• Is the cultivation of your child's heart and soul equally as important to you as their bank of knowledge?
• Do you desire to sow seeds of truth, goodness, and beauty into their hearts daily?

If so, keep reading.

Gentle + Classical Primer (2nd edition) brings the joy, creativity, and simplicity to the early years that you've been craving... all with a 100% FREE Teacher's Guide.

Why buy the bundle?

1) Save VALUABLE time! The Art + Activity Guide includes a variety of pre-planned activities with detailed instructions (including images) for you and your little one. You can avoid the stress and overwhelm of Pinterest.

2) Save MONEY! Our current pre-order pricing cannot be beat! We will never offer this bundle as low as $19.99 again, and our highest print discount of 15% at Black Friday doesn't touch this print offering of $159.99 (with a free menu cover!).

3) Save SANITY! You have so much to do already. With the bundle, you'll receive a supply list, book list, and schedule. You'll simply need to follow the checklists to stock up, click links to view videos or print simple templates, and purchase four core books to use all year long. All other literature, music, and poetry are included in the bundle!

4) Save STRESS! A program that completely honors your child's unique developmental stages and their unique personhood while encouraging YOU each week brings the PEACE to home education that you've been craving. This is a Jesus-first, heart-first, family-first, childhood-honoring program. While the Teacher's Guide will give you the basic foundation, the Bundle makes implementation clearer and easier.
