Are you a GCC grad?

Yes, I am.

Grove City is a great school.

Very cool!! I ALMOST went there, but we live in Missouri and at the time I just didn't want to go that far from home.

Does anyone have any experience with homeschooling young preschool age kids? I found something called "hands on homeschooling" online, wondering if anyone has used it? Thanks.

Hi pesto, I have a preschooler also, and just let her play with brother's educational toys. Right now, all she needs is play. Other than that, I have no advice to give.

In other news...
I did just get an email with a link to a Thanksgiving unit from "Hands On Teaching Tips." If anyone has heard of Homeschool in the Woods, this is from the same family.

Hi, Pesto. I just pretty much played with my little ones, but that was back in the days of the dinosaurs. There is a free reading program online that my grandson loves,
