I received my boxes on Friday and I love the look of all the books! In fact, my oldest has been reading his sister's books already (because he knows he would just have to read his again for school!) so even though he's not going to do
Preparing....he will still benefit from at least
some of the reading on his own. My daughter read part of one too, and insists that she won't mind doing it for school as well, but I think I'll discourage reading ahead for the most part just in case.
I am so excited to get into
PHFHG with her, doing something that's 'just us' again will be fun. And I'm thrilled that my older son will be reading all the books in
CTC. I may just have to do the program myself so I don't miss out on all he's learning.....but I do love that it's so independent, which is much needed here at this time. My younger ds will be plugging along in
RME and his
Saxon math, along with parts of
LHTH that we still haven't completed...he's older than the age range but since I decided he'll do
LHFHG as a first grader we still have the rest of this year to work through
LHTH. I really think he will still enjoy it. Having not gone through a pre-school program he will enjoy all the guided art projects and he could still use the review of letter sounds. Plus, we definitely need the bible portion for him, so all around a great thing. Our lives have been kind of crazy over the past few years with moving and a new baby and moving again last week.
It will be nice to settle into
HOD now again and stay put there for the next while. I can't wait to get started.
