I love The Old Schoolhouse magazine. I always find it packed full of insightful articles and helpful tips. Today I found out they are selling a year subscription for $7.95 as a Labor Day promotion. I was thrilled and immediately had the idea that this would be a wonderful and affordable way to encourage beginning homeschoolers.
I called our support group president to sell my idea. I want to pair up those who are willing and have been homeschooling for a while with those who are brand new to this homeschooling adventure. We will each purchase a gift subscription to The Old Schoolhouse magazine for them. I think it will be a great way to welcome them to our support group and provide them with additional encouragement and support all year long.
If you have a support group, why not take advantage of this great low price and implement a similar program? If your support group has a large budget, maybe they could purchase the subscriptions for your new homeschoolers themselves. Or, you could do it on your own - If you know of a new homeschooler, send them a gift subscription. I know they will be blessed!

We are a homeschooling family raising 4 boys in Virginia. This blog is mostly about anything relevant to raising boys or homeschooling in general - but every once in a while I can't help but add some nonsense from our daily life.
