A Jesus-centered homeschool for the early years.
Online for you. Beautifully analog for them.
The Childhood AlmanacOnline for you. Off-screen for them.The Childhood Almanac lives online, in a members-only portal built for the parent. There is no book to buy, nothing to print, and nothing to file. You open the day on your phone or tablet over your first cup of coffee, read the few-minute plan, and the screen goes back in a drawer before the children ever sit down. What they experience is entirely analog: real books, real objects, and their own paper notebook. You hold the plan. They hold the crayon.
Mornings with JesusEvery single day begins here, in the Word, before the letters and the numbers. A verse, a short story, a song, and a prayer. Ten minutes that set the tone for everything after. This is not a subject we tacked on. It is the reason the whole thing exists. We start each day with the One who made them.
Raising good humans starts with Jesus.
The Little AlmanacInstead of worksheets you toss in the recycling, your child keeps one notebook: The Little Almanac. Day by day, they fill it with their letters, their numbers, their drawings, and the words you write down for them, until the day they can write their own. You keep one beside them, too. By spring it is not a workbook. It is a handwritten record of a whole year of their childhood, the kind of thing you keep forever. Nothing to print, ever.
Science-Backed LessonsSlow and screen-free does not mean behind. Every lesson is built on the research that actually works: the science of reading, with letters taught in the proven order so words click into place; math learned with real objects in their hands long before any symbol on a page; and play that builds the focus and self-control that set a child up to thrive. It meets Kindergarten standards and reaches into first grade, and it hands you the records to prove it, the moment your state asks.
All at one tableOur curriculum provides flexible milestones across three developmental stages, designed to let multiple ages learn side-by-side without rigid grade boxes.
Focused on sensory play, auditory rhythm, and building basic letter-sound awareness.
Stage One
Focused on tactile learning, tracking letters in flour trays, and counting physical objects.
Stage Two
Fulfills Kindergarten standards with advanced phonetic blending, mental math equations, and notebook writing.
Stage Three
Twelve units, gathered into four collections that carry your family through the year.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
It is a comprehensive, all-in-one resource. Each unit gently weaves Bible, Science, Literacy, and Math into one seamless story, providing a complete academic foundation for the early years.
-
At this age, formal lessons should be short and joyful. You can expect your core connection time to take about 45 minutes to an hour. The rest of the day is for play, stories, and simply living out the unit’s theme!
-
Not at all. Because we use a 12-month loop instead of a traditional seasonal calendar, you can start Little Oceans or Little Me whenever you are ready. You are never "behind" in the Homeroom Club.
-
To keep your costs low and access instant, the Handbook is a digital-only resource. However, we have designed it to be 'mama-friendly' so you can pull it up on your phone or tablet while you teach. Your children will do all their physical work in their analog Wonder Journals, keeping their childhood screen-free.
-
Most curricula are built for a 9-month sprint, leading to "summer slide" and a rush to the finish line. We prefer a steady, year-round flow that prevents learning loss and removes the pressure to cram. Because our units are "rhythm-based" rather than "calendar-based," they move at the pace of your life. If you take a month off for travel, simply pick up where you left off. It’s a continuous journey designed to grow with your family, year after year.
-
We believe in family-style learning where everyone gathers at one table. Explorers (ages 3–4) focus on sensory play and joyful exposure. Pathfinders (ages 4–5) begin bridging the gap with letter sounds and early quantity. Voyagers (ages 5–6+) dive deeper with scientific observation, early writing, and narration in their Wonder Journals. You teach them all at once using the same materials, but with different depths of engagement.
-
No. We believe homeschooling is a family affair. One Founding Member membership covers every child in your immediate household. We do ask that you please not share your login with another family.
-
Our 'Supply Philosophy' is to shop your house first. Most activities use simple pantry staples like flour, salt, and string, or treasures found in nature. If a specialized tool is suggested, it’s usually a one-time investment in a high-quality item—like a magnifying glass or a watercolor set—that will last for years. We also provide a curated Amazon Shopping List for your convenience.
