In the Hands of a Child has awesome lap books that my kids have always had a lot of fun with them. Don't know what lap books are? You're in for a treat! Imagine something that integrates all of the 3 R's and more on a given subject. What would you say to a unit that incorporates reading, writing, math, logic, crafts, foriegn language, and health(and more) AND makes it a lot of fun in the process? And then when you're done, if you want to revisit that unit in the future it's all in one place? The kids have a lot ot fun looking at their past work and seeing now only what they've learned but how they've progressed! By any name, lap books are a lot of fun.
