2014 Schoolhouse Review Crew Awards!

Review Collage
The Schoolhouse Review Crew has wrapped up this year of reviews and voted on our favorites, so I thought I’d take a minute to look back through the year at the products our family was blessed to review in 2014:

That’s quite a list!  It makes me a little tired looking at it, but really it has been such a blessing to be a part of the Schoolhouse Review Crew.  I’m already getting excited about next year!

What We’re Still Using (Or Plan to Use in the Future)

Some of these products we just used during the review period, but others became a more established part of our family.  Here are the things that have stuck around:

  1. Spelling You See is a part of our daily routine
  2. The Brinkman Adventures is still occasionally the boys’ choice for bedtime stories.
  3. Wizzy Gizmo hasn’t been put on for a couple weeks, but my kids still quote it regularly, and I’m sure it will make it’s way back soon.
  4. The Preschoolers and Peace e-book continues to influence the way I structure our day.

Ian also requests Science4Us occasionally, but our subscription ran out and I chose not to purchase a new one.  I’d like to finish the full courses from Middlebury Interactive Languages and ARTistic Pursuits, but we haven’t touched them recently.

The boys haven’t gone on Mathletics much lately, but I’d like to encourage them back on it (perhaps over the holidays when we take a break from our normal math program).  It’s the one online subscription I’ve considered purchasing for our family to continue using.

Crew Favorites

There were lots of additional products other members of the Crew reviewed as well.  It was hard to choose our favorites in each category, but if you want to see what products were the most popular with Crew families, check out the 2014 Blue Ribbon Awards.
