You are wonderful - thanks for this. I'd rep you, too, but I'm out of reps for the day.

My boys (12 and 14) and I are, as I type, listening to those same Science Songs. I was going to post about them recently but kept forgetting. I LOVE those songs. This morning, the 6yo was singing the kinetic-potential energy song.

Ourlosbanos' other wonderful things include a fabulous free Am. History curriculum, similar to Winter Promise.
Just thought I'd plug it!
