Thank you so much for sharing Temu. I’m always so skeptical because I’ve been burned a few times in the past. But I am very impressed with everything I have ordered. So far nothing has arrived damaged or broken. Everything has been as described. I have had to put myself on a strict $15 a paycheck budget because I am finding so many wonderful and useful items. Caught one of your Temu unpacking videos right before this past Christmas. Yep, ordered a whole bunch for stocking stuffers. Thank you so very much. I recommend Temu to anyone who will listen to me.
You got some great learning and fun ways to help you boys enjoy while learning ! I love the portable microscope and I think the boys will too! God bless ❤️🙏🙋🏻
Great items. Homeschooling supplies is awesome. When I homeschool there was not lot offer so it was hard but we survived. The portable microscope when dad back to walking could take boys in woods and explore things. Great video.
I am really glad to see you demonstrate home schooling. I want you to know that one of the things I invested in as a teacher was a laminating machine. You can then print out colorful "sheets" laminate them and use the dry erase markers you got to work them. You can level the games in difficulty and have them work their way through the difficulty levels. Teachers used to come into my classroom and see what I was doing all the time. Each student also had a color of their picking so we could color code their baskets with their tasks for the day depending on their working level. Inside the basket they had tasks to complete for reading, writing, math, science, and history each day. Once you set it all up, all you have to do is fill the baskets each day. I spent about 2 days each month setting up the tasks for the next month by printing them off, laminating them, cutting out what needed to be cut out and then putting them in levels. I would have them work on levels they already have been taught independently and taught new lessons one on one. I also had stations set up so they could each work on a station. Examples: library station, art station, puzzle station, computer station, music station, books on CD station, independent work station (tasks already taught were here) exercise stations (step machine or stationary bike) and a one on one station with me to learn new tasks. Once the task with me had been learned it then moved to the independent station for them to show me they could do it on their own. This system worked for students who learned best by one on one attention. I even went so far as to make each student a schedule posted on the wall with each station on it and their rotation for the day. They went to their schedule picked up the station indicator, moved it over on the board and then went to the station. We repeated this every 20 minutes all day long. The schedule helped them know what station was coming up next on their schedule. My students LOVED it and almost never had any behavior problems.
You can’t recycle laminated sheets and for most homeschoolers the cost of laminating one sheet is more than printing two or three sheets several years apart.
@@solidflyer286 I don't think I fully explained. If I was teaching a skill that needed "drills" addition, subtraction, multiplication, division facts. I would print a colorful set of them out, laminate them, and have my students complete a different one each day rotating the set through so they get all of the sheets until they were 100% on all sheets. This prevented me from having to print out a sheet every day. I hope that explains the system I had.
I just got a Temu jewelry order in and all of it is just beautiful! Mind you, the rings were about $1 so they’re not something you can put on and wear daily and do dishes and shower in them etc but they’re so cute!!!!! I have both sides of my nose pierced and got literally 25 nose rings for $3!!!!!❤
You're killing me. First with the Diamond Dotz now color pencils, pens and markers. I did check them out after you posted about the Diamond Dotz, but I haven't taken the plunge yet. I'm an empty nester that does penpaling, so I'm always looking for great pens, pencils, markers, and sharpeners. Love your videos. I was wondering if you could show us some of your Diamond Dotz and other crafts y'all do
I just love you and your family and this might be an awful thing to say but Breden is my favorite. There’s just something about him and those facial expressions he makes always makes me laugh.
That is awesome! I was just thinking that the penmanship tools would be great even for stroke victims in learning how to write again! (Spoken by someone who knows)
I've always said that people act like they can't do fractions until you talk about pizza or money. I thought Tom Hank's explanation in Big about Basketball game quarters was a good example of fractions, too.
those magic books with pen and ink, im so mad about lol I was suckered into buying them for my now 5yr old (got when she was 3) but it was like $36 from the original site and here temu comes at like $6!
Have you always homeschooled your kids? I’m just curious…I use to think I’d love to be a stay at home mom and homeschool but it was never an option as I had to work full time and commute..now I’m a retired nana with time to do this for my grandsons who attend public school ( grades 4 and 6) ..however during the lockdown period I tried just the schooling for over a year and a half with them and realized I’m not cut out to do it…kudos to you all that can be diligent and have that teaching ability in yourselves.
Do your kids have to take exams for home school? Just wondered because I work at a place that has a giant conference room and for the last 2 weeks we’ve had VA homeschool exams going on. There was around 100 kids that came for exams.
We had to in NC, but we never did it in a group, although there were various types of testing that you could do. We were required to keep the results on file for a year. I always kept mine just in case.
@@merediths9667 Arkansas is the same way! We have 100% freedom. No exams, can teach whatever we want, no attendance records. I keep some work and attendance just incase but not required!
Depends on your state homeschooling laws. In Texas, your family IS its very own tiny private school when you homeschool, so you don't have anything to do with the state. Only public school students have to do the state testing. Keep in mind that public school on line is NOT homeschooling, so those students who do any form of public school (like state funded Connections Academy, K12, etc.) must abide by the oppressive state regulations.
@@mckenziemason8061 same here! I’m an ex public school worker so I do keep some stuff because it’s engrained in me 😉 but yes it’s amazing to have freedom of not having to do all the things!
I know you know this... but I was SHOCKED lol. Or I haven't been paying attention which is probably closer to the truth. The new job is great but I am way behind on my videos! Ryder standing directly behind you? And I can see the top of his head? They are growing up too fast!! Signed your almost adopted Great-Auntie M in Canada - I like the home schooling videos because I use the lunch ones to help me bring lunch to work and not buy it and I am a nerd that thinks school supplies are fun and cool. ❤
Alot of those things can be purchased at the dollar store.... I know how frugal you are and I know you realize that the prices are not great. One reason I really like watching you is because you are honest with everything you do... that's why I'm surprised you are doing this video.
Frugal isn't just the "cheapest" but rather best "value." Just because something can be found at the Dollar Tree, doesn't make the Dollar Tree the best value.
@@jennyalrahbi16 ummm, no it's not the same product if the quality is different or the quantity is different. Do you have two comparison products directly in hand to make such bold and accusatory statements as to Brooke "realizing" her reviewed products "prices aren't great"? She states in the video the quality matters to her and she's taking that into her review. She even stated why she rated it as such, and why that product was preferred over similar products that can be found at a lower price. So I stand by my statement that earned your "C'mon" response: Just because something can be found at the Dollar Tree, doesn't make the Dollar Tree the best value.

