This past month I was able to get a subscription to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine in a digital format. I already had a subscription to this magazine that I received in the mail. So why did I jump at the chance for the digital version too? Well, because to put it quite simply, it is fantastic!
I am thrilled that the publishers made this magazine available digitally. I keep many of my records on my computer and I do a lot of my school planning there. Now it is even easier since I have the latest and greatest information just a click away. I have found the digital version to be extremely easy to use and I love how it retains the feel of actually flipping pages in a traditional magazine.
I have chosen just one magazine to have in my home for homeschooling and it is The Old Schoolhouse Magazine. The information that is provided within the pages is invaluable to me as I search for ways to improve the homeschooling experience for my son. This past issue eloquently spelled out what a Charlotte Mason Education was and contained articles about schooling children with special needs as well as gifted children. It was a great read from cover to cover.
If you haven’t checked out this great magazine, you will want to be sure to put it on your list of purchases to make. At only $16.95 for a year, it is not only affordable, but the information you will gain will be priceless.
What do you love about The Old Schoolhouse Magazine? Which version do you prefer? Leave me a comment and share.

I found your blog through a message you left on the K12 parent website and I’m glad I found you. Although, I don’t wander too far from the K12 curriculum, I like to be able to know what is out there for homeschoolers. In the TOS spring issue, I discovered a wonderful program called The Violin Book. This is a program to teach your children how to play the violin without the parent having had any prior experience with the violin. I’ve been using this curriculum in the early summer and while the violin is not an easy instrument to play, my son and I are having a ball.
