Please Pray for Homeschool Curriculum Publishers

by Harriet on February 4, 2010

Please Pray

Please Pray

For the third time this week, I have been in contact with a homeschool publisher who is having a major crisis.

There is something wrong with this picture. Car accidents and major health problems are not normal in this amount.

These families are small publishers who write and publish homeschool friendly curriculum that makes it possible for more families to teach their children at home. Most of them have made incredible time sacrifices to make better curriculum available for you and your family.

I ask you to lift them up in your prayers.  It is all about spiritual warfare.

Enough said.

Blessings,

Harriet Yoder

Making Memories–Will They Remember?

February 14, 2009

Do you  wonder if all those memories you make with your children will ever be remembered?
Today my teenage son gave me a lovely surprise. He recalled a fond memory from his younger years that I had forgotten. It was one of those spontaneously made memories–not the preplanned sort.
Our washing machine bit the dust when he [...]

Where in the World?

January 6, 2009

Here’s a quick link to some free outline maps and map tests.
www.worldatlas.com
They are free for use for any educational application.
If you make it a game, teaching geography map facts can be fun. I have fond memories of doing geography flash cards with my grandmother. Today, my sons are in the other room with a [...]

Take Time to Remember!

December 28, 2008

The following was saved from my old blog “Mother of Many Homeschools” at a now defunct blogsite. It is way before the end of the school year, but I hope this will encourage you now.
It is almost the end of another school year–unless you are like some homeschoolers who “school” year round! Usually at [...]

November 25, 2008

1.  Each child has an assigned day to greet our mail carrier and collect the mail. (We had to implement this feature because our “Mail Lady” was overwhelmed with the mob at the mailbox.)
2.  Everyone has assigned chores. I really like this part!
3. You meet a lot of people who ask you interesting questions such [...]

1.  Not only do you teach your children to walk and talk, you teach them to love the Lord, read the Bible, and care what happens to their fellow human beings.
2.  You are [...]

Why Do We Teach Our Children at Home?

November 13, 2008

1. We love our children. Children are a blessing from the Lord. The fruit of the womb is His reward.
2. It is our job to train our children.
3. Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child. The Bible says to avoid being a companion of fools. Why do we want to send our [...]
