      This curriculum is more than I could have even imagined! Its so beautiful and well thought out! We start our school year on September 1st, so i am still reading theoigh everything and setting up, but i am in love woth this curriculum!

      I will absolutely be back for Kindergarten curriculum! If our son continues to learn with this style (I think he will.. I know my son and he does so well with hands on and play!) we will be back for the grade school as well!

      Exactly as discribed, could not ask for better art/images realistic watercolour style gives both realism and softness

      We started Kindergarten at Home this month and it has been a delight!! We're starting How Wee Read and How Wee Write next week, and I am very excited. I think they're also going to be a hit!! You have laid out everything very simply while keeping things fun! You can really see all the love and care you put into your products!!

      My little one loves How Wee Learn. All their resources are fun and creative, making school feel like playtime! They are very user-friendly and have great book recommendations!

      I have been using the How Wee Learn Toddler and Preschool Curriculums with my child and we both really love it. Everything is easy to follow and flexible, to work in with our life. The resources are beautiful, wholesome and just a delight to work with. We have also thoroughly enjoyed building up a play activities library through the community group, where the activities each month have been greatly enjoyed by both of us. I look forward to making our way through the How Wee Learn to Read program along with unit studies and grade school when the time comes!

      I’ve really enjoyed the curriculum of How Wee Learn! It’s straight forward and streamlined so you get everything you need without a bunch of unnecessary fluff. It is also easy to do with your child- the instructions are really clear. The illustrations are beautiful, and there are a lot of different activities to do. I also love that it isn’t religious based which is hard to find in a private curriculum that is still wholesome.

      How Wee Learn is by far the easiest, most comprehensive, and fun curriculum I have found. My girls look forward to learning about all the things they enjoy.

      I love the How Wee Learn programs! Every unit, bundle, and curriculum I've purchased so far has been wonderful. They are all filled with activities, conversation starters, games, and resources that help guide learning in a fun and *playful* way!

      We started with this program on the ground floor & have enjoyed the new activities each month. I have a 2, 4 & 7 year old & I love that these activities have things that they are each able to do now & will also have room for growing & exploring each activity in a new way the next time I bring it out! This is a great resource that has so much learning incorporated, yet still feels like “just playtime” for the kids. If you are on the fence, I highly recommend this membership! Sarah, you have built a great collection of wonderful resources! Thank you!

      I am completely in love! I love the daily organization, and I even moreso love how it lays out the skills being worked on each day. That part honestly sold me because it felt like everything I had been searching for on Pinterest was already laid out each week. The activities are so simple and yet I wouldn't have thought to do so many of them. The pictures are beautiful, everything is laid out incredibly well, and I've been so excited checking out the themes each month, ordering our library books and gathering the few supplies for a new month of learning. We're heading into Week 5 and combining it with the Quiet Time Club program, and it has been so much fun! I could go on and on, but honestly, just wanted to say thank you for making this actually seem doable for us and bringing a lot of peace into the idea of homeschool in our home despite the circus that it is right now!

      There’s so many preschool and toddler packs you can buy online, but they’re so loud and busy in their style. I love the more Waldorf feel of this package. It’s artistic and soft, while retaining the important realistic details important for exploration and learning. A++++ on the style!!! I love it!

      It's been a few months since I ordered Play into Kindergarten Readiness and my son has improved drastically! His confidence is back, when we take walks he automatically looks for shapes and numbers, setting the table is his favorite and his scissor skills are unbelievable lol. I am so thankful for your courses, the idea that I have a plan for him everyday is just comforting. I will start Kindergarten at Home in a few months when he has mastered Play into Kindergarten Readiness. I am just thrilled that he is motivated again to learn, even though he doesn't know he is learning, it's brilliant!

      I’m a second year homeschooling mom, first time creating a curriculum on my own. We are LOVING the family units. We are using them for our 1st, 4th, and 6th graders, and our 4 year old is tagging along. They are just so well put together: they’re engaging, fun, and long enough to gain great information but short enough to keep interest at all levels. I love the differentiation for the different grade levels of our kids, too. It’s empowering to see them recognize they all might be learning the same material, but they have different levels of understanding to go along with the knowledge.

      I just wanted to let you know how much my kids are enjoying the math. We do it at what we call our circle time in the morning, and I call the math lessons the "story-activity" which has a more pleasant sound to my son than "math" (he doesn't love math!). They are enjoying it so much that we usually do at least two pages every morning. My son said tonight, "I LOVE the story-activity at circle time!" He's 6 and heading into grade two in the fall. We have worked on his math all year but it's been a challenge for me to find a way of making it feel creative, imaginative and fun. This fits the bill for us perfectly.
