The planning is done, the workbooks are printed, and we have happily finished our first week of school.
Since much of our homeschooling is done with free printable resources, a good computer and printer is a must-have for back to school!
Walmart has a line of HP products with some pretty cool features to help you or your kiddos embrace technology along with education.

HP Pavilion dv6-7029wm Entertainment PC
Homeschool Mom might not come to mind when you read quad speakers and subwoofer, but have you ever tried to gather 5 kids closely around the average laptop because no one can hear the really cool video that you’ve carefully chosen to go with your science lesson? Gimme the speakers!
The Pavilion dv6-7029wm is sure to be the best entertainment PC on campus. With a sleek, tapered metal design, it’s easy to pick up. With cool features like Beats Audio amplified by quad speakers and a subwoofer, it’s tough to put down.

HP Deskjet 3052a e-All-in-One printer
I really LOVE this idea of being able to print something from anywhere using a smartphone or tablet. I assumed this printer came with a high price tag and I was shocked when I checked the Walmart website. Y’all…it is priced from only $69-$148!!
With an HP e-Print wireless enabled printer you can now print from your smartphone or tablet from virtually anywhere! Your children can send photos and assignments from the classroom right to your HP ePrint printer at home by simply sending an email. This printer is also great for teens going away to college! You can share photos and recipes with them in their dorm room. Stay in touch with your students with HP ePrint.

It is such distraction to have to run to Walmart in the middle of a big project because your printer ran out of ink. These big boys should keep your printer humming until the job is done.
Back-to-school means lots of printing! These cartridges fit in your printer like HP’s regular cartridges, but they hold more ink! The best part is they are now available at Walmart and Walmart.com/HPink so you can stock up on ink when you buy groceries. You can save up to 40% on printing with HP’s XL ink cartridges*. That’s a great value any mom can appreciate!
*Compared with single, standard HP ink cartridges. Based on average retail pricing, actual prices may vary.
One of my wonderful readers is going to win a $25 Walmart gift card to stock up on back to school essentials!!
Winner to be announced soon!!

We really need a laptop for in the dining room, right now the computer is in our bedroom and it’s such a nuisance to pack everything up, go to my room, and do whatever for school. Mostly listen (and dance), to our Seeds Worship songs but hey. I had been given a laptop but it got dropped and went “white screen” so now we’re improvising. It works, but I’ve been eyeing that exact HP laptop!

I would really like the laptop. I am trying to incorporate more computer time for the kids this school year for typing and spanish and preschool games. Also, I have been using our printer like crazy printing things to get started this year, in stead of purchasing them(trying to save money). Thanks for the great giveaway!

The 6600 e all in one is the best! For such an outstanding price it does everything I need and more! I love that fact that that you can load it with 250 papers because we are running out of space! It would be one less thing that I have to find room for, I would feel a lot more organized, which is exactly what I need in order for my school to run smoothly. Since I also do so 90% of my work from home I love having the ability to print emails that I need in a hard copy from anywhere, and also receive faxes when needed. MOST importantly, I need a printer that allows me to print!! LOL I haven’t had the best of luck with the last two!!
I am excited about these since I will be in the market very soon!!
