Affiliate Disclosure

Current as of — 22 July 2026

How We Earn

• Some of the links on markerlane.com are affiliate links, including links into the Amazon Associates Program. If you click one and go on to buy, Maple & Marker may earn a commission from the retailer. You are never charged more for using our link than you would be otherwise.
• In practice, on a site about home education, handwriting practice and early learning, that mostly means links to workbooks, stationery and teaching supplies.

Maple & Marker is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

As an Amazon Associate, Maple & Marker earns from qualifying purchases.

How This Affects Coverage

Money does not move the editorial line. We refuse paid placement, we do not order recommendations by what they pay, and we are willing to be negative about a product that carries an affiliate link. Where a recommendation rests on research rather than personal testing, we say so plainly.

We publish this in accordance with the FTC’s endorsement guidelines at 16 CFR Part 255, which require material connections to be disclosed clearly.
