"I have been homeschooling for 11 years and have taken my boys to fine arts academies and educational co-ops. Classical Conversations is THE BEST I’ve ever seen for helping moms to help their children learn great history, science, English grammar, math and geography! Our children will also do an art project and a science experiment EVERY week! So they get the OOOH factor with other boys and girls (and you don't have to prepare or clean it up)! The cost for what you get is so small: $13 per week per child with a one-time $50 registration fee and a $50 supply fee (per year). The program runs for 12 more weeks. The instructional time is 9:30 to 12:30 with lunch and play time for an hour after." --- Cindy Race

The following video was not produced by Classical Conversations Corporate, but by the local CC group in Memphis, TN. I think it gives a pretty good idea of what the classes are like and what you can expect:
