EVER FEEL LIKE YOU’RE HERDING CATS? You long for smooth and easy mornings to start your homeschool day.

But most mornings you’re frantically gathering materials and wondering how your coffee got cold (again). The way you start your day sets the tone for yourself and your kids.

Start it with our open-and-go materials that allow you to breathe in truth, beauty, and goodness.

Sure, you could do all the heavy lifting—spending hours scouring Pinterest, listening to endless YouTube videos, or trying to piecemeal several guides together.

And let’s be honest, that will most likely happen late at night or the morning of, leaving you feeling exhausted before the kids even get out of bed.

What you need is simple, on-the-ready, expert-crafted lessons with:

*Beautiful art pieces picked out for you
*Multi-media listening guides
*Biographies on each artist
*Poetry to enhance the historical time period
*Age-appropriate recitation pieces (so your children can practice public speaking and reading the emotion of a poem or speech)
*Song lyrics and MORE

We used to start our homeschool mornings with chores or math, so we could get the hard stuff “out of the way.”

The only problem was that it made me want to pull the covers back up over my head or allow the kids “just a few more minutes to play” because I was dreading school.

Morning Time was what my soul needed.

This powerful practice of incorporating Charlotte Mason’s art-related topics first thing in the day gave life to our homeschool—and it can to yours, too.

“A morning in which a child receives no new ideas is a morning wasted.”- Charlotte Mason

The arts aren’t a waste of time!

Spending a few minutes each morning on these lessons can actually prepare your child’s brain for optimal learning the rest of the day. Let me get all my neuroscience nerdiness out on ya …

Here’s what happens to the brain during Morning Time:

Composer Study

Listening to classical music increases dopamine (the happy hormone) and improves memory

Picture Study

Analyzing a piece of art builds critical thinking skills

Poetry Study

Hearing and speaking the rich language of poetry develops complex reasoning

Singing Hymns and Folk Songs

Singing songs improves memory and releases endorphins

and more

Consider us your new morning bestie

We’ve taken the guesswork and planning out of creating tra morning time that gets everyone to the table (or couch, trampoline, porch—ya get the picture).

Our guides include an entire year of lesson plans with multi-media links, visuals, and student printables.

Light a candle, put on some relaxing music, pour yourself your favorite morning beverage, gather your youngins’ and open your daily serving of goodness.

Then sit back and watch as those seeds of living ideas start to shape your child’s character … and nurture your own heart as well!

The art-based subjects included in Morning Time aren’t just nice little add-ons.

Trust me … if you wait until you have time in your day to add them in … well, they probably won’t happen. In just 30 minutes a day, you can feed your children’s minds with truth, beauty, and goodness.

“I especially adore the well-coordinated Morning Time”

I especially adore the well-coordinated Morning Time plans complete with digital resources, hymn study, Scripture readings, recitation suggestions (by form), fables/tales, artist, composer, & poet—so much I did not have to choose or research on my own & they coordinate with the primary history era we’re all in!

“I wake up excited”

Our days are filled with the beauty of a painting, a musical composition, the lovely words of poet… I’ve seen the most change though, in myself. I no longer dread the start of a new school day. I wake up excited. My days are easy. I lay out the feast and get to watch my family enjoy the bounty I’ve set before them.

– Mandy from Ohio

“A Gentle Feast eliminates the decision fatigue”

I’ve been so very pleased with the morning time beauty loop. I love how it streamline and brings together our family for as much of the feast as possible.

– Steph from PA

“The Morning Time has been so precious to me”

The Morning Time has been so precious to me and my children. I’m often filled with tears when I try to tell my husband about it! I also love the fact that my kids tell me they actually love doing school now when that wasn’t the case before!

Yes, your whole family can learn together

“As for that aesthetic appetency . . . it dies of inanition when beauty is not duly presented to it, beauty in words, in pictures and music, in tree and flower and sky. The function of the sense of beauty is to open a paradise of pleasure for us. ”

(Vol. 6, A Philosophy of Education, p. 56)
