The sooner you switch to your domain, the quicker that domain will get good links back to it. I still have external links pointing to javajohnz.blogspot.com that don't count towards the quality of links to the blog.$10 to use on Educents.com, FREE!
I just posted about Top Homeschool Picks. If you've never used them before and you sign up now, they'll give you $10 to use on Educents.com. They're a great resource for the homeschooling family or just the family who wants that little something extra for their child's education.

Top Homeschool Picks
Growing up, I always thought about homeschooling. I didn't know what it was at the time but I didn't find myself challenged in a regular classroom. Nowadays, with an eight year old, I find myself constantly looking for tougher and tougher math worksheets. I'm proud to say he's doing well with exponents and multi-digit multiplication. We'll have to see what 2016 has in store. He's already lost mom with the math homework.
No matter what may be on your lesson plan for 2016, consider the resources below. Members within the Educents community put a list together of their favorite homeschool resources. If you'd like to learn more about the resource, just click the link!

I love giving gifts that don't add clutter to peoples homes, and especially when buying for families as a group it is so much more fun to get them an "experience gift" so they can have fun as a family! Close to my house LivingSocial offers whale watching trips, horse back riding lessons, and even tours to Hollywood!

If you're looking forward to the movie, here are a handful of links you may or may not enjoy. No spoilers in this article, however tempting.
