A wonderful nature study guide/book
I just ran across this resource and I'm thinking I will go with it. I need so much help in this area of homeschooling and this seems to fit the bill perfectly. Here is a brief description.
This one-year curriculum for elementary ages has everything you need to give your child a Charlotte Mason style education in science and nature study. Daily lessons build upon each week's detailed nature story from Aunt Bessie, who shares with her niece and nephew all about the marvels of God's creation. Learn about insects, birds, butterflies and moths, worms, wasps, and all sorts of creatures through the fun, short lessons, which vary from day to day, giving your child the variety of hands-on lessons, read alouds, researching, writing, coloring, nature sketching, and more! Consumable. 180 daily lessons for any child who is reading on his own, up through about 6th grade level. Go HERE for more information.

A Well Rounded Old Fashioned Education
- The EES cover every topic. Many of the series are still household names almost a hundred years after they ceased being published. The most famous and popular of these series are the McGuffey's Readers and Ray's Arithmetics, but there were many other extraordinary series in the EES such as Pinneo's Grammars, Thalheimer's Histories and Norton's Sciences that have been used by countless students.
- The books provided Americans with a brand of textbook they could trust, the EES. The authors commissioned to do the various line of textbooks were at the top of their fields. No expenses were spared in preparing these incredible textbooks.Original art was commissioned for them, and they were refined and honed through multiple revisions over decades. As an added bonus, all of the books were written by Christian authors whose values were part of the backbone of early America. To read more go HERE
