I have been following your blog for a few months since I found it but have been unable to comment on blogger. I found this blogcatalog by chance and thought I would try it out. I too homeschool my son who has Down syndrome. It has been a year now and going well. He is 7. I am amazed at what you daughter can do, you are doing a wonderful job.

This site is an excellent source of information for any child. It has great educational program ideas and tips.
One of the many homeschooling blogs that I enjoy reading and following. This blog follows the daily struggles and triumphs of homeschooling a special needs child. At times there are tips and information that ALL homeschoolers can enjoy and learn from.
