One of my favorite things about Dover Publications is their collection of historical discovery kits (like this one!) that combine living books with activities.

They have kits covering the Revolutionary & Civil Wars, Shakespeare, WWII and more–use code WHAX for 25% OFF!

The downloadable science mini-courses from Be Naturally Curious are super-inexpensive, created by professional scientists/passionate nature lovers, & ideal for K-5th graders!

Each course (a dozen to choose from) teaches concepts through stories, crafts, games, movement-based activities, and experiments.

“Thought breeds thought; children familiar with great thoughts take as naturally to thinking for themselves as the well-nourished body takes to growing; and we must bear in mind that growth, physical, intellectual, moral, spiritual, is the sole end of education.”
