taking two years to finsih preparing

Post by pjsullivan » Mon Apr 19, 2010 9:42 am

I am thinking of using preparing for my 8 yr old twins. Can i use this for two years? Or have people found themselves getting "bored" using the same thing for two years?
thanks

I've used several HOD guides over the course of 1 1/2 to 2 years and really enjoyed it. :D I have never found anything to be boring in HOD, but I believe boredom is somewhat of a choice, since it is really somewhat of a chosen attitude. We have loved the slower pacing of going half-speed when my dc are on the young end of target age ranges for HOD. We've often found a time just seems to present itself to go full-speed though. You may find that after awhile, and then it's easy to just go ahead and jump into full-speed at that point. :D HTH!

In Christ,