I loved Homeschooling. Now She is graduating from College this year. So proud of her. She says she misses all the homeschool years.
I would love to see more homeschooling videos! I love getting new ideas to incorporate in our homeschooling.

You are a homeschool momma?🤩
Just one more reason to love you!
Homeschooling our boys to graduation was the best educational decision ever.❤
Loved the video 😘👍🏻💕

Thanks for sharing, Brooke! I love everything I have received from Temu. Have a great day and be blessed always! xoxo
I can't believe all the things they have its amazing and i love the prices!!!! Thanks for recommending Temu
Your sons are such nice guys. I love your saying, be kind.
I love those little books with the invisible ink pens. My daughter six now was using these at 4yrs old. Great product
Thank you so much

That is awesome! I was just thinking that the penmanship tools would be great even for stroke victims in learning how to write again! (Spoken by someone who knows)
I would have loved to have these things when the kids were little just to help them with extra practice for school
Ky just melted my heart with his excitement over the math game!
I love Temu
We had a pizza game to teach fractions. My kids loved it just because it was PIZZA!!
I've always said that people act like they can't do fractions until you talk about pizza or money. I thought Tom Hank's explanation in Big about Basketball game quarters was a good example of fractions, too.
Hi Brooke hope I spelled it ok. I have a venison loin any ideas what to do with it ???
I bought a few pre kindergarten stuff for my great niece (3 years old) so she can start learning more.
More homeschool videos! :)
I got 1 of those portable 🔬 for my son for Christmas and it was a fail sadly. But nice haul girl
I just noticed at the end where all three boys were next to each other, that Ryder is growing like a weed!
those magic books with pen and ink, im so mad about lol I was suckered into buying them for my now 5yr old (got when she was 3) but it was like $36 from the original site and here temu comes at like $6!
Homeschool mom here also!
Awesome
I came across temu a day before you did your review. I thought meh it's a scam. But I'll have to try it now.
Good Morning Beautiful Friend!!!!! Have a great day!
Howdy! 🥰👍😎
I was wondering if the Bear hooded blanket one of your kids was using in a video is from Temu. I want to some like that. So cute.
Sam’s club lol

Depends on the state. In Texas we do not. Texas is extremely relaxed in homeschooling. It’s great!

I was really unhappy with our TEMU products.
My 20-something neighbor was too ... the products weren't any better than the local dollar store AND the customer service is ROTTEN ...
Want to ask you if you really feel that Temu is ok? I trust your opinion.
