As parents, we often have a pretty good idea of what we don't want our children to learn. But what exactly should we give them instead?

Look Inside the Book

The authors of Repairing the Ruins, a group of experienced teachers and school administrators, faced this same question when they first embarked on the journey of education. They found a tried and true answer in classical Christian education. Here they explain what makes classical Christian education different from modern methods and why it offers a distinctly Christian alternative. Building upon this foundation, the authors provide parents with the "Whys and Hows" of the Trivium, tips on planning curriculum, wisdom in designing education to serve the heart as well as the mind, and advice on starting up schools.

For all who have ever wondered where to begin with their children's education, Repairing the Ruins comes alongside with words of comfort and direction. This collection is edited by Douglas Wilson, and includes essays from Tom Garfield, Chris Schlect, Douglas Jones, and Tom Spencer, as well as an introduction by Marlin Detweiler.

What People Are Saying:

"Repairing the Ruins offers a complete classical educators conference in a single book. The advice and inspiration gleaned from each essay encourages teachers and parents to confidently lead their students in the great classical conversations of Christendom. Math, Language, Science, and Logic, when studied well, provide Christians with the tools needed to repair our ruined culture while recovering the ability to love God with our whole minds." -Leigh Bortins, President of Classical Conversations

Great for small dog fetch
Style: 14" Length Sport Launcher
We love this for keeping our hands clean and saving our shoulders while playing fetch. Not sure why this size is so incredibly difficult to find (not in any stores in our area). It fits both the small rubber and tennis ball types. We have a 15lb rat terrier, and he loves it.

Ball is very small
Style: 14" Length Sport Launcher
It says it’s for small dogs up to 15LB. My doggie is 15 LB and this is way small. It’s a tiny ball. If your dog is 12LB to 20LB I would get the next size up to small.

Comes with a fabric covered ball
Style: 14" Length Sport Launcher
Disappointed in this. I have the large size and expected a smaller version of the rubber ball. Instead this came with a ball covered in fabric. The dogs I bought it for won't play with the ball. Maybe it is my fault for not reading more closely but why would Chuck-It even sell something so cheap and poorly made. Dogs can easily rip the fabric off the rubber (which is in two pieces). Very strangely made. Now I have buy a ball to use it.
