Adventures in Learning

May 20th, 2010

As I am preparing to home school my children I have been in search of stores that provide the right tools for my children to get a proper education. Adventures in learning in Tyler Texas is not about getting text book and curriculum, this store has everything you need to make education fun.

I use to be a teacher at a pretty large daycare and I would always come to Adventures in learning to decorate my classroom. You can get great posters and educational wall decorations. It was always so fun to see the children’s faces when I would redecorate the classroom. I could find stuff for every lesson I would want to teach them. They have great stuff no matter what ages you teach.

After I had quit working at the daycare I started to have children. While my children are young I go there to get the most educational toys. They have fun going to the store with me to pick out a project to work on at home. The store has many different projects that you can take home and do with your children. You can build train tracks or doll houses.

My daughter’s favorite section of the store is the puppets. The store has all different puppets, large, small, animals, and people. Puppets are a fun why to tell your children stories and teach them lessons. My daughter loves to play with the puppets and make funny voices.

Adventures in Learning is a great place to start when you about to begin teaching. But it is also a great store to find toys, and projects for you and your family to enjoy together.

Marshalls

February 15th, 2010

5604 South Broadway Avenue
Tyler, TX 75703-4347
(903) 509-4130

Marshalls is somewhat similar to Ross but more on a pricey side. They are located at 5604 S. Broadway Ave., Tyler, Texas 75703. The quality of things are better so I guess it is worth more. I guess it depends on the buyer whether you are able or willing to pay more. When I was in school I loved this place and back then I thought it was so cheap until I discovered Ross and realized there are other places that cost less. You can find some great buys if you look around and go there when they have some great sales. A couple of weeks ago a friend I know and I went there with some other friends and sure found some really great stuff for $10 and others for more. She found Roxy name brand hoodies for $10, along with some shirts and purses that were a good deal. Anywhere you go, if you are not careful you can end up spending way more than you planned.

They have something for everyone in your household. They have clothes for juniors, adults, men’s and children. They carry shoes, purses and all other kinds of accessories. All your baby essentials are there. A great place for you to go get your special person a gift for the perfect occasion. They have a great selection on workout items if you are into that kind of stuff. Also things to decorate your house, your bedroom, kitchen, etc. Marshalls has Gucci shoes for $349.00 compared to $700.00 at other stores.

Still too expensive for me personally, but for others this is an excellent deal. Sun glasses ranging from $15 to $39 a pair. It always depends on the customer and what you are looking for. They also have a promotional night where you can win a $50 gift card if you just follow them on twitter. You answer the questions of the week for your chance to win. Sounds easy enough and you never know, take a chance and you could gain some money for yourself.

Marshalls is a nice place, very professional and you can find amazing stuff, name brand at low prices. Their reputation has been built on offering their customer good name brand merchandise at a better price than their competition. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, you are welcome to return it.
