Homeschool Hidden Gems

A range of our favourite Home Education resources from across all our collections, which have been tried and tested in a homeschool setting.

As homeschoolers know - learning can happen anywhere, and with anything - Puzzles, Toys, Science Kits, Games, Jigsaws, Books, Early Childhood Products, Teaching Resources - homeschool families use all these items daily in a holistic approach to education.

If you can't find what you're looking for here, we sell plenty of other teaching resources which can be found if you browse through our webstore menu.

Think of this collection as a first stop for home education inspiration. These are our handpicked choices. But as you can probably imagine - everything here at Brain Spice can be used for educational purposes in a homeschool setting!

A special mention about some items which are missing from this collection (although we do recommend them, but including them would have made this collection too large to be browsed in a productive way): Model Building Kits (which can be used for Design & Technology), Craft and Creative items (great for covering the Arts), expansions to some kits and games (such as Gravitax), Orchard Toys has a huge range of educational games, and we have bookshelves full of Teaching Resource books and Classroom Tools & Aids as well. Although not included in this collection, if you click those links it will take you to the full ranges of those fabulous collections too.
