Remember how I said the boys learn history from Odyssey? Well, this is our science! OK, not really our science, but close. My oldest son is a walking encyclopedia these days and any time I ask where he knows something from he replies...it was on Jonathan Park. Or better yet, when I try to teach him some new, cool thing he responds, I already know that! Yes, you guessed it, from Jonathan Park!
Here's why we love this series...it is based on Creation Science! That to me is worth its weight in gold. It is challenging to find science related materials that do not spout evolution out as a fact. No worries here. The episodes discuss what the Bible says in reference to all facts discussed, and when arguing against evolution are very straightforward in their explanations. Pair that with drama and adventure and you have a happy family!
And a bonus- when you visit the Jonathan Park website you can download homeschool study games, get ideas for activities tied to the different episodes, listen to the week's adventure and get a peek behind the scenes.
There are several series now, each containing 4 Cd's. You can buy them from Vision Forum, as well as other Jonathan Park merchandise.
While the boys in your family may be particularly enthralled by Jonathan and his escapades, these are worthy of whole family listening and been known to keep us busy on long road trips! Give them a try and let me know what you think.
