Everyone knows Cathy Duffy is often called the “end-all, be-all” of homeschool curriculum, since she’s been doing it for 40 years! We are so grateful she chose to review and detail our curriculum! Here are some of the AMAZING nuggets we pulled from her remarks, as can be found on her website

– “Developing self sufficiency is another recurring theme that shows up in some of the studies…”
– “Campfire Curriculums offer unusual topics in a format that allows the whole family, including dads, to learn together…”
