Yesterday I talked about the TOS Digital Magazine and how I love it. Today I want to tell you about another product from The Old Schoolhouse that I absolutely love. What am I talking about? The Schoolhouse Planner. I purchased this product in July and it has been an invaluable resource to me as I have planned my school year. There is so much information available in this planner that I was literally floored when I got it.
The planner is jampacked with lesson plan ideas, planning worksheets for just about anything you can possibly think of and forms, forms and more forms. Another of my favorite features are the recipes that are included in each month. I am a recipe junkie, so more recipes equals more food ideas and that is always a good thing in my home.
One of the greatest features is the many different articles that are included by several well known authors in the homechool community. These articles are informative and inspiring. There is an article for each month by one of the following authors: Martha Greene, Amanda Bennett, Kim Kautzer, Anne-Claire Bocage, Dena Wood, Jeannie Fulbright, Terri Johnson, JoJo Tabares, Amy Pak, Carolyn Hurst, and Janice Campbell.
If all of this isn’t enough, the great folks over at The Old Schoolhouse even thought to include various household forms for your use. These are just great and I appreciate the inclusion of them in this product. For more information on The Schoolhouse Planner, you can visit the Schoolhouse Store. (You can even get a sneak peek at this great product if you want!)
The Schoolhouse Planner is a great deal at $39, but how about if you could get one of these for free? Thanks to the great people at The Old Schoolhouse, I have arranged a special giveaway for you where one of my lucky readers will get to receive a free copy of The Schoolhouse Planner, a $39 value!

This is my first year with IDVA and homeschooling my daughter. I had not heard about this book but after looking into it I can’t believe the amount of information that is in it. I am still trying to figure out how to keep up with my normal housework and help my daughter with her school work plus teach her things that she would normally learn in school. Having this book would be an amazing and wonderful outlet and learning tool for me. It would be a really cool book to have. I would love the chance to win it.

For this family of six , the planner looks like a life saver. This is my first year homeschooling after six years in public school. I resigned from my “outside” job of seven years because I felt led to be home full time and teach my children what they weren’t learning in public school. We officially started homeschooling this past week and all is going pretty good. I still have no clue about some things and am trying to get organized with everyone’s seperate schedules, dinner ideas, some lessons and all other homeschool and family issues. I would love to win the homeschool planner but would also appreciate any help or ideas from veteran homeschool moms.
