    Dana is the one with the audiobooks. I still have issues with them, when we try to listen at all my mind wanders off, so I'm sure Garretts would too.

    We have car schooled alot for the past three years as we drive two days a week several hours each way.
    My son who is 6 currently uses
    Reader Rabbit, Jumpstart Kindergarten (though they have jumpstart games for up to 6th grade), spongebob typing, Quixel's spanish adventure, Magic school bus software for science
    We also have a leap pad and a leapster that he used, each had various learning opportunities.

    My daughter who was in 6th grade last year used
    Math- Timez attack free download at http://www.bigbrainz.com/Download.html or Math Blaster
    or she would play brain age on her ds Sudoku or do the math lesson
    She also would play jumpstart 6th grade and Clue finders 6th grade which had a variety of different games that focused on various things.
    For reading comprehension she played Midnight rescue- this is a very old game but worked fine on our laptop which has XP
    She had spelling challenge on her DS
    Social Studies/History- Carmen Sandiego (Chase through time and where in the world)
    Encarta Kids has a spelling bee as well
    Spanish- we bought an inexpensive program at walmart like learn spanish now.
    Typing- Spongebob Typing
