- I just wanted to let you know that I recently purchased the WWII Time travelers lapbook set and couldn't be more delighted! It will blend so perfectly with our Tapestry of Grace Studies this year. Thank you for making a product that educates with beauty! - Kymberly Arana
- Time Travelers is a series of CD unit studies, with printable projects for various time periods. The philosophy is that hands-on history is a better teaching method, as well as lots more fun and memorable. I was given the America in World War II CD to review. This is a fully organized, easy to navigate CD with attractive lettering and graphics. There are plenty of linkable icons, and multiple ways to get where you want to go. No fear of getting lost here!... Kathy Gelzer, The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine, LLC, January, 2012
- And, now... after 16 weeks... we have finally finished our official WWII Unit Study. As our WWII history buff, Stephen requested this special project after completing the Industrial Revolution through the Great Depression. As we closed out the school year, he even told me that "if we don't finish the WWII projects before summer, that's okay. Because I want to do the WWII study in my spare time."... - Brandy Ferrell, Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood Blog
