him more excited about art, and this *might* do it. I hope. Both kids spent...

If you don’t have a homeschool ID card yet, you can get one free at the Homeschool Buyers Co-op! We did this last year, and just last month I updated it to reflect our new First Grade year and new photo. Here’s our updated Homeschool ID. I used Photoshop to gray out identifying details to post on our website.

Although this service is absolutely free, and you can print out and laminate at home, this year I chose to order a card from their Print option. I ordered two and they arrived...

Too Many B's: Homeschool ID Cards

Maybe it's never happened to you but, I'm all too familiar with the situation. Picture this, I'm checking out in a store that has been know to give educator discounts. When I tell the cashier I home school they ask for proof. "Oh, okay, ummmmmm, well....what kind of proof are you talking about?" They then respond with, "Well, I don't know. Don't you have something?" Well, as a matter of fact....I DO! Say good bye to the stammer and stutter response. Now you can pull the proof right out of your...

Trivium Pursuit » Blog Archive » Homeschooling in Iowa in the 1970′s

After consulting with a lawyer who was representing other homeschooling families in Iowa, we narrowed our options down to four: 1. We could allow the school district to take us to court, but the lawyer told us that would be expensive and we were guaranteed to lose in the end because the Iowa Supreme Court had already ruled, and they weren’t about to reverse their own ruling. 2. We could stall for a time, but there were no guarantees as to how long. 3. We could go to jail, and although this...
