Have you Ever Been to a REALLY Big Homeschool Convention? + Giveaway

This Giveaway is Now Closed. The winner is posted at the end of this post. Please remember to follow me here at the blog too to keep with updates.

 

This is a sponsored post and I am proud to be partnering with Great Homeschool Conventions this year because I LOVE their convention philosophy and because I love freebies.

The first time Kelley and I went to a convention alone in San Antonio, Texas, it was a mini vacation. No kids, no husband, no eating, no sleeping, okay…maybe just a little bit of that because we were ready to look shop ALL day.

I can tell you that an online event though helpful especially if you live in no-where-ville doesn’t even come close to attending an event in person if you get the chance to.

It’s almost like trying to spot another homeschool family when you are out during the day. Am  I on the only that does this? You know how sometimes you can tell that they just look like a homeschool family. Its not just because their kids are with them, but something about how they really enjoy being with each other. That is what attending a convention is like except that you have confirmation that everybody there feels the same way you do about homeschooling.

The loud talking, the passing out in aisles because of the sheer volume of curriculum and books that are waiting for me to put my hands on and the amount of curriculum gurus in one area is almost too much for me to take.

Great Homeschool Conventions has more key speakers and more curriculum in one spot than I have ever seen. They are HUGE.

You don’t want to miss out on going to one. It is well worth planning to attend and make it a family vacation. Only homeschoolers would plan their vacation around a homeschool convention.

But this is not about me today, it’s ALL about you.

So what do I have for you?
Great Homeschool Convention is giving away a family registration.  Here is what the giveaway includes:

1 Family Registration

One new thing on their website is that soon a convention will be coming to Texas! Talk about feeling like passing out, I am SO excited. It says not until 2015, but WOW, I can’t wait.
