Homeschooling ABCs from Knowledge Quest

Posted in Product Reviews for Homeschooling


I knew when I first heard about Homeschooling ABCs from Knowledge Quest that it would be a great program.  Knowledge Quest (KQ) specializes in history and geography curricula; they’re a company that would rather offer quality than quantity.  We own and use a few KQ products, and I feel I’ve gotten to “know” them through Terri’s blog; I’ve also heard KQ mentioned here and there in the homeschool arena, so I just knew Homeschooling ABCs would be an excellent program.


I had a friend beginning to homeschool this year who I thought could benefit from Homeschooling ABCs, but I hadn’t personally seen the program to explain it to her; I couldn’t recommend something from only my “gut instinct” or intuition, could I?  So, I was quite excited when I received Homeschooling ABCs to review for The Old Schoolhouse Homeschool Crew.  And I was right: it’s a great product for new homeschoolers; my friend would really have benefited.  I think anyone, new or "seasoned," could glean much from this program, especially those who are struggling with direction or organization for their homeschool and for those who (like me a few years ago) are transitioning from “traditional” or boxed curriculum to eclectic homeschooling.


Todd and Terri Johnson really want to get us on the right path.  They encourage us to make sure the Bible is the foundation of what we’re doing, along with simply enjoying our children.  They don’t tell us we have to do it their way but guide and prepare us.  They don’t overwhelm us with information, but equip us by sharing information in a well-organized manner and getting us in touch with other quality Christian Homeschool companies.  To check out a sample lesson plus a 5-day mini class click HERE.


By the way, the name “Homeschooling ABCs” is letting us know there is a lesson for each letter of the alphabet; these 26 classes (1 per week) are only $10/month.  We’re also receiving over $200 worth of free resources from great homeschooling companies like: Values-Driven Family, Cindy Rushton, Homeschoolingbible.com, The Old Schoolhouse Planner, and TEACH magazine!  KQ isn’t saying they’re the know-all and end-all!  They want to equip us to succeed, and I feel this program does just that.  


Thanks, Todd and Terri!

I haven't been by in awhile. I like the photo you used for your header. Very pretty picture. Where is the barn? Did you take it yourself, or did you find it some where else?

How has everything been at the Hull house? Everything has been fine here. We had a lovely Thanksgiving. How about yours? What did you make? I posted a list of the stuff we made on my homestead blog.

Love and blessings,
Rachel
