Educating at Home and Abroad

With back to school starting and my desire to fill our shelves with books for the boys that enhance their reading, feed their minds and give answers to so many questions that I don’t have the answer to I decided to host an Usborne Books party. I am not one who usually does this. In fact this may be my first party to host, but the product is too phenomenal to let it pass by. Plus, they even have books for Grace!

The boys are at an age where they want to know how everything works and I am happy Usborne Books offers so many options for us moms not mechanically minded, I will be learning with them. As I watch their minds soak up every bit of information and their eagerness to learn I am amazed at how quickly they catch on. I love seeing their desire to read or try a new problem. I guess I probably value education more now that I am a mom than when I was a student. It truly opens doors.

Unfortunately, many children in other parts of the world cannot afford to go to school not even what would be considered a public school. Thankfully there are amazing non-profits like the Fern House located in Ghana that take in children and give them shelter and food. They also do their best to find sponsors so the children are able to go to school.

Another reason I wanted to host an Usborne Books party, 20% of the sales will go to the Fern House. I am excited to see how much we can raise, perhaps enough to send a child to school for a few months.

The party starts Tuesday online, but you can order at anytime during the week at Usborne Books.
