CONTEST!!!!!

Posted in Contests

   OK! So I've decided that it is about time we had a contest on this side of the Atlantic! So this one is just for UK bloggers!  Sorry to all of our American friends, but this one is just for us. You guys have TONS of contests.

   I think I'm going to try and have one a month and I've got some neat homeschool books as prizes! But for this first one, I've got something VERY special!! Drumroll please!  The prize is a copy of the LATEST, Fall issue of TOS!!!!! I had a few copies arrive in the post this morning and I'm going to share!!! (for anyone who didn't realize, this issue only came out this week in the states. So you can get it almost hot off the press!)

   I know that many of you have never seen a copy of the magazine! So here is your chance! Now, what do you have to do to win this fantastic prize? Well, here it is! Tell us about the best resource for homeschooling you have ever found!

   Now, you can't just say 'the internet', or 'the TV', or 'the Bible',or 'the library'. All of those are TERRIFIC resources, but we all have them. I mean a specific website, or book, or place to visit, or game, or whatever!

   We want to hear about the best stuff available to us over here. Or that has been worth the cost of shipping in from the states. So get writing! Just leave a comment on this entry with your best resource, and I will have my DH judge the contest since he doesn't know who any of you are from your blog names, he will be an impartial judge!  The competition closes on Saturday night at midnight. (Then DH can read the entries on Sunday and decide) I'll post the winner  on Sunday night and send the magazine out on Monday morning! 

   So get entering! I can't wait to read all the entries. Oh, and in case of a tie breaker if two of you list the same best resource, it will go to the one who tells about it most enthusiastically!
