Today I'd like to share a few write-ups on BFB curriculum from parents just like you! We love reading blog entries written by other home schooling parents who use BFB as we take their feedback into consideration when we're writing and/or revising our study guides.
Here are links to a few blogs from parents who use BFB and have shared some experiences.
"Girls Have Rights Too!" This is a fun entry about a girl who really connected with Abigail Adams in her study using our Early American and World History for junior high.
At "Terrie's Treasures from Above" you can see wonderful examples of the notebooking activities that are a part of our Early American History program for K-3.
And a home school dad shares his thoughts on our Early American History for K-3 at "Dwelling Among the Tents".
Further reviews can be read here. Please note that some of the reviews are referring to older editions of the study guides and so some content may no longer be relevant.
And speaking of updated study guides, we have been getting more and more questions as to what guides have been revised. For those of you who are wondering here is the complete list:

Thanks for all the info. I am a bit confused about the California and Western Expansion guides. Is the California study also revised? It is colored and is different than the old one. Also, the Western Expansion is not colored but is it still a revised edition? Just wondering.
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy! Thanks for your comment. You're right it was the History of California that was revised. Way to be on top of it! I've revised the entry to reflect the correction. Sorry about the confusion. The Western Expansion is still black and white and has not be updated from when it was first published a couple of years ago. It's up-to-date but has not been switched over to the full-color format.
DeleteThank you again!
