    We love this nature study program! I use it for all four of my children, ages four to sixteen! It makes it so simple to study nature together and get outside and enjoy nature while we learn. I love that we can pick and choose what we do based on our interests or use the monthly calendar for new ideas.

    I love any chance to get my teen outside! We adapted some of the nature studies to fit our area (Rocky Mountains) and enjoyed the opportunity to discover, learn, and discuss what was going on around us together. Also it was fun for my teen to try out a photography elective while studying nature. We learned so much by just walking the mile loop behind our house every afternoon and throughout the different seasons.

    Who knew that Nature Study curriculum would offer so much quality time. Which feels like it grows shorter as they get older. I highly recommend this membership. There is always something to find and the calendar offers great prompts!!

    If you're looking for a Charlotte Mason inspired science curriculum, Homeschool Nature Study is it! Homeschool Nature Study carries an endless amount of learning and builds a foundation of knowledge by integrating Anna Comstock's lovely book, The Handbook of Nature Study. Because of the essence of nature, there is so much to discover and unwrap. Homeschool Nature Study makes exploring easy and learning enjoyable by including a Calendar and focused Outdoor Hour Challenges/Ideas. The videos, links for further discovery, printables, and notebook pages encourage a gentle way of learning. Homeschool Nature Study also involves follow-up activities for each lesson, including advanced studies for seasoned learners. This has been a wonderful way to meet the wide array of learners and learning styles in our home. We love the memories we create while using this curriculum and spending time outdoors!
    I also love the Outdoor Mom series. Each month contains a beautifully written post that stirs a mother's heart to slow down. I personally love the prompts and ideas that are designed to quiet our souls and rest.

    Nature study was always a little intimidating to me. I didn't even know where to start. The Handbook of Nature Study sat on our bookshelf gathering dust because it was just too daunting to look at. Then we started the Homeschool Nature Study curriculum and it changed how we approached nature study. The short lessons and activity prompts made it so easy to integrate nature studies into our daily lessons. My kids have become so interested in the natural world around us and are so eager to learn about new things we encounter in our time outdoors.

    When I first began homeschooling nature study wasn't even on my radar. As I began finding my homeschool philosophy, I was intrigued, but it felt so overwhelming. The past couple of years, we've made it a priority. I love how nature study naturally lends itself to a more child-led learning approach. I also appreciate how nature study brings our family together to learn, myself included.
    I love the prompts/activities that this curriculum provides. It has been an open-and-go style, that has been easy on me as the teacher. My kids range in ages 13-4 and they have all enjoyed what we are learning. I highly recommend this to families with all ages and stages!!!
