About me

Gender Female

Location Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom
Introduction Home educating family with two wonderful boys, ages 4 and 7. Education should be an adventure. I am an active reviewer with The Bookbag, Dooyoo, Ciao and Amazon. My views have also been published in the Observer, on the Aquila Website and the Oxford Project X website. I am always happy to review new books or educational materials. My specialities are : Home education, literacy and unique children's books, but we are willing to review any children's books or toys. Please be aware, sending a review copy guarantees only an honest review. I can not guarantee a positive one. Update: They grow quickly, the children are now 9 and 13. The youngest is still home educated, but the eldest is in Grammar School. Home education was a brilliant experience, but he is now much more intelligent than I am and with a focus on STEM subjects benefits from a grammar school education. Enjoying every minute left with the youngest at home, and whether home educated or not, we will never stop learning.
Interests Home education, home schooling, literacy, reading, children's science projects, children's books.
