Classic Favorite Children's Stories

Classic favorite children's stories are always discounted at Schoolhouse Publishing Homeschool Store!

I'm sure you can tell by my selection of elementary programs that my favorite method of teaching young'ns is to cuddle up with them and learn. There are so many advantages to this method, including building love and trust between you the teacher and the student (invaluable as your kids get older), instilling confidence in them, and even including your preschoolers in your lessons. These classic children's stories are not just fun to read, some are historical, some geographical and others even scientific.
