I've only had mine 1 1/2 years but love it. The only time I had a problem was when the weight got knocked off but I snapped it back on and haven't had a problem since.

Oh my goodness! Glad your son knew what to do.

My oldest just turned 14 and he still goes out with us.

These sound wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

We're committed to doing what we think is best for our children. When we came back to the States we moved to a wonderful area with superior public schools, so we enrolled our boys. They both had excellent first years but DS9 has expressed an interest in coming back home so we are evaluating that right now.

No vacation for us. We had Hawaii scheduled for this month but decided to cancel to save money.
My boys went to PS this past year and I missed them so much. I'm not going to miss going on vacation because I'll be enjoying all the time I get to spend with them. :grouphug: (As a side, DS9 might be coming back home next year.)

I don't enjoy camping so nope, not a vacation for me.

It depends on if it's my family or his. :lol:

Yes, they are chewable, but not like I expected. I bought them today and my husband did a test chew for me. He said the gel caps "pop" when you bite them, but you then have to chew on the plastic-like gel cap. He said it didn't taste bad, but chewing on the gel cap (like a vitamin-E capsule) was disturbing.
Thanks.

Nordic Naturals Omega 3 6 9 Jr.'s are the same as the ProEFA, they just changed the name. You can order them online, or maybe find them at your local health food store like I do.
Good luck :001_smile:
Are these chewable?
Thanks,
Debbie

We have an '09 Honda Odyssey and an '09 Honda Accord. We love them both!

We just started Fractions yesterday and we're already on chapter 6. We love it! We are using it as a supplement with MM, but at the rate we're going he's going to get to the new concepts in LoF before they are taught in MM. I guess that's already happened, though, since he didn't know radius and diameter before yesterday. He's very mathy so I'm not worried.
I'm using it in a similar fashion to Paula. DS9 is an excellent reader but since he wouldn't wait to start the book and I wanted to make sure he was understanding, we're reading it together. Also, I was very interested in seeing what all the excitement was about. :) We cuddle on the sofa and I do most of the reading. He does the math and anything he can do verbally, he does (fine motor issues).
I'm enjoying it so much I plan on purchasing them all. But I can see they wouldn't be for everyone, and in fact, DS13 isn't interested at all. He sat with us when we did the 1st chapter but he'd much rather have a textbook.

We do it in black and white, also. I can see where having it in color would be nice but DS9 doesn't mind b&w.

I chose to download, as well. I bought the Light Blue series and it did come zipped. I got an error when I tried to download so I left it for DH and he downloaded it for me without a problem. I'm not the most computer savvy. :)

We just started CD pre-algebra. The DVD instruction is excellent. It was so engaging, my mathy DS9 grabbed a white board (so he could work problems) and watched the whole lesson on square roots with his brother.

I think we saw it when our boys were maybe 7 and 11. We all loved it!

I don't work outside the home but thought I would post anyway. :)
DS13: IEW & Foerster Algebra
DS9: IEW, Math Mammoth, LoF and the summer packet from PS
Both boys will be reading, doing swim lessons and lots of golf (lessons, leagues & tournaments).

Mine learned by putting the pill on his tongue and then drinking from a straw.
Hope that one does the trick.

Tina, how difficult is it to use two different levels? I have a just turned 7 year old and an 11 year old and feel that they should really probably use different levels but I wasn't sure I would actually do it if doing them separate would be too time consuming. I have a hard time fitting everything in and like to combine them when possible.
Thanks,

My biggest challenge is finding a balance between at home studies and outside activities and field trips. We don't have a car and use public transport to get around, so when we go anywhere it's atleast a half day affair. We probably won't be here for more than an year from now so I would hate to stop going to places but I also have so many "traditional" school things I want to get done. I'm having a hard time finding the right balance so this is definitely my biggest challenge.

I've been slacking a lot lately but I've really liked working out with kettlebells and the Art of Strength videos. I also really like the Beachbody workouts -- P90X, Slim Series and Turbo Jam and barre type workouts such as The Barre Method and The Lotte Berk Method.

I just added copywork to our schedule two or three weeks ago. I've been having my 1st grader do a little everyday.
