Thanks for this review! We're about to start this, having used up to volume 2 of Mystery of History for my 3rd grader. I feel the reading levels of MOH advance very quickly. Do you find Masterbooks to be a better level for younger kids?

If you are using with multiple children is there an option to purchase multiple printed books? A family discount? Or you have to use the digital version? I really like the open-and-go format but i dont know if i can get my 12yr old to do what looks like Kinder work. And hopefully it doesn't seem like "more school" in another language..."I already did math mom" i can hear them saying. It just really seems to focus on younger kids and i need something for my 12 yr old who would be a beginner. And I wonder how long this would take to make progress...i took spanish in middleschool-high school over a few years. Is this really a second language program and not just learning school subjects in another language?

I’ve researched these for a while for my grandkids. The biggest issue for most of us is the expense All brands are a significant obligation

These look fun

These are awesome items! ❤

Yes to refillable printers!! One of the best homeschool investments I've made so far!

These sound awesome! Hoping to get lots of read Alouds in, in 2025!! ❤

I’ve bought more books so I know we have good books before we travel school in February!!! My teenagers love comic books!!! My teenage girl got her older brothers into them but not her twin brother!!! I buy the 1st book of a series and if my kids like it during the 1st book I buy the rest of the series!!! The dragon books sounds awesome as well!!! We use more than one bible curriculum at a time so we can switch them up for some reason!!!

Can you show a sample of your block schedule?

Wow!! This is an in-depth flip through. I love how you slowly took us through and the shower idea. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

This popped up in my feed randomly, probably because I’ve been googling homeschool resources lately… my experience has been EXACTLY like yours. It’s heart breaking watching my kid who went into kindergarten reading and doing advanced math come home and tell me he hates school, he learns nothing, and he doesn’t like the other kids. I feel like I’m on the edge of making the same decisions.

Is the teacher guide necessary?

I’m looking at using this for my seventh grader next year instead of world’s story from MB. How are you enjoying it?

I’ve been looking into this curriculum when I saw it on their kits!!! These books look awesome!!! My now 14 year old thrives in anatomy in 2nd grade!!!

Hey sweet mama...this looks wonderful. It has a great variety of different activities. Thank you for sharing this option for us homeschool mamas. 🙏☺️

Thank you so much for this video! I will definitely be taking a look at your laminator, as I actually have the scotch brand. I like it and there's nothing wrong with it but as my child is getting in higher levels I find that it is taking forever to laminate what I need to and I almost have to prepare the night before to laminate things. At this point in life I have two toddlers one who wants to do school so I'm beginning to do school with him.

Thanks for sharing & hosting! The laminator and cutter together is genius!!

I’m loving the 8 great smarts and loving seeing my kids learn in a different way!!! I think the books are life altering as we starred from school from home about 8 years ago!!! We bought our laminator from target and I’m glad I didn’t buy the scotch after wat u said!!! We don’t use our whiteboards apart from letter tiles at the moment!!! We love DK books!!! I think our case binders are case it!!! We use them for travel schooling!!!

I love the laminator and cutter 2-in-1!

We have so many similar of our favorite things :)

Homeschool Bravely is my favorite homeschooling mom book. Love all the additional things that laminator has!

Thank you so much for this video. I needed to see this.

I personally love the story telling, conversational Charlotte Mason style …I have used BJU Press and Abeka for American history and that was dry, my son did not like either. But this time with MBs history ..he is reading through it very quickly, he enjoys it, we enjoy the variety of activities in the TG and most importantly the timeline is his favorite part. We love it and will be doing 2 and 3 in the same year. It’s light enough so that you can choose where to do a deep dive yet stand-alone it’s sufficient. He is retaining a lot and I’m very impressed. He is more analytical, strong in science and math so this course made history very interesting and not boring. I’m not sure if we will stick with the world history bc I might choose Mystery of History bc there seems to be more covered in that one as opposed to MB. As a middle schooler I feel he will be ready for a more in depth look at world History so that he may feel prepared for the HS courses.

Thank you this is a great review.

Wow thank you so much for the flip through

Ok! Thinking of getting this for Black Friday. Is this still a good fit? How's it going?

