Food for thought: BrainPOP
You may not know this about me, I educate my children at home, at the grocery store, at the park, via Community Bible Study, field trips, at the local food bank, whenever the opportunity presents itself. One of my favorite online learning tools is BrainPOP.
We have been happy members for two years. It's absolutely fun and I couldn't see living without it.
- BrainPOP is an educational program that provides curriculum-based content spanning seven main subjects including: Science, Math, English, Social Studies, Health, Arts & Music, and Technology.
