Those small books Fruits of the Spirit you can also purchase at one of the dollar stores. Just thought I would throw that out there in case u want one for each kid. I use a lot of TGTB stuff but I also use a ton of MB too. Their sciences and history for high school are amazing!
Ken Ham will be releasing Answers In Genesis Homeschool Bible Curriculum that I'm waiting to try. I watched a documentary on Ken Ham vs Ben Nye and he have a really sound spirit. I love how he weave Bible in all of his science curriculum that we purchased from Masterbooks
Thank you for sharing!! I’ve been shaving my eye on that set of books. Will use your link for sure!!
Thank you so much for the time you take to make these informative videos, they are so helpful❤️
Thanks for sharing bible ideas and what has and hasn't worked! :-)
Cannot tell you how excited I was to see this video! I've been looking for it since you said you were sharing it! Thanks so much!!
Thank you for posting! This is very helpful!
I am a new subscriber and have found so much value in your videos. Thankyou for this! And for the skill share trial!
I am going to get the bundle next semester! Love master books and they just came out with video lessons to go along with some high school courses they offer too!
Getting my coffee now! Excited to hear all about it...
This is exactly what I needed! I’ve been finding that I need more Bible in my homeschool and just didn’t know what to try. Thank you! 💖
I first heard about My 24 Family Ways from you last year, and it’s been recommended by so many others since! We will be doing this curriculum for 2021/2022! So excited!
We love these books!! I agree the answers for kids/teens/DVDs are a must! ❤️ MB and answers in genesis are great for science hands down!
Wow! So many amazing ideas! Plan on checking out Skill share soon. Thank you 😊
I appreciate this review. I am looking into Masterbooks family morning basket for next school year. We did Answer books last year and loved it.
I love every single one of your videos. Thank you for all your homeschooling wisdom! It has been so nice to see and listen to every thing you use and teach your children as a Christian mama. I feel so blessed to glean from your knowledge as I am starting this journey with my 3rd grade daughter. My daughter loves to watch your videos of your daughter doing school. It has helped her not miss her friends so much through this crazy time of quarantine life. So thank you for blessing our family. We appreciate your family so much!
Perfect timing for this video! This is the second time today I’ve heard about 24 Family Ways! Currently reading through Sally Clarksons Life Giving Home and I can’t put it down! Off to look up all these recommendations! THANK YOU! 💙
yay Bible video!! grabbing the tea!
Yay! Thanks for being here!
I have been admiring your Bible time for a little while now. I tried to find your materials in all the usual places. This video came at the perfect time, I’ve got everything ordered now. Thanks yet again, Ashlee!!
Yes, I just purchased the same set and I adore it! It's been such a great conversation starter. I need to order the kids questions books. I've been going through the fruits of the spirit together with them, and then using one or two lines for the boys to give their answers.
Thank you so much for this! We are wrapping up our 24 Family Ways based on your recommendation and we have just loved it! Just used your link to buy this bundle. We are almost all set for next year already! Thank you and God Bless!
So happy to hear you loved 24 family ways we are new to homeschool this next fall and I picked that for our Bible time 😊
I bought that tough questions book after seeing it in one of your other videos!
Thanks for putting time into this for us. I had purchased a daily devotional for homeschool and after a week hates it and felt it was not what we wanted love this. Can’t seem to find the bundle in MB that you referred too but will keep looking.
I struggle sometimes because I have a 13 year old with high functioning autism. She is elearning this year but I am praying about homeschooling her. My son is 11 and I have homeschooled him for years. I feel like I haven’t had a great routine ever with him. I have struggled with depression and my own adhd and fatigue issues from my thyroid and weight. You have really helped me stay motivated lately so I am so thankful Ashlee. You have been a Godsend to me these past few weeks. My husband just got laid off and I am scared I may have to stop homeschooling but we are so trying not to. I want to be more organized like you! Your so good at all that you do.
So great!!! I am looking for ideas for next year, I might look into he fruits of the spirit books!!
We absolutely love Masterbooks. We use them exclusively. We love the Answers for kids series. I just ordered Answers for Teens and 9 things teens should know and can’t wait for them to arrive.
I've been following you since you used Sonlight...I used Sonlight at that time too. We are using Our 24 Family Ways this year for Bible. I am so glad you gave this update. I was looking into Route 66 for next year. I may still look into those younger Route 66 books for my kids. I love Master Books! We are using them for History and Science this year and will continue into next year. Very open and go. Love Ken Hamm products. I also wanted to get that One Blood book. Looks great!
Great video thank you
Thanks for the update! We too are using the Route 66 this year. I tried making it more independent at first but realized that's not working so now we are doing it all together. My bigs are a little older than yours (15/13/12) so I think that helps. I don't mind the group format so much and so far am able to modify it. Over Christmas we brought in my littles (5/4) to read an advent story (Bartholomew's Journey). After seeing those Answers Books and the Marvelous Creation (which I know we have somewhere) I think I might bring them in for those. It was nice having all 5 kids together even with the 7 year gap.
