Recently, Kara and I were talking about getting ready for fall. We’ve been receiving listener questions about back to school resources, planning, and organizational tips and strategies.
Kara told me that she had once seen an internet meme that said something along the lines of, “Everyone is back to school shopping and I just want to buy another watermelon.”
And I thought to myself, “YES.”
Because I’m not quite ready for school to start. I want more watermelon, and pool days, and lazy summer afternoons spent reading stacks of books.
The thing is, whether we are ready or not, it’s almost here.
September is just around the corner and many of us will be scrambling to find the perfect resources for our unique little learners.
One resource that I’ve always been curious about is called Reading Eggs. I bet you’ve heard of it, too. I’ve read fantastic reviews about the program from homeschool friends and fellow bloggers.
Recently, our family had a chance to check out the program. If you’ve been curious, too, you’ll want to keep reading because Reading Eggs has a special offer for My Little Poppies readers!

*Disclosure: I received access to Reading Eggs at no cost and was compensated for my time to write a review. I was not required to write a positive review. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. I only choose to review products and resources that I would use with my own family and those that I believe other families will enjoy.
I have heard many friends and colleagues gush about Reading Eggs lately and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to check it out. Keep reading to find out about a special back-to-school offer from Reading Eggs!

What did this homeschool mama think about Reading Eggs?
There are many things I enjoyed about this program, including:
- I love that Reading Eggs is a personalized, non-intimidating, fun way to boost early literacy skills in children.
- The program is individualized to your child’s strengths and weaknesses.
- Reading Eggs uses gamification so children are playing and learning.
- The program utilizes an incentive-based model so children can earn “gold eggs” based on performance and these eggs can be used to further personalize the child’s avatar.
- I appreciate that Reading Eggs offers a free trial so that families can determine whether or not the program is a match for their unique family.
As we explored the Reading Eggs program, I found myself wishing I had stumbled upon it a few years ago, when my children were learning to read. My children enjoyed Reading Eggs, but they are definitely beyond the program right now. They would have loved it back then, though!!
If your children are already reading independently and with good comprehension, this may not be the program for you. If you are on the fence, read on because there is a speical offer from Reading Eggs!
