Morning Forest School Is A Part Of The Homestead Homeschool Experience

Our 3-year-old granddaughter Audriella (Auddie) absolutely loves flowers. Every Homestead Homeschool curriculum theme unit that has anything to do with flowers or gardening are always her favorite.

The Homestead Homeschool Difference

The Homestead Homeschool Difference Have you spent countless frustrating hours on the internet looking for homeschool curriculum materials to use when teaching your children? I am willing to bet this year's harvest that you didn't find a single one designed entirely with homesteading and prepper families in mind.
