After telling our boy that we’ve already ordered his homeschool books, he has been asking us ” Where are my homeschool books? ” , almost everyday. We had to explain to him that it’ll take time for them to arrive since they’ve been shipped to Malaysia. I guess my li’l boy is just excited for homeschool. I hope that his excitement will continue even as he starts his homeschool.

Our daughter has been studying and introduction to world culture for her homeschool curriculum this year. It sounds kinda heavy but their materials are not actually heavy. In fact, they have been fun! Her books have some activities to let the her learn more about different cultures. I then realize that she’s learning a whole lot about culture and stuff as she’s in different country.

Earlier, we were so convinced to send our daughter to a local Thai school ( half day) as a supplement for her homeschool, but it seems we’re having second thoughts now.

For her a thumb drive is a ‘grown up’ gadget and she’s having one! Well, what can a 7 year old girl use this thumb drive for? Well, it’s mainly for transferring her favorite cartoons from the computer to this thumb drive and then she can watch them in TV. LOL! That’s...

I have found something that might be valuable to you. It’s an online bookstore called Book Depository that offers free shipping worldwide. I’ve actually heard about this site from one of the homeschool forums I’m a part of. Many of them find the books reasonable here and the fact that it practically has zero shipping fee. I’m checking on this site now and comparing the prices with our homeschool program. If I find the books here cheaper, then I might order my son’s books from here. I’m also planning to buy a few books for me. Yipee!
