Homeschooling,  Inspiration

Excitement is Building..maybe a little nervousness

This morning I went to the Mardel Education Sale!  Since I have SONLIGHTs CORE 1, I was looking to buy Horizons Math I and maybe a Science program.  All education items are 20% off.  Unfortunately, they did not have Horizons 1, I quickly grabbed a Saxon Grade 1 Math.  Growing weary in my hasty decision to grab the Saxon, I ran around the store looking for a friend from church.  She home schools and I knew she would offer excellent advice.  I asked her about Saxon and she said that she uses Saxon now but when he son was younger she used Horizons.  She said Horizons is more colorful and “exciting” for little ones.  She recommended Saxon for later years.  Perfect!

I did pick up LifePAC Science 1, which was reduced to $60 from $75, plus 20% off for the sale!  I also picked up a pack of blank US maps, Preschool Centers folders, some magnets that were on clearance and a Colorado childrens workbook.  I am still wondering if I should go back and get the Filetastic I saw there…

It was fun to go and look around.  I think there are still great deals to be had online but have a store to actually walk into and see it all is so motivating!  With my purchase I also got a free Insects poster, $5 coupon for laminating (a homeschool MUST) and another coupon for another 20%.  All in all – I am happy!