Never feel bad when you cant post videos as often as you would hope. You and your family should always come first ❤❤❤

This was fun and I loved all of your book suggestions! Will definitely be adding them to my list! I have been prioritizing read-alouds with my children this year, and it's so good! Even though it can be hard to do with a 1 and 3 yr old, it's still one of the best parts of our homeschool/bedtime. Reading the book The Read Aloud Family, really inspired me. For bedtime with the kids we have been reading the Mercy Watson series, and we have all loved it!!! We're still working on it. For myself I've been reading You're Teenager Is Not Crazy ( which I actually heard of from you), and also No Longer Little by Hal and Melanie Young. They're both really good so far! 😊❤

I'm thinking I've seen a simplified version of a lot of the classics, including Treasure Island 🤔

We love art and my kids do art independently often and at the moment my teenage daughter is doing art with her friends dad and 2 friends!!! This looks awesome!!! We keep art supplies at home!!!

We have the high school version of this to do next semester :)

Looks so cute

It’s not required so I’ve given it as an option for my kids!!! I love that they have extra information for the teacher!!! This looks awesome!!!

I just want to say I love your sweater. I also want to tell you that laundry for a large family is a lot. I know that you say y'all do laundry for everyone once a week, one thing I have also found that works really well as to do 1:00 to 2 loads per day and that's it. I get it done early in the morning so it can be done before we start our school day. Ask for dishes I'm not sure if you have a dishwasher or not. My dishwasher is an amazing tool for me to use to help with dishes. I am able to load it each day and even if it is not full I will run it at night. It actually takes less water to run a dishwasher than to wash them and rinse them by hand. If you do not have a dishwasher then maybe you can use that as a tool for your oldest kids to learn how to get them properly to help. Just some suggestions to try to help them. I know everyone situation is different and what works for one may not work for another. Love your videos!

This was a great video! Thank you! 😊 -Ruby

I am reading Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot.I have Love Without Borders but I haven’t managed to read it yet. I may need to add that to the top of my to be read list. Our read aloud right now is The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street and we are loving it! I am hoping to read Heartwood Hotel afterwards. I’ve wanted to go through that series with my kiddos and haven’t managed it yet 🤪 We are also Listening to Ember Rises (from the Green Ember series) on audiobook during car rides. I can’t recommend the Green Ember Series enough! We absolutely love it! Though if your kids are sensitive to things like battles and loss it may not be the book for you. My kids are 6 & 7 and they are always asking to listen. Especially my 6 year old.

The Swiss Family Robinson is one of my favorite childhood books! I read it so many times. It’s one I’m looking forward to sharing with my kids. The book club sounds like so much fun! I’m glad it’s been going so well 😊

Been busy here too. I want to read angelas book. I watched hilbilly elegy, not read the booksbut it was inspiring, even as a Canadian. Definitely any bridge or santa craft would work for family under the bridge. It takes place in france so anything french too.

What kind of lunch to you plan for your kids? Any recipes you can share, I can’t find it in your description

I need to go through my kids clothes! They have soooo much that they don’t wear, 😅 it’s just not needed! For my dishes, I bought myself a portable dishwasher since there’s no space for it. It’s been a life saver and my son’s chores is to empty the dishwasher once. So helpful. It’s hard for sure tho!

Nothing wrong with paper plates and a large laundry pile if you have enough clothes as I find we get to the piles at a later time!!! On Monday we often make bread so I sometimes do it at a different day!!! We make it a homeschool lesson!!! We don’t eat leftovers and we never get them anyway with 4 teenagers and my husband who all eat a lot!!! We eat out during our travels or order room service and in Tokyo my teens loved the room service!!! My 13 year old cooks but I was more scared we. She was 11!!! We let her tho especially as she had done a cooking class previously!!! I’ve just bought a lot of books and my kids are loving them!!! Some are already in my older kids rooms!!! Our house has a lot of legos and I love it!!!

Why doesn't America memorize the names of 195 countries and their capitals like the rest of the world? -193 countries are full members of the UN -Two other countries, the Vatican and Palestine, have the status of non-member observer states Many American Even don't know the name of the continent.

I need to learn to make a double batch of meals to do more leftovers nights. We don’t mind leftovers, but I don’t usually make enough for us all to have the same meal again. We save up leftovers for a couple nights though and then each pick which one we want. 😊

I love, love your shirt!

I’m not a minimalist but I need to be 😂 I’m not great at housekeeping. Good thinking on meal prepping! I need to do that more

My kids help clean the bathrooms🤣 Definitely a skill they will need for the future!

Yes! Limiting clothing is such a great tip!

Thank you for sharing and hosting! We usually eat most of our leftovers too. Usually for lunch, but sometimes for another evening too. I HATE throwing food away!

I don’t know if this is helpful, but I was having dizziness and many other symptoms in 2020, and still struggle on the daily. I was diagnosed with chronic migraine
