Thank You!

(5 Sterne)

Thank you to all who worked on the Home Education Project. You all did a fantastic job and helped provide access to a wonderful resource for parents who are wanting to know about Charlotte Mason’s philosophy.

excellent

(5 Sterne)

a "must read" book to be read yearly. So much better to listen once or twice to the whole before entering into a slower more detailed reading of the whole.

Thoughtful Insights

(5 Sterne)

Wonderful book if you are considering homeschooling your children. Great insights on how young children learn outside the school house setting.

love Miss Mason style education, this adds so much

Good overview of CM's theory. The audio is hard to listen to at points, but I appreciate the work others have done.
