      Great curriculum!

      Praise God for this curriculum. It has brought us many happy times and has taken a huge burden off my shoulders. I now know we can have fun while doing school. And there's no pressure to perform, for me or my children. Thank you, Jennifer Pepito, for the freedom you've given me.

      Exactly what I was looking for!

      This was what I was needing for my family. Something gentle yet hearty. Such good content and so well planned out. I am definitely an open and go kind of mom and this fit in that category with little planning.

      Perfect Balance

      I came across this curriculum while on Pinterest trying to find that fit for our homeschool. After trying book lists that leave it up to the parent to pull together the rest and trying boxed curriculums, I just couldn't find something I liked. It was either to loosely laid out or leaving the feeling of being very rigid. We have been doing the Playful Pioneers for two weeks with my 2nd grader and I love that it's just enough without being to much. So thankful we came across this product ❤️
