Evaluation comments:
“This is very useful and informative. I appreciate how it focuses on one central theme and dedicates the book to different activities and crafts designed around it. Our edition covers everything from the history about the Olympics to how to set up your very own Olympic games with a mascot and hand made medals. Very creative and gets the whole family involved – even our next door neighbors who also homeschool.”
“I liked the centralized theme the most. In comparison with other subscriptions like this one, others tend to be a bit scattered and have one of everything. With this, I am able to break it up into portions and keep it as a reference as well as a craft. I can then build it up to an activity (our own Olympic games) to complete the ‘lesson’ of the book. A theme is very important to keep the learning going and keep the repetition up.”
“I would buy it as a gift. It is always fun for kids to get things in the mail, and a bonus when it can be a learning tool. An added bonus when it can last longer than a week.”
“Great addition to a homeschool social studies curriculum. Or just for something fun for down time and free time.”
“This is a wonderful supplement to virtual history classes.”
“My husband, who is a huge sports fan and was a sports writer for many years, looked through the magazine and learned something new!”
“The magazine is well written, easy to read and filled with amazing information. There are activities at the end to motivate the reader.”
“I like how easy it was to read, the magazine is well made with thick pages, not like a magazine you get on the newsstand. I learned a lot about the history of the Olympics.”
