How about books by David Macaulay?

All my boys have used or use MM. They average about 4 pages an hour. We use the light blue series.

Not podcasts, but The Great Courses have lots of great audios on various subjects. I also enjoy anything by Andrew Pudewa.

:drool5: Amazing!! Do post some updated pics when you get the time :)

Cool! Have you got any pictures to share?

Welcome!! We do yoga inside, we are following Ekhart Yoga. I also get my boys to do push ups, and the plank inside every day. When they were yonger I got them to do a lot of their school work sitting on exercise balls, it helped keep them physically busy while I was trying to 'tap' into their minds :)

D'Aulaire's Book of Greek Myths is our favourite for this age.

A few of mine aren't on labels they are stickers. Nefertiti, Tutankhamun, and a few other ones are stickers that came with a book. If they are rectangular on my book they are most likely clip art on labels.

Oh yes Homeschool Mon in Az these are great. We have the The Classical Education Timeline set, and it is fantastic quality and great for reference. They look lovely hung up too :) I wonder what their blank timeline template looks like?

You could have a look at what we are using here for the Middle Ages.

We use and love HISTORY Through the Ages “Record of Time. You can have a look at ours here.

We used IKEA Mammut table and chairs, younger still uses his. Then we got adjustable-leg tables from IKEA, Galant, and adjustable office chairs so they 'grow' with the kids. I nearly bought these desks when we started homeschooling, but I decided they wern't worth the $$ for us.

We only use it for art, my youngest was about 6. I helped him a lot, but he loved it and still does at 8. Others were 8 and 9 when they started, they love it too.

Cool, that's me! Glad you like it cowboyjunki!

Just an update on finding someone to Skype with. I have been using italki for French for the last 5 weeks. You can find language exchange people, speak your native language for half the time and theirs for the other half. This is for free. Or you can purchase time with some one to speak in your chosen language. I tried 5 different people for French, and loved 2 of them. I have settled on a lady that I adore, and I pay her $10 for one hour of conversational French, she has also sent me some homework. I hate homework!! My boys are not ready for 1 hour of French conversation, but when they are I will use italki :)

Gordon Korman who wrote The 39 Clues? Can you name a couple of title for me please?

Haha 3! Hope you got some good ideas too :)

Mu oldest son loves this series, it's in his top 10 series. He has re-read them multiple times.

Anything by Andy Griffiths The Creature from My Closet series Fart Power
