The Old Schoolhouse Magazine Fall Special

The Old Schoolhouse Magazine, one of my favorite homeschooling magazines, is currently offering a Fall Special. This top-notch quarterly publication is always packed with practical helps, encouraging testimonies, and relevant homeschooling topics. If you subscribe now, you can get two years of the magazine, 6 fabulous physical
gifts (no downloads!) worth over $120, plus the current issue of The Old Schoolhouse Magazine that is full of ideas for the new school year, so you start receiving your magazine in a flash! It really is one of their best deals ever and you don't want to miss out. In fact, they've got a really cute Homeschooling with Heart tote bag (valued at $13.95) for the first 1000 to subscribe. About half of them are gone, but you should still be able to get one if you hurry! (They will remove the info from the subscription page when the bags are all gone.) The total value is over $212, but you receive it all for only $39 - 50% off of cover price! Plus subscribers get their online monthly Teacher's Toolbox which focuses on a different topic each month, giving you words of encouragement, hands-on teaching
ideas, book recommendations, field trip ideas, and a bonus download item. I have never read a homeschooling magazine loaded with so much inspiring, and useful information. It is actually one of the few magazines I keep because each one is so precious to me. I encourage you to take advantage of this awesome deal. Click here to learn more...
