Art in Your Homeschool

Is art education the unsolved mystery in your homeschool? It is for many moms—but it doesn’t have to be if you teach art the Charlotte Mason way!

Albert Einstein said, 

“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression.”

Charlotte Mason believed art should be a staple in every child’s education, and she explains a simple way to make it easy and effective when she writes:

“There must be knowledge … not the technical knowledge of how to produce, but some reverent knowledge of what has been produced ... children should learn pictures line by line, group by group, by reading not books (about art) but the pictures themselves.”

Making art a part of our children’s education hones their appreciation for the beauty and order God created in this world. It awakens centers in the brain that are often left neglected in today’s education. 

Ms. Mason felt there are two parts to art education: Appreciation and Expression.

The Heirloom Nature Journal

A Must Have for Nature Study!

The benefits of nature are so numerous for a child’s physical, academic, social, and spiritual development, it should be made a regular part of your homeschool week. Nature journaling increases the benefits of time outdoors—developing the skills of observation and increasing a child’s scientific wonder and understanding. Nature journaling lays a solid foundation for strong scientific thinking. 

As soon as he is able, as Charlotte Mason said, every child should keep a record of his nature discoveries in his own nature journal.

You will not find a better nature journal than the Heirloom Nature Journal.

The Art of Poetry

Charlotte Mason, always ahead of her time, encouraged us to ensure our children interact with poetry daily.

In this interesting and informative podcast, Jeannie Fulbright and special guest Shiela Catanzarite discuss the neuroscience that supports the power of poetry and the importance of poetry in a child's education.

Learn how poetry can enhance your child's language learning and discover ideas on how to easily incorporate this beautiful art form into your homeschool, making it a memorable, special, and joyous time for your family!

The Charlotte Mason

Heirloom Planner

What if you could preserve every special moment you spend with your children? What if you could treasure them not only in your heart but in words and pictures? What if you could look back on last year’s special days, or the moments that made you laugh? 

The truth is, we forget more than we remember. And we often focus on the sad things or our mistakes more than we do the good and precious moments we spent with our family. 

That’s why I created the Charlotte Mason Heirloom Planner. It's designed to give you guidance and keep you focused on what’s important, but also to become a storehouse, a treasury, of all that you did well.
