When you play alongside your children, you create memories and fuel learning in a low-key, non-judgmental way. There are no red marks, no corrections- only fun! I thought it would be fun to share a few history and geography gifts so that you can incorporate stealth learning into your homeschool routine.

This year, our family has fallen in love with Around the World Stories. I cannot recommend these stories highly enough. While eating lunch, or snuggled on the couch, we have traveled the globe and learned so much in the process! I’ve also included three of our favorite DVD collections: Kids’ Animated History with Pipo, Liberty’s Kids, and Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego. I also have to mention History Unboxed, a monthly hands-on history subscription that we have enjoyed for the past two years. Finally, we have recently discovered Pin It! Maps and I can already tell they are going to be a favorite around here!
Add more joy to your homeschool routine…

I was hoping this would help me decide on an atlas, but you have both the Nat.Geo. AND the Maps books on here! I still don’t know what to do! Five kids, oldest is 8 (but a fifth grader), we’re studying world geography this year. I think my parents will probably get whichever one I ask for Christmas. Do you have a single recommendation for the best all-purpose world atlas? Thanks!
Ooooh, they are both SO good. I will say that my kids prefer Maps. Something about those fantastic illustrations- they can’t resist diving in and learning oodles!
