Old Schoolhouse Magazine Crew Review – Christian Keyboarding

February 1, 2010 Reviews

Watching my 11-year-old (as of today!) son hunt and peck for letters on the keyboard is nearly painful.  I know that if I keep doing it for him, he'll never learn but I can hardly help myself.  We really need a keyboarding course! We got Mavis and it would probably be fine if we did [...]

Old Schoolhouse Magazine Crew Review – All About Spelling

December 15, 2009 Reviews

We are having a great time with this curriculum! It was love at first sight when this neatly packed boxed showed up in my mailbox with its crisp new teacher’s manual and fresh never-been-mauled-by-the-baby flash cards! “Mommy, why are you drooling on that box?” “Nevermind.” While I gather my thoughts again, go ahead and read [...]
