I can not adequately express my excitement over your new Time Travelers History line! It is exactly what I am looking for in terms of hands-on projects, without much of the things I'll never use in a typical unit study....We had planned to cover the Ancients next year, but now I may want to reconsider!
Thank for you offering such consistently exceptional materials! You products fill a much needed void.

Hi! I just want to thank you for the Time Travelers History study. I have been homeschooling 10 years and used everything except a packaged curriculum - and by far this is the most fun we have had! My 9 year old is loving this!!!! I love that all the instruction are there and I don't have to come up I with the ideas on my own. Honestly I don't know if I could come up with all of these good ideas anyway! We have done other lapbooks ... but this is so much MORE. I hope you will be producing more of these and SOON. Thanks for a great way to start off this school year...only what will I come up with next to measure up this this???????

My son absolutely hated history before we started this. I was bound and determined this year to take a more textbook approach. After a few months of that I realized that I didn't even remember one single thing that we had been learning over the past 3 months. So, then I started questioning my children about what we had learned in history so far and they didn't remember anything either. So, it was back to the drawing board to find something else. Our local homeschool store recommended your program and I have to say that all 3 (13, 12, & 8) of my kids love it. My oldest son (13) said that for the first time he actually feels like he is learning something about history!
