Customer Reviews
I just welcomed baby #5 and I needed something complete, open and go, and “easy” this is perfect for us! My kids are learning and it’s just right! I LOVE it! I wish there were dozens of more units. My only “complaint” is the nature studies so far seem fairly seasonal and since we started the first unit in January in the Midwest some of the nature crafts aren’t really super doable for us. I’m wondering if we will come to winter stuff in May or something ;)
We are using this to add on to what we are already using to create a complete Charlotte Mason feast. I really love the house keeping binder and the video for paper sloyd!!
I'm a mom of four, with infant twins a toddler and an 8 year old. We do Classical conversations and I've always had a draw to Charlotte Mason style. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out how to order my day to be able to fit in more subjects and content beyond just doing our math and LA workbooks. Especially with my twins my days and times need to be very well planned and ordered so I can understand how to get through what we need to get through.
I searched everywhere on you tube trying to understand and find help with how to schedule a day and what a Charlotte Mason day looks like etc.
I found these curriculums while searching for poetry tea time supplements on Etsy. Cherelles organization, schedules and beautiful content has given me the inspiration and insight I needed to see how to fit in so many things.
Plus I love that it's CM inspired and not so heavily CM rigid or ambleside based etc. it makes it easier for me who is a more ecclectic style as well to understand how to blend everything we are doing rather than feeling the divisions between the various parts of school we are doing. I added a few blocks to our day such as prayer at the start, we do our CC memory work in the scripture memory block, and on the last day of the week on the arts and crafts block we do our weekly review which is me covering the entire kitchen table with kraft paper and getting out crayons and etc while we review what we learned during the week.
If I was brand new to homeschooling and had nothing already bought or planned I would so just use cherelles curriculums bare bones and follow her plan.
I've been using her curriculum as a backbone to structure our days using the things we have. These have been such an answer to prayer and I wake up every day excited about our school day and ready to try to tackle getting through it all.
It takes us all day to do school because I can't just go straight through without interruption due to my babies. But the backbone of the blocks, the chunks of time, make it simple for my brain to be able to visualize each day's work and each weeks work.
These have saved me from over doing it and have set me up for better success !
Thank you so much ! I will be recommending these to my other mom friends.
CHERELLE!!!! I (CLAP) AM (CLAP) SO (CLAP) EXCITED!!!!!!!!!! lol
I'm on my laptop so I don't have access to my emoji's but you get the point LOL LOL
Thank you so much for including fitness and afterschool snacks this time around (in Volume 2)! I can't wait to get started TOMORROW!
Btw... testimony time! So your volume 1 and Christmas feasts were the FIRST curriculums I've been able to finish in the past 5 years!!!! (crying emoji) I know finishing isn't the goal BUT it truly brings a sense of pride, success, completion and encouragement when you can complete something that you set out to complete. I was able to do your curriculums along with my additional learning tote subjects like foreign language, journaling, extended bible and fitness, all while juggling a pre-k and toddler AND taking Fridays off. It's not even like the curriculum is watered down, you do such a great job at keeping learning simple enough to actually LEARN a topic without giving up or losing interest. I almost made it through the Thanksgiving curriculum feast but traveling gave us some conflicts. But the point is this, you made this curriculum feast so engaging, enjoyable, exciting and eclectic that it makes my teaching experience and my daughter's learning experience so much to look forward to. Thank you so much! I'm sticking with you as long as the Lord gives you vision to create!!
