We are BIG fans of The Good and the Beautiful handwriting workbooks. They are simple and pretty much entirely child led and teach beautiful handwriting. AND if your kiddos love coloring {mine are addicted} this will be a slam dunk for everyone involved! What age should I start? This course is super simple but I …
{REVIEW} The Good and the Beautiful Language Arts Level K Primer
This was our second time going through The Good and the Beautiful Level K Primer for language arts and it remains so good.