Great update! We just started using Answers for Kids and LOVE them!!
Aren’t they great?!
I was so excited to see this video pop up today! Thank you!! It was another great, thorough video! Love hearing your thoughts and perspectives! I haven't been disappointed yet with any of your recommendations! You're a great go-to honest person for sound, practical, faith-based-perspective on enriching bible and homeschool curriculum! I cannot thank you enough for the positive influence you've had on me and my first year of homeschool! May you and your family continue to be blessed and be a blessing to others!🥰
This comment is so kind! Thankyou so much! ❤️
My older boys are doing the Answers Apologetics curriculum. I got them the books at Christmas a year ago and we enjoyed reading them but I decided to get them more focused by buying the Teacher's Guide, which has been amazing.
Masterbooks also has a schedule and worksheets that go along with the answers for kids set, we plan to do it for bible next fall :)
We are currently a few weeks in to Our 24 Family Ways...loving it so far. But I have been thinking a little about what we might do when we finish. Granted that’ll be like in the Summer or Fall. But I haven’t seen this specifically until now so I’m definitely going to put it on the list of things to check out.
I like master books I use the (More than words) book from them for Bible I like how it’s all in one book and easy to explain and keeps my 7 year old engaged. They have different levels
I’ll be purchasing these for our upcoming school year! Cannot wait to try them out! I also found Route 66 was hard to utilize in our homeschool. I thought it was me not knowing how to do it, since it is my first year 😅. Route 66 is really excellent and so informative, we’ll just have to use it at a later time. So we switched to The Daily Grace Co. ( Daily Truth for Kids & The Character of God) which has worked well this year, but were shorter than I’d like. Thank you for the update. 🙌🏼
Love Masterbooks!!!!! Biblically solid. Their science in the High School Levels are good. We've also done some of the high school apologetics and those are great too. I would say great for college kids and parents too.
I have been doing Route 66 also with my two younger boys and I feel the same way. I stopped looking forward to doing Bible with them for the same reasons you shared. But I have to say I have 3 high school girls and I’m doing Behold Our God (from same company) with them and I love it. It’s very meaty and I think it’s important to be teaching our kids these things and having the discussions. Thank you for your review of Route 66. I thought I was being picky but after hearing you share it confirmed my feelings.
We have done the More than words level 1&2. We loved them. I haven’t picked anything specific for the fall. I will have a 5th, 3rd, 4yr old and 2yr old. Can’t wait to see what you have to say!!
I was so excited to see this video today! We do Bible each morning together as a family. But have been wanting something new to add to our Bible time. Just placed a big order under your link. Thank you for taking the time to share these video's with us! They are a blessing.
Thanks so much!!!
Hi Ashley.. Because I always want you to receive the points/ credit, I did not see on your list of favorite things "The Answer Book For Kids." Even at 50 as an older mom and first time homeschooling parent you have truly been an amazing help! Thank you for your channel and all your advice.
We use Masterbooks for our curriculum for our 6 & 8 year olds. We love them, but it's our first year homeschooling so I don't have much to compare them to. I do not have the Bible curriculum, but will have to look into it. Lately, I've been using the "Adventure Bible", and reading the "Live It" sections to them. It's good, but I'd like something more. The reason I love Masterbooks is because absolutely everything in it, math, language, science; it all relates to the bible. I look forward to hearing updates about how it goes!
I use Master Books for my curriculum meat and it’s been such a blessing for our homeschool. If you haven’t looked into the apologetics section on master books website that might be something you find interesting. I am eager to use that for my kids when they get older. Thanks for sharing. I love your strong disciplined spirit. It encourages me so much.
Another recommendation for fruits of the spirit: The Children of the Light series by Mary Schmal. The books are historical fiction, probably best for 5th grade and up. So beautiful!
I am so new to homeschooling! I have really learned a lot from you! I really want to thank you! You amaze and inspire me. I am to the point where I am either going to give up and go back to public schools or I kick this in high gear and go for the long haul. The “honeymoon” stage of homeschooling my children for the first time this year is over and things are a little rough!! 🥴🥴Three of my children have grown and flown the coop.... four left at home and I am Currently teaching my two youngest. However, I am looking at possibly doing my next two oldest next year. With that said.... I think I want to go in For the long haul but I need to change a lot of things and do some things differently to make it more successful. Next year I would have A junior and a freshman on top of my two grade schoolers if I should choose to teach them. I share the same religion as Jenny Phillips and for those who do as well.... we use the “Come Follow Me” manual from our church to teach our children out of each day. Some really good teachings in there! Keep up the amazing work and thank you again!
Thanks for this video! I am still trying to figure out what I want to do for Bible in our homeschool for the fall. I am going to have a Kindergartener and a Preschool age kids next year. I was kind of bouncing from book to book this year and wasn't really liking anything we did.
A Strong's Concordance would help with children understanding the Bible. It's a Hebrew and Greek Dictionary.
