A website that I visit everyday:  my own of course!  Also myfamily.com - to check up on family news on both my family and my dh's family websites.

First place that I look for a book to buy:  that depends on the type of book it is.  I like www.rainbowresource.com, www.amazon.com, and www.sonlight.com most.

Favorite homeschool support area:  homeschoolblogger friends of course!

Homeschool site full of information that I use regularly:  I can't say that I do this one much anymore.  I think now I rely more on hardcopy books that I have at home and blogger friends, to be honest.

Site that I buy NEW curriculum from:  This year it was www.sonlight.com and www.homeschoolinthewoods.com so far. 

Site that I buy USED curriculum from:  Sonlight users have a forum where they can buy and sell used curriculum from, but you have to be a member and pay to use the selling portion.  I used it before it became cost prohibitive.  It was at www.sonlight-forums.com.  I don't usually find what I am looking for at other used boards, and end up spending a lot of time there fruitlessly.

A charity website that you support:  www.mcc.org

A blog to read that is always full of humor:  www.homeschoolingmomof5boys.blogspot.com or www.homeschoolblogger.com/eyecorn

A blog to read that is always full of useful information:  www.higherupandfurtherin.blogspot.com

A blog to visit because it is eye appealing and easy to read:  www.homesteadblogger.com/simplefolk

A blog I read because it inspires me to be a better homeschooling mom:  All of my homeschoolblogger friends would fit into this category.  You can find their links under my friends list.  Also Gloria at www.homesteadblogger.com/ourfamilyjourney and any of my blogger friends on my links column.

I don't let my kids do much on the internet, but there is one site that I have let them use, and that is www.starfall.com, which is a good reading site for new and learning readers.

Other sites that I love are the free book sites like www.mainlesson.com and www.childrensbooksonline.org.  I like to peruse www.amblesideonline.org for fun too, although I haven't felt it really fit us for curricula. 

I hope that some link helps someone.  I left out some other categories that didn't really fit me too.

I haven't seen Higher Up and Further In before. It looks like a great site that I am going to have to add to my already long list.

Hi Carol. That's a great list. I forgot all about starfall, my kiddos like that one, too. As always, I enjoyed my visit this week. Julie.

Loved reading these links. It's funny, because we wouldn't ask each other for these links, but it gives us an inside view of things we like to know!

We used the Starfall with our son @ 5yrs old. He loved that site so much. Great list of treasures.
