Some of my favorite online shops are:
- Christianbooks.com - books, videos, CDs, Christian jewelry and T's
- Library and Educational Services - great prices on Adventures in Odyssey, Radio Theater, Jonathan Park CDs, bibles, devotionals, books, etc
Don't forget homeschool businesses when shopping for Christmas gifts. Rather than trendy fads from the discount store toy aisle, buy enduring, educational items with real play value!
- Home Science Tools - science kits, butterfly garden, binoculars, telescope, weather station, magnets, robot kits, K'nex, books
- Miller Pads and Paper - paint sets, flesh tone colored pencils,watercolor pencils, scrapbooking paper, art kits, clay, etc.
- Vision Forum - wooden pop gun, leather cowboy hat, spy kit, replica swords, tri-corner hat, Continental soldier's drum, toy knights and castle, wicker doll carriage, silver tea set, Beautiful Girlhood dolls, play tepee
- Keepers of the Faith - kits and books for learning skills such as sewing, cake decorating, quilling, woodburning, leatherworking, latchhooking, etc.
- Great Homeschool T shirts - you guessed it! homeschool t shirts and sweats and tote bags
- Hands & Hearts - Aristoplay games, Lauri puzzles, hands-on history kits, Color & Learn coloring books
You can also support worthy causes:
- AHOPE for Children - purchase tshirts, hoodies, silver jewelry, coffee,& cards and help care for orphans with HIV in Ethiopia

Funny, I am placing my first order this week, too. D survived another round of cuts - the company is now down to just over 250 employees (out of almost 1500 a year and half ago!). He's the only one left to run his 3 neighborhoods so he will be working long, long hours but we are thankful for the job!! So today I am placing our first (and probably biggest) order - with Vision Forum. They have free shipping and their toys and books are excellent quality in all respects, and I feel good that my money is going to support a good ministry, rather than a company that might be supporting things to which we are opposed. I know you did an article or speech sometime in the past that helped me realize this and I can't thank you enough! Do you have any good suggestions for toys/games that stand the test of time? I think you have done a great job over the years getting lasting things, not just fads and would like your suggestions!
Hope you all have a fabulous weekend with the family together!

JULY!? I was finished by the end of May! I love finding a good sale all year long and this year the sales almost found me. :) ~S
I love the special basket idea. I have one or two baseball lovers in my family. Thanks for "spreading the wealth" around in a way that benefits your sisters in Christ who are trying to be frugal and wise shoppers.
God bless,

That’s great..! I always prefer Christmas stuff through online shopping. I can't even imagine Christmas w/o online shopping.
