• I will take a moment here to rave about how much we enjoy the activities in Homeschool in the Woods (HSITW) Industrial Revolution through the Great Depression. We have learned so much through these activities. We've discussed people and events that we would not have otherwise studied. Not only that, but I've discovered that many of the meals I enjoyed as a child were actually recipes from the Great Depression!... -Brandy Ferrell, Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood Blog
