I planned for this to be about homemaking and homeschooling, but now it's just a chaotic jumble of news and ideas about animals, kids, food, and other random thoughts.

Good Kids' Stuff

Videos/DVD that actually (somewhat) follow the book:
Charlotte's Web (book is by E.B. White)
The Adventures of Paddington Bear (book is by Michael Bond)
The Black Stallion (shipwreck scene is scary for youngest ones) (book is by Walter Farley)
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (Disney - these are cartoons that are over 25 years old) (books are by A.A. Milne)
Curious George Goes to the Hospital (book by H.A. Rey) This video includes Mouse Soup (by Arnold Lobel) and Morris Has a Cold (not sure who wrote it), which are both very funny and better than Curious George in our opinion

Educational Toys
Lauri puzzles and toys
Puzzles by Melissa & Doug
A Buki activity books (coloring books, dot-to-dot, mazes, etc.)

Stories to Listen To
Jim Weiss' recordings (Greathall Productions)
Jonathan Park (radio drama by Vision Forum with a strong creation emphasis, for school-aged kids)
