100 Educational Links

Hello all! Just thought I'd post this cool list of homeschool-related sites. Some are paid services, but many are free. I know that some people who may be reading this is wondering why I don't have any pictures posted of myself and my family, and my only answer is.... it really took me a while to warm up to the whole idea of blogging, so I'll just take it in baby steps for now, bear with me as I adjust my comfort zone. Now, as promised, here's a list of 100 Top Homeschool related sites (ok...there might only be 99 ). Side note: if some of the links don't work, check to make sure there aren't any extra spaces in the address. For some reason, sometimes when I copy and paste, the program inserts extra spaces.

Some of these links may be posted in my useful homeschool links section, but many are not. To see additional homeschool links, please see the Useful Homeschool Links section of this blog.
