Frugal Homeschooling

Here is another discovery that I have made that really made both my girls and I happy. I was talking with a friend the other day and they told me that McDonald’s and Taco Bell here in our town will reward children for A’s on their report cards. I thought that was a neat idea and then it got me thinking. Hey, my kids work on school and apply themselves too so why couldn’t they get a fun reward for their hard work?

So, I called up both Taco Bell and McDonald’s and asked about the incentive program. And I was told that no one had ever asked to bring in a homeschool report card but that they would honor it!!! They confirmed that they didn’t see how they couldn’t as those kids do the work too. This fact made me smile that most people have such a favorable view of homeschooling. I was thrilled and so were my girls!!

Now, I will have to update you once we actually get our food. I have printed out a report card form I found online and filled it in for both girls. I have them on the fridge for the next time we head up town for lunch. I am really anxious to see how it all goes!

Do you have any other frugal homeschooling tips? Know of any other places that offer rewards for good grades? I would love to include them in my next frugal homeschooling post!
