You're checking all the boxes,

and doing all the things:  

Reading, Math, History... 

But something is missing

Find the missing piece to bring the magic to your child's education with timeless stories, poetry, art, music, and games. 

You've spent hours and hours researching the perfect homeschool curriculum, studying homeschool methods, evaluating your child's learning style. 


You love spending your days living and learning in the best kind of way. 


You're committed to this lifestyle, and yet, at the end of the day, you're tired, worn out, and feel like even though you covered all the basics, you're missing that little bit of spark to ignite the magic of imagination, creativity, and discovery. 

The extras are ESSENTIAL. 

A magical childhood happens when YOU invest in your family with the best currency of all, YOUR TIME

In an age of distractions and constant bombardment by media of all kinds, stepping away from the hustle and bustle of life is more important than ever. Before the advent of TVs, smartphones, or even radio, families came together at the end of the day for connection, entertainment, and education. 


Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote, 


"Between the dark and the daylight,

   When the night is beginning to lower,

Comes a pause in the day’s occupations,

   That is known as the Children’s Hour."


The #childrenshourchallenge asks families to set aside ONE HOUR per week to spend as a family enjoying leisure activities. This is a time for sharing stories, reciting poetry, diving into the art and music of great artists and composers, engaging the hands with real work and beautiful handicrafts, and enjoying entertainment like games and brain-teaser puzzles. 



The Children's Hour is a seasonal collection filled with inspiration to bring a touch of magic to your child's education through art, music, and handicrafts.

What the experts have to say: 

"We are careful not to dilute life..."


"We believe that children are human beings at their best and sweetest, but also at their weakest and least wise. We are careful not to dilute life for them, but to present such portions to them in such quantities as they can readily receive.” ~ Charlotte Mason

"Meaning hides in repetition..."


"Meaning hides in repetition:  We do this every day or every week because it matters.  We are connected by this thing we do together. We matter to one another. In the tapestry of childhood, what stands out is not the splashy, blow-out trip to Disneyland but the common threads that run throughout and repeat:  the family dinners, nature walks, reading together at bedtime, Saturday morning pancakes.” ~ Kim John Payne, Simplicity Parenting