I wanted to bring the whole book store home from the Ark with me when we went. Lol. Great video. Just wanted to throw out there we use BJU press DLO for Bible the last few years. I just pick an age level in the middle of my kids ages and we all work on together. My older kids benefit just as much as my wee littles. Also solid Bible and kiddos love. Also incorporates hymns, "sword drills" and hero's of the faith in case you wanted something more structured and open and go for you the mom.
Those ywam books!! 💗 ❤️
Thanks for the Bible update. I was wondering what you were using. I also did a switch after December. We switched to bible devotions by Desiring Gods Children Ministry. I’m not surprised it has been such a blessing. John Piper has been a blessing to my spiritual walk. He pours his heart and soul into his ministry and this children’s ministry is no different. They are so thorough and thought provoking. We are currently working on God’s battle. It teaches children how to fight sin. Thank you for sharing what your using. I will be buying that book on race. Very important with the climate right now.
It’s been a great resource!
Completely unrelated but I got the same shirt you are wearing from target because I saw you recommended it on your insta stories so thanks! I needed more long sleeve shirts.
Hope you like it!
I wanted to love Masterbooks so much but just couldn’t for core subjects- their More Than Words Bible study although very elementary, my son did love. I have the Apoligia book Who is God but it’s a little complex For my son right now. 🤷🏼♀️
Not Consumed has some great Bible studies
You should check out BJU press bible curriculum for future. Its very in depth.
September and Co is located where I live! 🙌 Small world.
My wife watched you till about 1:30am last night. I kept telling her to turn it down but I think she just kept pretending to turn it down.
Needless to say I was exhausted at work today from "staying up so late" 🤣
I’m so sorry 😅
❤
Missionary book series from Whywin publishing? I couldn't catch the name. I couldn't tell on the amazon list which ones where in the series. I'd appreciate an answer. New sub.! Love your channel already.
Looks wonderful!
Thank you so much for sharing! :) I am planning our Bible curriculum for next year and would love to check out the Bible set from MasterBooks that you shared. But when I click the link, it takes me to the masterbooks home page and I'm not sure what I should search for or where to find it on the site. Any help that you could offer would be fantastic! Thanks again!
Hey girl! Where is that coffee mug from?! I have the one from your Bonfire shop, but I'd really like that one also! 😊
Hallmark! I didn’t make this one!
Thank you for this video. I don’t see a link to the Answers books that you referred to. Went looking forward a video on them on your channel as well. If you have a moment could you please drop a link here?
My Amazon storefront has them linked!
Hi there, thanks for this video!!
I don’t see your Amazon favorites linked below like you mentioned it was when you were talking about the missionary stories that you would have there. Do you have a link somewhere else?
I’d also love a link to the Answers for Kids series you mentioned in this video. Is this the one by Ken Hamm?
And finally, I went to the link you have for the Bible bundle by Master Books but when you click on link, it isn’t what shows up. I did some searching on there but didn’t find it…
Totally off topic but....OMG your hair looked so cute today. =-)
So sweet! Thankyou!
I have been waiting for this video since you showed a snippet of your morning time! Do you find that the answer books go along well with the character trait cards?
Yes! We enjoy the combo!
if you just had the younger two would you do route 66?? I have two that age and was thinking of just doing the younger version
Can you please share again the link for the Bible Character Cards? The etsy link does not work
What made you start homeschooling? Did your older kids go to public school before? Do you have that story somewhere? I need to get more Bible in my kids homeschool.
Wait! Which book do you read a question out of every morning ? I’m under the impression that it was a different book than the master books.
Can I ask how your hair is cut? Is it layered? Your hair is thick like mine and I love your haircut.
Do you use the small square shaped Answers for Kids books or The New Answers books that are for older children? Thanks!
Currently small square ones
I can’t seem to find that Bible bundle. I clicked the link, but nothing came up.
Just an FYI, the link doesn't go straight to the bundle. I tried looking it up with the categories a bunch of ways and finally just searched "family" and found it.
Also, not sure if you noticed, but there's a "schedule" that shows you what to read on what day to use it 5 days a week for a 36 week year. I never actually follow that stuff exactly either but it sometimes helps to have a framework. Though can download it for free from the page that the item is on.
Do you have have the combo set of the character cards? Or just the Bible one?
Just the character cards
Do you think Route 66 would be good for a co-op class? Thanks!
Yes!
My kids are 8 and 9. I have been trying to decide on a Bible curriculum for them. I have been looking at Route 66 and wondering about it. Since they are so close in age, would this work really good for them? I do like the layout and I Always love to get your opinion on things you have used. Thanks so much, Ali Lewis
You may enjoy it! Simple and sweet!
i just read bible stories but they just want to hear noahs ark over and over. we did a bible app for kids together but it kept crashing so most of their bible stuff is veggies tales we hardly do bible and i hope to change it.
Another question.....do you do it through the summer as well?
