Affording the homeschool lifestyle is easier when you can find a great deal on what you need.

I will often browse online bookstores and then take the titles to search at our local library.
Educational toys and homeschool manipulatives
Keeping the younger children occupied with educational toys can help you spend more time focused on educating your older children.
Monthly activity box subscriptions
These companies provide homeschoolers with the opportunity to subscribe and received a themed box of surprises each month. Some offer more educational value than others but all are super-fun to receive and make excellent gifts.
- Kiwi Crate
- Tinker Crate
- Koala Crate
- Doodle Crate
- BabbaBox
- Little Passports
- Junior Explorers
- Ivy-Kids
Educational magazine subscriptions
NOTE: While I try to only recommend wholesome, family-friendly magazines, sometimes magazines will print materials opposed to what I personally believe. I cannot be held accountable for the complete contents of any magazine.
Appropriate for girls over 8 years old, American Girl magazine includes craft ideas, puzzles, contests, advice, games, and other fun activities and articles in each issue.
I personally subscribe to Family Fun, designed for parents of children ages 3 to 12, because each magazine is filled with creative ideas for incorporating hands-on fun through creating, cooking, and learning.
KIWI introduces families to living a natural and organic lifestyle on an everyday basis.
For ages 7-18, Boys Life attempts to focus on what young guys like, bringing adventure, fun and excitement in every issue with a balance of fiction and non-fiction, great jokes, scouting tips and examples of good citizenship.
Relatively new, Fun For Kidz is for boys and girls ages 5-13 years and contains no advertising, no violence and no teen material. Each theme-based issue includes projects to make, build, draw, cook and create.
Created to challenge young girls to enjoy childhood and not grow up too quickly, Hopscotch is a wholesome magazine for girls age 8-14with each issue featuring exciting stories, riddles, poetry, profiles and interviews, crafts, puzzles and a question and answer column for girls without material about boyfriends, makeup, fashion, fads, etc.
Since 1938, Jack & Jill has provided the best stories and educational activities for their children ages 6-12 through stories, articles, crafts, games, health and fitness, poetry, fiction, jokes, puzzles, easy recipes and true life, inspiring stories about real people.
Ranger Rick (ages 7-12) and Ranger Rick Jr. (ages 3-7) are packed with amazing animal facts and stunning wildlife photos.
Created for young readers, Zoobooks is delivered ten times a year and is packed with educational information about the animals your children love.
