Review of Time4Learning

I had great hopes for trying Time4Learning. I set up the kids accounts and honestly I did not think that the process of setting it up was very user friendly to begin with.  I had 3 accounts to set up - grades PreK, 4, and 7. I had the kids try it and while the preschooler enjoyed all of the activities the older two felt it was too babyish for them and they both had trouble with the website. We tried it on their kindles too and there were several errors that kept coming up.  I have heard other homeschoolers that rave about the program but to me it was more busy type work and not in depth enough for what I look for in homeschool. If its something your looking for them to be able to do to keep them busy while you work with the other children I think it would be nice for that but at the price I would not be able to justify it for what we were able to get out of it. So for this review, I personally thought it was good mainly for lower level kids programs. Thanks for the opportunity Time4Learning!
