General Supplies Lists
When we talk about homeschool resources, we know full well that the parent is the ultimate resource for their children. Your ingenuity, creativity, and time spent will reap rewards for your kids more than anything else. When we suggest resources please keep that in mind. We know not everyone can or should buy every single thing we might suggest or link, but we want to provide you with ideas! We also see a lot of value in parents being wise about where they spend their money and time. So if something will amplify your time, consider purchasing it. If it will eat up your time, perhaps leave it as an idea for now.
We have an Amazon Associates account and at no extra cost to you, we will receive a portion of purchase price if you purchase through our links — which helps us fund the annual conference, add more resources to our membership, and provide more opportunities for homeschool families. Thank you for considering purchasing through our Amazon links. Or purchase whatever you’d like through our Amazon Smile site.
Our team has certain items they rely on for day to day homeschooling, and they’re handy to have. They are not strict necessities, but these are the items we turn to constantly to help streamline our days, which helps stretch our resources and time.
