I’m rerunning this old post full of gift ideas for homeschoolers—or anyone, really! Most of the posts linked below are a few years old and could be added to, of course. For now, a big round-up of posts from the past.
ā¢ The Grandpa Gifts (personalized alphabet books & placemats)
ā¢ Books we love
ā¢ More books we love
ā¢ Still more, some real gems in this one
ā¢ More, some out of print but track-downable
ā¢ A bunch of nature & gardening books I like
Interjection: The above is a series of posts I wrote several years ago. There are, needless to say, many more books I could add to the list of Books We Love. Such as:
ā¢ the new Betsy-Tacy reissues
ā¢ Shark vs. Train
ā¢ Miss Suzy
ā¢ everything on my Truly, Maudly, Deeply list
ā¢ books about our Favorite Fictional Families
I’ve compiled all of them in my giant master list of book recommendations
Now back to the original post—
ā¢ Signing Time DVDs
ā¢ More about Signing Time
ā¢ Yet more about Signing Time
ā¢ Settlers of Catan, Wedgits
ā¢ Books on drawing
ā¢ Art prints
ā¢ Family memberships to zoos, museums, etc.
ā¢ MUSE magazine, CLICK, ODYSSEY, SPIDER, ASK, MY BIG BACKYARD—all these have been much-appreciated gifts to my kids by Scott’s parents
ā¢ My most widely linked post: Things to buy instead of curriculum
Each of the above links is a longer post on the subject.
A special opportunity for Bonny Glen readers:

So here’s how it works:

Shipping: I will ship using USPS Flat Rate boxes. Your shipping rate depends on what size box your books will fit into. Domestic rates are about $5 (small box), $11 (medium box), and $14.50 (large box). International rates are considerably higher, of course—see the USPS link above. The number of books that will fit into each box depends on whether you want hardcover or paperback or a combination. I’ll use the smallest size possible.
I’ll make a P.O. run on Monday, December 6 and another on Friday, December 10. That ought to get books to you by Christmas. (If time is not a factor, let me know and we can talk about media mail shipping rates instead.)
Payment: I accept Paypal (checking account payments only, not credit card). If that won’t work for you, we can talk.
Don’t Paypal me anything without talking to me via email first!
These are original, unabridged editions with illustrations by Renee Graef (Martha) or Dan Andreason (Charlotte).
First come, first served! Be sure to email me—I’m not taking orders in the comments. (Not that you can’t comment. Just don’t leave an order in the comments.)
