Question: Grammar curriculum recommendations for elementary age?

Although I've been at this a long time, I still have not found a grammar curriculum that suits our family. We are currently using one I picked up at a Homeschool Curriculum fair last spring. It is called Junior Analytical Grammar. I think if I had more personal knowledge about grammar rules, I would be fine with it (I'm a science and math type). However, it doesn't have enough to guide me (the teacher). Perhaps I just was never taught that during my own education, perhaps I have forgotten. My children read, write and speak very well, but I feel they would benefit from some "book learning" on this topic.

I've heard great things about Winston and Shurley Grammar. Do any of you homeschoolers have any feedback on those or other programs?
Thanks

Answer: I've just ordered Winston Grammar after using Easy Grammar for a year. Easy Grammar is good but what I like about Winston is that it's not simply a workbook approach and involves more than simply workbook time. If I had extra money I'd try Cozy Grammar which has video lectures that seem pretty engaging. For more information try homeschoolreviews.com and search for Winston Grammar.

I'd definately say try Winston. Most reviews I've read say that it's not only effective but also fun. It's not expensive either so if it doesn't work out you're not out much.
