More Reviews of Homeschool projects

Posted in Homeschooling

    How would you like for your children to learn about 4 historical people?  What if those same people overcame great odds and changed their world?  What if these same people did exactly what God told them to do in the face of many challenges that made what they were doing seem impossible?

 

    I was asked to review a project pack from In the Hands of a Child.  We have used many of their project packs (Bees, Butterflies, Pilgrims, Pigs, ect...) in the past and the kids really enjoy this fun way of adding a hands-on dimension to the topics we are studying.  And last month I reviewed Benjamin Franklin Project Pack

 

   Well, In the Hands of a Child asked again for me to review their project packs for both Disneyland and Christian Missionaries to Know.  The Christian Missionaries to Know is a great Multi-level hands on Lapbook pack with 29 activities to make Gladys Aylward, David Livingston, Amy Carmichael and George Muller household names.  Not only are there activities to make a wonderful Lapbook but also so much information, links and book suggestions.  They even give ideas for the kids to start mission projects right in their own neighborhood or town.

 

   There are 112 pages plus FULL COLOR pages showing you how they suggest putting it all together, GREAT help.  They cover things like vocabulary, what is a missionary, what skills or jobs a missionary might perform, and much, much more!

 

    The Christian Missionaries to Know project pack is designed to be a stand-alone unit on these great people of God.  You would just add some library books to give additional information or viewpoints if you want to.  It is also a great supplement to any curriculum you may be using to Mission work

 

     I love that all the mini-books are in the pack, ready to be printed and cut out. It is very easy to print however many copies you need for your family (if you have the ebook version or make copies if you have the paper version). I prefer the ebook style. We like to choose various colors to print the mini-books out on to make the final product colorful and attractive.

 

     On the Disneyland project pack we have a family history with Disneyland.  My mother was there on opening day in California.  And the love for Disney parks, movies, characters, ect… has been a family tradition.  So I jumped at the chance to review Disney project pack.

 

     The Disneyland project pack is designed for elementary to middle school aged children, although I learned many things I didn’t know.  It has 22 activities in its 69 pages plus FULL COLOR pages showing you how they suggest to put it all together, again GREAT help.  They cover things like vocabulary, timelines, geography, and much, much more!

 

      If you love Disneyland or its characters like we do this project pack is for you.  I love that all the mini-books are in the pack, ready to be printed and cut out. It is very easy to print however many copies you need for your family (if you have the ebook version or make copies if you have the paper version). I prefer the ebook style. We like to choose various colors to print the mini-books out on to make the final product colorful and attractive.

 

      My blog is designed for homeschooling families to teach their children with the Bible and Jesus as the center, the main text.  I will give you free ideas on how to do this as well as tell you of products that I have found to help me keep my focus on God.  Sign-up today to receive updates on what else I find.
