Homeschool Survival
With so many little guys in my house during the homeschooling day busy boxes are a must for me! I love how easy they are for little hands to use and the activities are endless. We use them to create pictures and other art projects. They are great for beginner writers and readers. Print off letters for them to “trace” with dots, have them match dots to numbers, or play find the letter by printing off a sheet of mixed up letters and only dotting certain ones. ~ Emmalee Hoggatt, The Hoggatt Homeschool
I absolutely love this laminator. It’s very reasonably priced. We love to laminate play-dough mats and homemade games. Its a great access to our homeschool. ~ Jill Craft, Blessed Beyond a Doubt
My first choice of favorite homeschool product is Handbook of Nature Study by Anna Comstock. It is really all I need for early elementary level science, and I continue to use it all the way through high school. It is a timeless nature study guide, science text, collection of unit studies, and field guide all in one. By far my best homeschooling investment. ~ Anne Campbell, Learning Table
I DO SO love a good globe and this one is very affordable! I’ve used everything from wall maps, to blow up globes in our family homeschool. This year we will be enjoying the real deal as we regularly study exciting people, places, and things from around the world! ~ Kelli Becton, Adventures in Child Rearing
Any time I need encouragement, as a homeschool mom, this is the book I pull out. There are so many practical tips and tricks throughout the book that give me the perfect pep talk that I need. It has everything from home organization ideas to curriculum ideas. Really, everything a homeschooling mom would need! — Sarah Robinson, Sidetracked Sarah & Owner of Homeschool Survival.
We love learning grammar with the books in the Words Are Categorical series. These charming books teach students grades 2-4 with fun titles such as A Mink, a Fink, a Skating Rink (nouns) and Hairy, Scary, Ordinary (adjectives). There are also books for verbs, adverbs, pronouns, compound words, conjunctions, prepositions, synonyms, and more! ~ Marcy Crabtree, Ben and Me
Smead Envelope with String-Tie Closure, Side Loading, Letter Size, Green Poly, 5 per Pack (89523)
These are my favorite right now because I use them for several things in our homeschool organization. I use them to hold unit studies, all the printable packs I print out and I also use them for workboxes. I have tried multiple things as workboxes and these are my best find. They are durable and the boys can see the contents inside. They are strong enough to hold large high school size books, a folder and spiral notebook. I Velcro the workbox tags to the outside and tape their lesson to the outside. They close up tight and nothing falls out or gets lost! Works great! ~ Janeen Herlugson, Sprouting Tadpoles

Are you all finished with your homeschool shopping? What is on your supply list?
I think I am all finished, but I will hit the clearances next week to see if there’s anything good left. 🙂
I don’t think I’m EVER done, there’s so many wonderful things out there!! Near term, I’d like to get some new dry erase markers. My kids really like the Bic ones, but they’re harder to find. Of course, there are ALWAYS books on the list!!! Longer term, I’m dreaming of a laminator…
As homeschoolers, are we ever done with “back to school” shopping?? 😉
Haven’t even started yet!
Is the shopping ever really finished?! I’m constantly finding new things I want to try or holding off on something I want while I wait to see if I can get a better deal on it.
I have been procrastinating a little but one trip to the dollar store will get most of it 🙂 Curriculum is ready!
I could be finished but I need a language curriculum for my high schooler 🙂
We have been saving for the Mystery of History audio books and I would love to add an art book in there too. My boys would love the Nature Study book!
I need a couple of small-ticket items (folders, tape, index cards) but otherwise we are ready to go!
I am only halfway through. I still need everything for my oldest….
I still need to get just a few more things.
Yep all done! Only because we started school this week!
I haven’t even started my Back to School Shopping yet, EEP!
I am not all finished!
I am not quite finished. Need to finish ordering books, and I have a few more things like notebooks to buy.
nope not near finished yet!
