CAMPFIRE STANDARDS:
Our units are taught through living book format. This sometimes means “living story,” as well. They are applicable to all age levels, pre-reader to adult. If you would like to see how we adjust each level for difficulty (while allowing the whole family to come together), please visit this page HERE.
UNIT DESCRIPTION:
This is the unit you do not want to regret skipping.
Do you know the ins and outs of how to keep your home safe, how to check for security vulnerabilities, how to prevent intruders, how to spot anything out of the ordinary, how to best utilize alarms (and did you know they often don’t work??), and how to avoid any sort of tampering? What about whether you are supposed to hide or get out of the house? Which situation calls for which action?
We consulted with some whose careers are actually keeping the ‘most important people’ in the world (and their families) safe, while in their home and out of it. We took their tips and tricks to help you, because after all… YOU are protecting your own family–which is your own “VIP.”
We made it fun for the littles (a LOT of fun!) while also keeping in serious elements. We made this with your entire family in mind! It has a high activity and game focus, so little kids don’t get scared, but it does contain mature element for older students as well. It is perfectly suited for the whole family to do together.
CORE SUBJECTS:
This unit is to be used as an extracurricular.
DIFFERENCES FROM THE NORM:
**THIS PARTICULAR UNIT DOES NOT CONTAIN CORE CONNECTIONS LIKE OUR OTHER UNITS AND IS INTENDED AS AN EXTRACURRICULAR.
This will be the first in a potential two-part series (up to customer vote), where the second is even more advanced concepts.

Home Defense was our first Campfire Curriculum and it was a big hit with my boys. We have a 5 year age gap so it can sometimes be difficult to find stuff that fits both their interests but this fit. After trying many other unit studies that just didn’t work for us my boys were reluctant to try this one but we are so glad we did! It was very well laid out and I was able to easily navigate for my middle schooler and 2nd grader to make it suitable for both. It really opened our minds as a family to some things we might not always think about regarding home defense. We are excited to have started our Campfire Curriculum journey and can’t wait to purchase our next unit.

Highly recommend!
We are a military family. As we were gearing up for dad leaving on another deployment, I had my husband lead our kiddos through Home Defense (Ages 4-12). They are not new to dad being away for work, but we had just moved and it was a timely opportunity for them to build awareness.
I have to say I am so impressed with Campfire! The kids learned about the whys and hows of home protection without making them fearful or paranoid, which is huge when Dad is away.
They felt empowered and confident in helping make decisions about our own home defense while also having so much fun!
So far our experience in the few units that we have done, Campfire Curriculums is always very thorough and the delivery of the information is so well thought out!! It takes all the work off my shoulders for planning a unit study, and my kids stay engaged ❤️
