Homeschool Resources for a GREAT Price!

As some of you already know, our family homeschools our children. We put a lot of time and energy into our homeschooling, both with experiential learning and more traditional book-learning (as a matter of fact, we LOVE books). It can get quite expensive, with four children on different levels, so we always look for ways to get the best educational resources we can.  We especially like those that can be used on multiple levels, or can be used for multiple children over the years. 

This means I am usually on the lookout for educational deals, and one site I use is Educents. Here are a few of their great $20 and under deals, that are perfect for homeschooling or for supplementing your kids' school curriculum!




Here's a list of the best affordable homeschool resources - all available for $20 or less on Educents.
