Using Usborne Books in your Homeschool

Homeschooling with Usborne Books. From Unit Studies to Chapter books, Usborne had all the books you need to add to your homeschool!

We believe in a relaxed, child-led approach to education allowing the kids to pursue their interests. Because of this, I like to have books on lots of various subjects available to them. When my kids have a question, my famous line is, “We have a book about that!” Books are available for literally every subject. They are made for tough little readers and are surprisingly durable compared to a lot of other books we have! Usborne Books and More just never disappoints me! Let me show you how you can add Usborne Books in your homeschool.

College Prep Science. Online homeschool science classes for high schoolers to help save your sanity!

When it comes to language arts and history, I’m your girl. I will read through all the classic literature, research all the history events and find the most amazing field trips to battle fields, museums, and more.

But math and science? That’s where I’m lost. Outside of observing nature, I’m not a great science teacher.
