Rainbow Resource Review and Giveaway ***CLOSED***

If you’ve been homeschooling for very long, chances are you’ve heard of Rainbow Resource, definitely the one-stop spot for all your homeschooling needs. In business since 1989, Rainbow Resource is run by a homeschooling family that was inspired to create a more affordable way for homeschooling families to get the educational materials they need. We have ordered several homeschooling and preschool items from Rainbow Resource including our Bob Jone's Bible Truths curriculum and Science Through Children's Literature (awesome book!), and are always completely satisfied with the quality of products, their low prices, the quick delivery, and terrific customer service. Rainbow Resource offers over 40,000 products, their 1300 page printed catalog FREE (also available for download), free shipping on orders of $150 or more (your total can add up fast when you’re ordering curriculum for the year!), and experienced homeschool consultants are available to answer any questions you have.

About the Rainbow Resource catalog and website (from their website):

"Although some catalogs are more colorful, we have focused on providing detailed descriptions of our products so that you may make an informed decision about which ones will work best for you. Our reviews are written by our family members and employees of our company. Even though our catalog is free for the asking, you will find it to be "an education in itself," containing some of the best information available anywhere on educational products. Similar products are grouped together for easier comparison and evaluation. Our website provides added benefits: color images of our products, images of the item's contents, and a table of contents where appropriate. Search techniques such as selection of grade level, author, publisher, and words in the title or key words can be quite helpful. Also, a drilldown feature by subject and topic enables you to find and compare similar products."

Every year when my Rainbow Resource catalog comes in the mail, I am so excited. It’s my favorite resource for finding new homeschooling products. It is literally the size of a phone book, with everything you could possibly ever need or want for your preschooler or homeschooling student! If you are planning on homeschooling your preschooler or school aged children, or would just like to find some good educational materials for home to reinforce what your child is learning at school, Rainbow Resource is just the place to find what you need. Rainbow Resource is backed by a energetic thumbs up from My Four Monkeys!

Buy It: You can visit http://rainbowresource.com to browse and shop their vast selection of educational products.

I ADOREEEEEEE Rainbow Resource, I tell everyone to shop there! In fact I just recieved an $150+ order from them last week! My wishlist there is a mile long (seriously!) But if I had to pick one I'd probably say the "Animal Crack-ups" toy, I ALWAYS add it to my order, but then it always get's taken off for a more important item. Then probably some music for our new lapharp, and some dinosaur toys for my son. Last year I did ALL my for the kids shopping with them for Christmas, and I will be this year too!

Alicia said...
