The Little pilgrims big journey series is also amazing! Beautifully illustrated, and the perfect depth level for young children!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Wonderful to know!❤️

[@alishaberrey4479]

I really enjoy your videos. I love that someone has my philosophy of vintage and thrifted books/curriculum.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Thank you! I am glad to hear that I am not alone! ❤️

[@worldofweeze]

The Five in a Row supplement looks so wonderful!

[@Jennajones4]

👏🏻😍 …would love a video in depth on volume two and the books of 5 in a row and a week in the life using it !

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I’ll put it on the list!

[@worldofweeze]

The watercolor books look so dear!❤

[@samanthasmorong7519]

We are also doing five in a row. Love it so much! The watercolour curriculum looks amazing.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Yay! I am excited about it!

[@BlessingsatHome]

Little Pilgrims Progress is amazing, my kids loved it! It's so sweet the way they illustrated it and such as well.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

So happy to hear that! ❤️

[@benandcandicejilk9395]

We are starting the Five in a Row Bible Supplement as well this year! Do you do homeschool year round? Would love to know your philosophy behind this. Also, do you prep the night before with all the materials/books needed for homeschool the next day or is it all well planned and organized so you can just hit the ground running the next day? Thanks in advance!!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Oh yay! I am so excited about it! I will plan on talking about that in an upcoming Q and A!

[@benandcandicejilk9395]

I just saw that at hobby lobby!!

Hi Dana! For science this new year we are doing a nature study by Beautiful Feet books called Seasons Afield, and it uses that same watercolor book as part of it. We are so excited to get started on it, its such a beautiful curriculum. I love Charlotte Mason learning philosophy, and covering Character is so important in these young ages, something theyll carry with them forever. Y'all are going to have a lovely school year!

[@mindyjones8421]

We are doing Seasons Afield as well this year!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I have heard incredible things about Beautiful Feet Books!❤️ It sounds like you have an amazing years planned as well! ❤️

[@Dreblueskies]

We use FIAR for all outside of language arts and math. My little one loves it. Their Bible supplement is great too! I have Laying Down the Rails and could never work it, bummer. Maybe you could do a video about how you use it. I agree with you about the Handbook of Nature Study, it is so full of information!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I am SO excited about the Bible supplement!! ❤️🎉

[@reclaimingwonder]

In the forest water color looks so good… I’m very very tempted haha!

[@reclaimingwonder]

And the little pilgrims progress too…. There’s just too many good books tempting me to spend all my money on 😂😂

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

They have a whole series of them! 😱

[@violetinknotes]

Your review of FIAR makes me want to go look at it again, lol. I keep flipping between wanting it but then thinking about the other good curriculum I've got too. There's not enough time in the day for it all, lol😄 I recently got Little Pilgrims Progress too and so looking forward to starting it in a couple months!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Yes! So many good options now!! ❤️🎉

[@Busybeeexplorers]

Love all your picks! We use the Laying Down the Rails by SCM too for the last couple years. It had a lot of great insight in creating habits. Also I am going to be adding that Bible truths for toddlers to my thrift books order. ❤ Do you think the long story short devotional would be appropriate for a 6 year old? We are reading through The Ology now but I am looking for another apologetic book for next year.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Yes! My 6 year old loves the discussion!

[@simplyjen334]

Which one of the laying down the rails books do you recommend? Love all of your curriculum choices!! We are also using FIAR and I also just got the Bible supplement from Thrift Books and I also found the old holiday guide which I love! I also just bought the Little House book guide from The Masterpiece Studio and I am excited to try it!!!❤

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I just use the main one, but I have heard incredible things about the other age specific ones! So many beautiful options!

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

This is the one I have! amzn.to/45H4BO6

[@KikiP-rb8no]

I might use tuttle twins for history but are you planning on doing map works at all for geography?

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I use just simple learning placemats for our dining room table for geography. It’s fun, because the kids like to quiz each other during meal times or will make a game of who can find what state first! ❤️

[@priscillaramos3033]

Hi:) you work from home.. and homeschool and cook and clean like the rest of us homeschool moms.. when do u find time to organize?

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

I try to keep things fairly minimal since we have a smaller home, so the surface organization only takes a few minutes here and there. It’s the hidden drawers that get overlooked and out of control. Haha!

[@priscillaramos3033]

@@oursweetiebirdshome :)do u get a chance to organize the hidden drawers??

[@danahall1282]

What was the online Bible program you were talking about?

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Foundation Worldview! Wonderful program!

[@jasminesmith9202]

Lithos Kids also have a little prigrims progress that I think your little ones may love

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Thank you so much for the suggestion! ❤️

[@maggiebrewer5618]

Long Story Short is just the Old Testament. Old Story New is the New Testament.

[@oursweetiebirdshome]

Thank you for sharing that! Good to know! I will have to look at getting the other one!❤️❤️❤️
