HomeSchooling Handbook for Moms and RoseArt Markers Review

Okay so the Roseart markers came from Amazon on the 10th and they are magnificent. I adore them. The colors are vibrant and yes, there are 100 different colors just as the box says. They color smoothly on the paper and are washable. But only one set back...they bleed through the paper. :(

Here is a coloring page that I started in my Homeschooling Handbook for Moms. The Pictures in the book are amazing and I love coloring. I am so glad that there are coloring pages mixed in the book so I can take some time to color with the girls when they are doing their school work and coloring too. :) 

And here is the backside of the page. I don't know if you can tell what the page is from the picture, but it's the Mom's Illustrated To-Do List that I just wrote my To-Do list in the frames .... And the markers bled through the page and on to the following page as well.... which is a Menu Planning page aka a recipe Page ...

So although the markers are fabulous and we will continue to utilize them, I think I will use them else where instead of our Journals and Handbooks unless it's absolutely necessary that we have to use the markers in our books :).

Enough about the Markers.... Let's get into the real nitty gritty, the Homeschooling Handbook for Moms. Oh My Goodness! What a fantastic book this is ! I do not know where to begin. First off, I need to check out my books from the library, which I have yet to do (I know, I am so bad and a procrastinator) but I have been so busy with the girls and feeling bad and other things that I have yet to have time to. But I have jumped right in and started with my book in other ways. :) This book is packed to the gills with all of us Mom's need to keep us on track in our daily lives...from planning meals, planning tasks with the kids, planning fun and educational ideas, daily journaling, prayers, ideas, thoughts....ugh, I could go on, but....then I'd spoil all the F-U-N for you. ;) You really just need to check this book out for yourself. I have written down recipes, planned meals, recorded ideas for Fun outings and websites and apps to check out, book lists the girls should read, colored pages in between and done exactly what the subtitle of the book suggests ... Taught By Example. My girls see me with my book and they pull out a book of theirs and sit with me, or they see me coloring and they come grab a coloring pencil and have a chat for a moment or two and help out :) I LOVE it. It's amazing. But don't just take my word for it, go grab one for your self and you will open a magic door or window of infinite possibilities in to your homeschooling world as well.  You can pick up a copy at Amazon here.
