Review: The Adventum
Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.
My kids enjoy listening to audio dramas for bedtime and in the car. For the last several weeks, my kids have been listening to The Adventum, Volume 1 as they get ready to sleep.
The Adventum is an audio adventure series that features powerful music, over 50 actors, and amazing sound effects so that you feel like you are actually present at Bible events. In Volume 1, your family can experience Adam walking in the garden, Noah building the ark, and Abraham taking Isaac to be sacrificed. This volume is over 4 hours long. There are 4 cds in this set so siblings can share and listen to separate cds at the same time. Digital downloads are also available if that is what you prefer.
The three-fold objective of The Adventum is to:
- Identify with Bible heroes of the past – real people with real struggles – much like us.
- Stir the imagination and create a deep sense of wonder about the stories of the Bible.
- Ignite a hunger to study God’s Word.
Our Thoughts:
I was impressed with The Adventum audio series. This review is the first time I’ve heard of this company and I’m glad we had the opportunity to check it out. My 4 younger kids (ages 15-6) listened to the adventures and all gave it a “thumbs up”.
Here’s what my 11 year old had to say about The Adventum:
I thought it was a nice cd to listen to because it had good descriptions for the people of the Bible and made it sound real. It also was neat to hear and learn more about God! It had fun voices for the characters in the stories. I want to ask for more of these for Christmas.
I think given the feedback from my daughter and from the rest of my kids, these will definitely be on the Christmas list and even be a great option to gift to others. It’s always great to have something to listen to that teaches God’s word and is fun!

Review: The Story of Ping Study Guide by Progeny Press
Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.As a homeschooling family, we love reading books in our house. You can take the books a step further by using a literature study guide. We’ve been working through The Story of Ping Study Guide from Progeny Press with our first grader.
A couple of years ago we reviewed Hound of the Baskervilles Study Guide from the same company and loved it, so we knew this one was going to be just as wonderful for our family.
About the Story:
Ping, the duck, lives on a boat on the Yangtze River in China. Every day he and his duck family are taken by their owner to feed on the riverbank. Later, when it is evening, Ping is the last duck to return to the boat, so he hides to avoid being spanked. The following day Ping, feeling lost, begins to swim in search of his family. Along the way, Ping observes some cormorant fishing birds. A boy captures Ping for his family’s dinner, but the boy releases Ping that evening. Upon being released, he sees his master’s boat. He hurries to return to his family knowing he will be the last duck again, but this time he accepts the punishment
Our Thoughts:
The Story of Ping is such a great book. In fact, it was my husband’s favorite book as a child so I had him work through The Story of Ping Study Guide with our son. This story guide is an interactive PDF file so we can print the work or we can type in the answers online. We ended up orally discussing the answers together instead of doing either of those options, but we did print the fun coloring pages, word search, and maze.
I really liked the pre-reading activities. This gave us a links to watch videos online to help enhance learning. It also listed Bible verses to read together and discussion questions. In addition to discussing the story, there are opportunities to discuss the artwork as well. After-You-Read Activities of course are activities for after the book is read. These were amazing ideas on discussing family trees, emergency plans, and even planning field trips.
So much great information and activities were packed into The Story of Ping Study Guide. I’m so thankful we had the opportunity to use these great materials and I look forward to checking out more literature study guides from Progeny Press.

Review: Super Teacher Worksheets
Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.
As a homeschooling family, we occasionally need a little extra work in certain areas or even just some busy work. One of my favorite websites to turn to in times like that is Super Teacher Worksheets. Through this website, we can print a variety of worksheets for the whole family! I have been using this website since my oldest, who has now graduated, was little.
At a quick glance, I can easily see that worksheets are provided for math, reading comprehension, writing, phonics, grammar, spelling, literacy units, science, social studies, brain teasers, and more. This barely touches the surface of the vastness of the website, though. The more I looked for worksheets, the more I found! There is even a huge section for foreign language worksheets! It would take all day to tell you about the many things included in a membership, so I will tell you about the top ones on my list.
My favorite aspect of this program is the Worksheet Generator. This is as awesome as it sounds! All I have to do is select the type of worksheet I’d like, from addition problems to classroom Bingo, to word searches. Then I adjust any settings and instantly I have a brand new worksheet for my kids! This is great, especially for when I have a student struggling with a particular concept. The generator can also help create quizzes and tests with ease! My co-op students love it when I make a word search with all of their names in it and then they have to find everyone.
In addition to just busy work and learning enhancement, Super Teacher Worksheets offers worksheets for holidays, special events, and topic studies, too.
I have been using the worksheets often with our local homeschool co-op and the kids are always excited when they see what new ones I have for them each week. I’ll be teaching science this year and I’ve already made quite the lesson plans just using the wonderful worksheets available. We will be focussing on Space and Weather, both of which have plenty of worksheets available.
For more information and to browse to see what is available, you can visit the Super Teacher Worksheets website. You can also find out more on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.
Although there are some worksheets available for free, you can also purchase a subscription to have access to far more worksheets and the generator. A year subscription to Super Teacher Worksheets is only $24.95. In my opinion, and with this variety of worksheets at your fingertips, it’s well worth the investment.
