It's beginning to feel lot like . . . launch day!


We are so excited to finally release North American Birds Part 2! Like the first one we did five years ago, we focus on some of the most famous and common birds in Canada and the United States—intentionally drawing your family's attention to what they can name and identify in their own backyard! We have 20 new birds for you, with one nod to the OG . . . the American robin. The lessons are richer and more fleshed out: we have a daily devotional, vocabulary, step-by-step art, our renowned Seatwork Journals newly designed in booklet form (meaning no more coil to work around), stunning printed and cut flashcards, and a brand new Unit Planner! You can print a free sample on our site to get a feel for it, or you can buy it in digital or print now on our website!

It is election day here in the United States and no matter where you live, it isn't too late to snag this digital download! Our little school is going to be doing this unit today—both lessons—to have a better understanding of what is happening, why it matters, and to help us track the results as they come in! Throw an election party with us and let's gather to watch history in the making.

Last item on the agenda . . . let's have a live! We just have too much to talk about. I can't wait to show you our brand new unit planner, our new seatwork journals, some of our new merch that we're about to be making live, not to mention these flashcards. This is truthfully one of our most beautiful units to date (and I'm not just saying that). I'll be live at 2:30pm EST on Facebook and the app and hope to see you there!

Our community is going nuts over this new 2-day mini: one of the only resources that will not just teach about elections (from a Christian viewpoint), but this particular election and these particular candidates. With only a limited time before voting day, we don't want you to miss out. Check out some of the feedback we've been getting . . . I just read through it all, from ER-MS, and believe it’s well laid out and succinct for what can be a large topic to explain. I LOVE the devotionals that...

Hey Reader, I wanted to send out a quick e-mail to let you know about two new launches that are available on our site.
