The Holidays are coming! It’s subscription box time! I was late to the subscription box party, only signing up when the twins were around 9. I thought it was a waste of money, but for all you get it’s really been a bonus for our homeschooling (ok, for all the ‘me’ time I get!).
I’ll update this every Sunday with the latest deals, which is hard to remember so I will send the realllllyyy good deals in the newsletter so you don’t miss out.
We have found many ways to use them in our homeschool and to make our lives run smoother. The boxes we prefer have multiple uses so it’s not just open, play for 20 minutes and then it’s lying around for days before someone yells that someone should clean it up! (That’s me, too.)

There’s also the Robot Workhop, Soaring Into Flight, Climate Change and dinosaurs, volcanoes, so much more. I was impressed with all of the options in one box. We did the 3 month and really enjoyed it.
Food Boxes
Yes, I know. It doesn’t seem that you would put food in your homeschool. BUT! When my meals are planned and I get fresh ideas at my doorstep, I am a happier and more organized homeschool mama.
I like trying new things but I don’t want to buy a bunch of stuff. My husband is pre-diabetes and since we started cutting carbs, his blood sugars have dipped significantly. But I love a good snack, sauces and fun ideas, not just protein and vegetables. I found this and decided to do it for three months. Loved it!
