I love that you point out Simple Charlotte Mason isn’t social media popular. I think it IS overlooked! There is so much beauty and simplicity in it 💛 thanks for your reviews as always!
I completely agree with you Meghan! I think it stays true to the Charlotte Mason philosophy, which we try to adhere to as much as possible. I think it is such a beautiful way to learn.
Simply Charlotte Mason has become my favorite this year as well. It’s solid and the enrichment studies are so worth it. It’s made it so easy for me and I love being able to fit in all of the beautiful subjects without any stress.
I really appreciate you mentioning the hard- to- find history curriculum. I live in America and as a person of color, I would prefer that my children are exposed to more than just American history. Thank you for your review!
Yes, I have a hard time because many free curriculums have a very ....i don't know what to say... But you know... as far as history. So I'm thinking of substituting that aspect.
Thank you so much for this review! Next year I’d planned on purchasing SCM for our rising first grader. We are in kindergarten now and very much following a CM philosophy while also listening to what our child wants to learn.
ive just found your channel! im in australia but lived in auckland for a few years of my childhood. first generation christian too, and im currently homeschooling my 5 year old so super excited to hear your advise!
I completely agree that you can connect to history so much more when you connect to the stories of people. I used both Sonlight and Abeka when I was growing up, and what I remember most came from the books that were part of Sonlight...not from the textbooks. Thanks for sharing this review, I was really interested, because I didn't really understand quite what it included.
I have had my eye on Simply Charlotte Mason for years, but never took the plunge. I'm not sure why... but the Bible/History combo really caught my eye. I think I never went with it is because I felt like I could just plan this on my own.
Wonderful review! We have only used their enrichment subjects thus far and have loved them! Definitely interested in their geography and the science curriculum! We plan to use A Gentle Feast (another CM inspired curriculum) for 1st grade, but I might add in the geo and science from SCM:)
Hi is it possible if you can do in full look walk through of outdoor secrets companion? I am debating on the purchase and have yet to find anyone who has used it before. You are the first! Thank you in advance!
I liked hearing your review on this! To be honest, the social media popular curriculums haven't worked that well for us lol I switched a lot up this year and we use the boring looking stuff, but it works well for us. We use Spelling Wisdom and I'm liking the setup and approach!
Hello! For the history/bible/geography- does the Bible section correspond with history? I’m wondering if I can sub their Bible with our own scripture study
I hear you about Instagram homeschool curriculum. There are so many "pretty" curriculum out there, but the substance may be lacking. I've been drawn to Simply Charlotte Mason, but haven't taken dive. Maybe this is the year!
Thank you!! This is so helpful! I´m sold out with pretty much everything. But I have doubts about Language Arts, I have a second and a forth grader, do you have any insight on that?
Please help me understand how to support my child. My child has ADHD and attends a school based on the Charlotte Mason philosophy. How can I help my child concentrate in a classroom with 10 children?
I did Abeka History in Christian school growing up... I also hated it and don't remember a thing! It wasn't until Middle School when my teachers showed me more through living books.
Hello, I am new with homeschool and I don’t know if I can make it with my 9 years old Je will be on 4th grade next year, do you recommend to get the full curriculum? I don’t know how will be the schedule… maybe do you have a video to showing step by step please … thank you
I don't use their whole curriculum. I personally use different curriculums for different subjects. There are several videos on my channel explaining what we use. :)
Thank you for sharing this video. I was looking for a history book for my son. I would like to know when did u start History with your kids? what age? My son is 6 and not sure if the history simply charlotte mason is better for second grade.
We tailor curriculum to suit us wen needed!!! We have American family but don’t live in America and don’t use a American history curriculum. We onli use books and RUclips videos at the moment. Nothing wrong wiv finishing early. Nothing wrong wiv challenging kids!!!
The peaceful press may be a good option for you. You could do the precious people or the kind kingdom that wouldn't have an america focus. A mix of CM and hands on and alot of picture books and some chapter books.
I have a question…. Does the Bible and history go hand in hand? Meaning are they together in the same book, but not learned as one history timeline? Or do you learn what is happening in Genesis and also what is happening in the world somewhere else? I want a curriculum that will teach us like this. We want to know what was happening in the world when Queen Esther was living. This is an example. I hope I made myself clear. Another program that I’ve heard does this is mystery of history but I like the Charlotte Mason approach in this one. But I want the Bible and history to be one, if that makes sense. 😅
Their website is wonderful!!! And full of sample pages. The samples will be right above where you would add to cart 😀. This will be our fifth year using simply Charlotte mason absolutely love the company!!!
Do you still use their history a couple years later? I have a kinder and 2nd grader and I am wanting to introduce history this year but struggling between SCM, Biblioplan, not grass or Beautifuo feet. I really wanted a Curriculum that starts with creation and works to modern times, but there are t many reviews for SCM or Biblioplan. Lots more for notgreass and beautiful feet but those start with American history 👎🏼. We are American, but I feel more strongly for biblical history than American history 😂🙈

Our favorite apart of SCM is the enrichment program. All my children enjoy it, and it is so open and go. We are teaching 4th, 9th, & 10th.
Yes, it's super easy to use!

Have you done a comparison between SCM and Sonlight for history? I've never used either but I'm trying to decide! I've heard SCM isn't as thorough.

I love SCM! Did you see the new science they just came out with? So exciting!!
We use SCM Picture Study and it has been so easy to implement and it brings such richness to our studies.
Yes, it's lovely!

I've heard really good things about Spelling Wisdom. :)
I appreciate the history prospective 😊 And I'm so intrigued about the hymn studies! I'll definitely check that out.
Glad it was helpful! :)
This is random but you look so much like Emma Watson!
Thanks for all your content! It’s been super helpful to our family!
Hello! For the history/bible/geography- does the Bible section correspond with history? I’m wondering if I can sub their Bible with our own scripture study
Yes, it does correspond. :)
I’ve been so curious about this curriculum and we are going hardcore CM this year. Thanks!
How did it go this year? Interested in doing the same this upcoming year 😊😊
I just placed my first "Simply Charlotte Mason" order for next year! We will be incorporating their Artist studies and Poetry study!
Yay! Enjoy!

I haven't used their Language Arts but Abby from Rooted in Rest does!
Hi! Great video. About how long everyday do you spend on bible,history,geography lesson? Thanks!
We're not currently using this anymore but I would say it was about 15-20 minutes per lesson.
@@ThisHomeschoolHouse what are you using now?

Yes, I enjoyed the math and LA in elementary but not so much in highschool.

I didn't even know they had science lol
I'm looking into doing the music studies and the bible history
I have Laying Down the Rails by SCM but interested in trying some more of what they have to offer. Thanks for sharing.
Do you love living in New Zealand? That's my DREAM place to live.
Nowhere is perfect, but it is a pretty great place to live. :) I've never been tempted to leave.
Nice video,,n u doing great work
Thanks for the video! I would love to see inside the enrichment books. I have an 8 and 5 year old. How old are yours?
My kiddos are 6, 4, and 2. :)

We're currently using Sonlight History. We did enjoy this but it was difficult to manage the read alouds at the time with a baby in tow.
@@ThisHomeschoolHouse I haven’t looked into sonlight at all. I will take a look!
Now that the year has passed, what’s your thoughts on the curriculum?
It's wonderful, but we're using something else now. :)
@@ThisHomeschoolHouse May I ask what and why? Or have you made a video on your new curriculum choice?
How long are the SCM lessons? How much time does it take you?
They can take anywhere from 5-20 minutes depending on the content being covered. 😀
