Finally over to my poor and neglected blog. We have had major computer issues, but I think we are on the up and up. For those that are following the CPSIA and how it will effect all of us and many, many homeschool businesses, I wanted you to know specifics. Our dear friends at Hands and Hearts will loose their only source of income, like many other businesses. Places like Etsy.com, ebay, thrift stores, libraries (yes I said libraries) and any other thing that is "made for a child under the age of 12". You can read Hands And Hearts Newsletter here where they they announce the discontinuation of their History Kits. Also to read more into detail and specifics on this absolutely ridiculous and haneous law, you can go HERE. Make sure you take the time to take action and be proactive on this subject. Do you realize how this will not only effect online stuff, but most of your major, family owned homeschool businesses will NOT be allowed to be at the homeschool conferences and they will fold?? (because they cannot run the conferences without the vendors! I used to be one!) This is a snowball that will be an avalanche and this is why February 10th is being called "National Bankruptcy Day".

I've been worried about this one, too. The effects are so far reaching. I'm praying that changes are made. I don't think many quite realize how drastic it will be. Thanks for posting about it.
