"Thanks for all you do!  In addition to saving us time (and money!), your reviews have helped me have good discussions with my son about how important it is to make choices that reflect our values." - Laura, Austin, Texas

 

"This is by far the best website I have found for Christian schools to see the content of books without having to read them all.  Keep up the good work!" - Gloria, Savannah Christian Preparatory School

 

"I was able to use the service to determine if what my daughter is reading is appropriate.  It turns out that there are a few touchy subjects that I need to discuss with her about the book she's reading now.  The site is a huge blessing for today's busy parents."  - Michelle, San Antonio, Texas

 

"Discovery Journey helps me be a better parent.  Knowing what my children are reading and viewing affords me an opportunity to have more open communication with them." - Peggy - Atlanta, Georgia

 

"Your commitment to good character is demonstrated first hand in your prompt and thorough response." - Natasha - Naperville, Illinois

 

"Your service is outstanding." - Amy - Lizella, Georgia

Learning Activities

One of the things that makes Discovery Journey unique are the learning activities that we coordinate with each book and movie that we review.  These include learning activities that you can do with your child at home as well as trips that you can take as an entire family.  We hope these activities make the book come alive for your child and start the process of creating that passion for reading and learning.  Some of our activities include:

A covered wagon trip for the family to bring to life the book Little House in Brookfield

Recipe and directions for making salt water taffy to have fun with a wonderful book, The Wedding Planner's Daughter

A kit to cut out and build a model of A Full-Color Model of Caernarvon Castle in Wales while reading The Book of Three (Chronicles of Prydain)

Learn about the Great Depression by perusing the New Deal Network in order to bring to life the book Year Down Yonder

If your child enjoys horses, they will probably enjoy All Their Names Were Courage about the horses of the generals of the civil war.  After reading the story, drop by the National Civil War Museum in Harrisburg Pennsylvania to see their special exhibit on children during the civil war.  Can't travel to see it?  You can visit online!

Would your child love to go to Space Camp after being inspired by watching Thunderbirds

These are just a few examples.  Please browse through our books and movies and find the perfect book and experience for your child and family!
