» frugalhomeschool - Using the Library
I love to look at the homeschooling catalogs and all of the great fiction they offer. I make a list of books my kids will need and then take them to the card catalog on computer and see how many of them the library already has. It always amazes me that more than half of the books were sitting right there on the shelf for free!-- posted by frugalhomeschool

» frugalhomeschool - Using Pizza Plates
Use round cardboard pizza bottoms from frozen pizza to create perfect mobile projects with your kids. You can cover the pizza plate with foil or construction paper. Punch holes around the outside of the circle then attach strings and mobile objects. Staple a loop of string or yarn on top and hang up.The Frugal Homeschooler

» XLadyRogue - Re: Using the Library
In response to message posted by frugalhomeschool:I too get many of the catalogs. I choose what we will need for the next year and also the things I would like to have but don't absolutely need.
Instead of taking that list to the library, I take it to second hand shops and online second hand sites.
