I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.
If you are looking for well-designed, downloadable, printable curriculum resources for unit studies, hands-on projects, geography, notebooking, lapbooking, history and more, Home School in the Woods is a long-time homeschooler favorite.
I was introduced to Home School in the Woods through the Homeschool Review Crew some years ago and have since come to know and appreciate many of their awesome - and popular - homeschool products, including their Maps Combo-Pak (US & World Maps), which we've recently had the opportunity to review.

Maps Combo-Pak (US & World Maps) truly is jam-packed with maps and notebooking pages that are easy to access and print and can be useful for any grade K-12. The resource is compatible with MAc and PC and is one I'd recommend getting sooner rather than later if you are thinking about getting it, because with all the variety of maps and notebooking pages included, it is a resource any educator can use again and again throughout the years in conjunction with other curriculum or as stand alone printables and studies.

Like all Home School in the Woods products, the Maps Combo-Pak (US & World Maps) is family-friendly and flexible. All ages can use it and its reproducible for multiple students in one family. There is no need to use it "cover to cover", but rather, to pick and choose what you like and let it be a blessing to you and yours again and again as you study history and geography or do special projects.
Here, since it is summer time and we are in low-key mode, I have printed sheets to use with my 11, 14, and 15 year olds between other activities - and even at one of our campouts...
I have also begun making Geography binders to use with the kids in the coming year, because, as I did some things which I thought would be "review" for them, I realized we actually need to do some re-learning.
you know that old saying, "If you don't use it, you lose it." Despite several years of Geography Club meet ups when my children were young and various times of focus on geography since, it seems my children have forgotten some basic geography.
So, this resource is what we are using to help them relearn such basics.
I am glad to have it and recommend it to others.
I also suggest that if you are looking for anything in the way of history, timelining, notebooking, and geography, you look at what other resources Home School in the Woods has to offer.
