you didn't ask but I'm telling you anyway ...

Hey ,


This week, my family will be arriving in our winter location. But of course, I’d never forget to email you. After all, emailing you is all about

  • Us getting to know each other better
  • Me helping you with gameschooling

So here’s me doing both right now:

First, I’d like to share 3 things about my hometown that I think are pretty interesting. Let me know if your town is similar.

  1. Even though I haven't lived there in over 20 years, and haven't been back in over 5, I still consider Portland (OR) my hometown.
  2. Powell's Books is an absolutely ginormous used bookstore, and probably one of my favorite places on earth!
  3. The public transportation is truly incredible, with buses, MAX (last I was there, they were up to 3 different lines!), and the fare-free zone in the middle of downtown.


And second, I’d like to share 3 ways I can help you with gameschooling. Feel free to click over to the links for more details and to see if they’re the right fit for you. Or simply hit reply and we can chat about it.

  1. My roundup posts can help you compare several games of a kind. Check out the sidebar of any page for links to history games, science games, video games, games that don't require reading, and more! All my most helpful posts are linked in that sidebar.
  2. Individual game reviews give you a better look inside each game with pictures, analysis of who the game might be best for, specific elements that might make the game challenging for your family, and (usually) a play-through!
  3. Products to help your homeschooling be more fun for all involved. Start with my freebies, check out games (most are just $5!), and maybe take a look at a unit study. (If you use code HQFALL25, you'll get half off any unit study, making them only $7.50!) All of my unit studies incorporate several games, so if you think you might like my games, the unit studies are the best way to get them.


Until next time,

Happy Gaming!
