Today’s sluggish economy generates high-demand for our consumer education and budgeting products, which provide educators with the tools they need to instill in their students responsible money-management skills. The housewares section offers a complete selection of name-brand products, including traditional favorites and the latest in technology. There is also an entire section devoted to sewing machines and supplies, crafts, and notions, along with teacher-favorite sewing kits from both To-Sew® and Haan Crafts®. This catalog includes products to help address healthy living, job training, and contemporary issues facing a diverse range of students.

Nasco’s goal is to offer products to schools and community education programs that will make teaching more effective and meaningful for today’s students by emphasizing the life skills needed for independent living and survival — personal development, family relationships, consumer economics, housing, and decision making.
