Curriculum Reviews

Picking out the "right" curriculum is a battle many homeschool moms face.  We find something wonderful, and then like a toddler, we see another shiny, new thing that looks wonderful, too!   It is our hope that these reviews will help you with your 'pros' and 'cons' columns.  (Unlinked lines are 'coming soon.')  Good luck!

You'll also find video reviews on our YouTube channel.
Fiction & Non-fiction book reviews are found on Mom's Shelf.
