"Congratulations! You have done a wonderful thing here, and I am so grateful
that there are young mama's like you! I have ordered your October curriculum to
add to my library, and plan to order each month as it becomes ready. I am thrilled
that you are sharing such creative and heartfelt ideas." - Marianne, mother of 5
grown children, grandmother of 2 and Waldorf early childhood educator for 18
years.
"I wanted to say I have taken some time to look over things and they are
EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you SO MUCH for the wonderful work
and effort you have compiled!" - Paula
"I just purchased the September curriculum and guide and I love it. It is beautiful.
I can't wait to put the rhythms into practice and do some of the activities, read the
stories and verses with my children. I just wanted you to know that I am so happy to
have found you, your blog and your work. Thanks for sharing it. It is worth every
penny. I know it is a labor of love on your part. Many thanks" - Emily

day with the curriculum on Monday." - Michelle

"Thank you for creating such a warm and life giving curriculum for our little
ones, it looks wonderful and I really appreciate the weekly themes as we are
very much literature lovers here and I plan to pull lots of wonderful
picture books to go along with each weeks theme." Sonya
"Sometimes when I read your blog, I am transported back to a simpler time, an era
where toys didn't need batteries and children engaged all five senses in playing." -

"This blog is such a treasure! Your young friends are so lucky to have you as a
teacher and caregiver :)" - Amanda
"WOW! Yesterday we started our Little Acorns nature curriculum and it has made
my week so much brighter! To walk with 3 toddlers (on a string) and have them
delight in bugs, leaves, grass and pinecones was so refreshing "...the kids had a
blast being outside and the parents reported how well everyone slept last night. We
made our animal treats this morning and now the kids smell like tuna - but it was
so fun. It is days like these that remind me WHY I am a childcare provider." - Tonia
"I ordered the October curriculum last weekend. I just started homeschooling my
boys, a fourth-grader and a first-grader(actually, we haven't really even begun...I
just pulled them out of public school). I also have two girls, almost four and 8 1/2
mos. I am using Well-Trained Mind as a resource for teaching the boys, but I love
your curriculum and hope to integrate it as much as possible with our other work.
We have been doing the morning and evening blessing, and the kids love it." "...I
wanted to tell you that it strikes a chord with me--it feels comforting and natural
and helps me to find a center for which I have been longing." - Jody
"I'm absolutely in love with Eileen's curriculum. It's exactly what i was looking for,
and love the activities she has in it." - Sasha
"Our days have become full of beautiful moments since we found your site." - Cara
