The Quiet Growing Time
“In this time of extraordinary pressure, educational and social, perhaps a mother’s first duty to her children is to secure for them a quiet growing time, a full six years of passive receptive life, the waking part of it spent for the most part out in the fresh air.”
-"Home Education" by Charlotte Mason
This time with our littles is so fleeting and the world urges us to educate them early however Charlotte Mason reminds us that this is a treasured time for them to learn and to grow from the natural world around them!
Time passes so swiftly and we have this limited opportunity with them and if we blink we will miss it. Let's embrace letting them be little and coming alongside of them to encourage them and to play with them.
Ways to help capture this quiet growing time:
Nature walks
Collecting nature treasures
Painting
Singing
Building
Playing dress-up
Reading together
Tea parties
Picnics
Building forts
Playing the day away
Acting out favorite stories
The Peaceful Press is here to help equip you in your days with your littlest ones.
From toddlers to kindergarteners and preschool we are here to help you implement the peaceful days of their childhood in these quiet growing years alongside of them.
The Peaceful Loop is a wonderful way to include your toddler and preschooler in your homeschool days with short lessons that are already planned out for you and are so easy to implement into your days while schooling your older children.
The Peaceful Preschool gently introduces them to their letters and numbers and includes beautiful books to glean from and so much more gentle learning and exploring opportunities.
Nourishing Nature helps our Kindergarteners to expound upon what they have learned while encouraging that connection with the great outdoors and the world around them.
