Welcome to the Treehouse Schoolhouse Blog

In this blog I’m sharing my favorite low stimulation shows for toddlers and preschoolers. These are shows little kids can enjoy and watch a few episodes of when they need a break and then resume our normal activities. While we limit screen time in our home, gentle shows like these offer benefits for kids when needed.

In this blog, I’m sharing some of my favorite Bible resources for kids, including engaging Bibles, storybooks, faith-filled podcasts, uplifting television shows, and inspiring music. These selections are designed to bring the Bible to life in ways that are easy for children to understand, filled with powerful messages, and effective in helping young minds connect with Biblical truths.

Field trips are an exciting part of our homeschool experience. Field trips can bring history to life, transform abstract concepts into tangible experiences, and foster a deeper understanding. Hands-on experiences inspire curiosity and creativity, making learning informative, fun, and memorable. These are my favorite ideas for field trips for homeschooled children and kids.

We love Fix It! Grammar because of how it teaches through storytelling and literature. This curriculum complements our Charlotte Mason homeschool studies, as it focuses on literature while pairing basic grammar skills with copywork in an engaging way. In this blog I review Fix It! Grammar, including what it is, how we use it, and our honest reviews.
