I love being able to do "Easter School" with my kids each morning. We have done the Christmas program from Treehouse Schoolhouse for a few years, and it's always a hit. An Expectant Easter is no different. It gives both my kids AND myself a better connection and understanding of the Easter story. I love it! Thank you so much for creating these programs. :)
This helped us create a special spirit in our home this Easter season. We loved the craft and storybook ideas. We would love the scripture verses in the King James Version, but I just adapted them myself. It's lovely to take advantage of Lyndsey's hard work!
We’ve enjoyed this addition to our Easter season! We will continue to use it for years to come. I appreciate how it can be adaptable for many ages!
We’re loving going through this curriculum! I love the easy open and go lesson plans, the activities and the incorporation of most subjects into one curriculum. It feels like it simplifies my homeschooling and offers a change and an opportunity to focus on important seasonal celebrations while not falling behind with school. I find it difficult to get to all the hands on activities but I think that’s because I have 4 little ones 8 and younger so multiple interruptions and extra help are just a part of life. I love that I can adapt this curriculum for my 3, 5 & 8 year olds to all participate in some way! Thank you for creating this curriculum! We love the Christmas Across the World curriculum too and hope to purchase the Valentine’s and Thanksgiving curriculums next year!
This has been a great way for us to connect as a family over the true meaning of Easter and has provoked the children to ask questions and think deeply about things. 100% recommend!
We had so much fun with this curriculum and learned so much. We have also done the Christmas curriculum and are about to start the Easter one!
I’m new to homeschooling, and when I found this, I knew it was just what I needed! It’s the perfect way to stay organized keeping track of lessons, attendance, and the subjects we cover each day. Thank you for making something so helpful, affordable, and easy to use!
This has been the most wonderful addition to our morning time. I am homeschooling pre-k & k and my girls and I have enjoyed this nature study so much!
We love this unit, it has everything you need and is a fun and exciting way to learn the story of Easter in detail!
Kids are loving it...has scripture and the story of easter with fun activities that aren't overwhelming to put together
Beautiful nature study curriculum. It saved me tons of time to prepare and my daughters loved it.
This is a beautiful nature curriculum.
My only concern is that here in Alberta our temperatures get much lower than-20. The thermometer is going to be kind of useless to us for a large part of our winter unfortunately.
Fabulous! Such a blessing to our family during this Easter season and MANY more to come! ❤️
I haven't taught this yet, but purchased it in preparation for Christmas after I got the Easter curriculum . After browsing through it, I can't wait to teach it. I love that it's multidisciplinary and also faith based.
I am thrilled to have found this sweet curriculum. It will allow our family to connect through learning more about the truth of Easter by allowing our hearts and minds to focus on Him.
My four children were so engaged! They are ages 4-11 so it was a great to have an open and go devotional that everyone loved.
Great curriculum. My only wish would be for some more simple copy work for younger kids who are just learning their letters.
We just finished our first week of the Spring Collection and the results have been amazing. In 2023-2024, we had sort of just free styled it for my oldest daughter's kindergarten year using whatever book was available at Costco plus an overarching theme which was successful-ish. By the time January 2025 rolled around we had four children - ages 6, 4, 2, and a newborn. We were seriously over our heads and both my husband and I and our two oldest were burnt out and the 2 y/o was at the helm of a (frustrating but adorable) revolt. We were desperate. This program has been a lifesaver, our daughters love it, they are totally excited for school, we're excited because we have some direction and resources, and many of the behavior issues we were dealing with have resolved themselves instantaneously simply by having the daily rhythm - how brilliant a schedule that is flexible and forgiving yet structured enough to provide security and predictability. My oldest is telling everyone about her new cards that are hanging up to let us know what we're doing for the day. And Treehouse's idea for a chore loop is so brilliant, I can't tell you how much guilt you've removed from this tired mom's conscience. I can finally clean my house yet not feel bad if something isn't done that day because now I can just get to it when it is next on the loop.
As for the Four Seasons Collection - it's beautiful, we love the illustrations they are so pleasant, calming, and peaceful to look at. I love that it is quite flexible. I can pick and choose what order we do the weeks to fit our weather (Canada), family circumstances, and the resources available at the time. I'm able to include my toddler which has dulled the chaos, or at least paused it for a period each day, and my oldest two are getting adequate learning in. But best of all it is teaching me how to teach. I have no experience with young elementary students and this collection has really allowed me to teach at their level and removed a lot of frustration from both sides. The only side effect is my 4 y/o who loves all things pink, ballet, and will only wear dresses (because "they are her joy") also loves villains in every story. So this week she spent a considerable amount of time waving her arms around declaring loudly "I'm a weedy character" (thank you Ms. Maple's Seeds). We are so happy and love this collection and your advice and can't wait to use it for years to come.
I am thrilled with our purchase of an expectant Easter! It has given us a fun, truth filled curriculum to connect with and have fun. It’s engaging for my 5yo, 7yo and 9yo. I highly recommend!
