As many of you know, we’re homeschooling now. While we love it, doing workbooks all day can get super old. I heard about Mysteries in Time and got super excited. To be able to learn about a specific time period in history is very exciting. My kids and I were very excited when the boxes came! These subsciption boxes take you and your kids back in time. They come in two different ways – the Classic Pack or the Bumper Box. The Bumper Box comes with a few more goodies!
About Mysteries in Time
