We are planning to sail away for a year or two with our seven year old and would love to take oak meadow on the road with us.
Age 6. I have heard many good things about Oak Meadow. I like Oak Meadows hands on learning. I looked at the first grade package and liked the concepts to be taught for the year. Including calender cycle, letters, numbers, fairy tales and so on.
Both liked on FB.
9 year old – I think she’d like the hands-on activities. I’d like the slower approach to learning than is often found elsewhere. (Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!)
Thanks for all of these great giveaways! My girls are 8 and almost 7, and my son is 2! I have been planning on trying the Waldorf method this upcoming year, so a whole Oak Meadow curriculum would be perfect!! Thanks!

My children are 12, 8, and 5. We have been homeschooling all of the children, basically since birth. Having just come through a rough couple of years of sojourning and using a very rigid fundamentalist curriculum we have decided to make the transition to the much more gentle, creative, and flexible Oak Meadow curriculum. Having explored the samples and talked to families using Oak Meadow, we really feel that this will meet all of the children’s learning needs and styles, and allow them to walk the world in wonder again 😀
My kids are 2, 5 and 9
We love the whole child, natural approach of OM!
I already “like” OM on facebook
And already like simple homeschool on Facebook 🙂
4 and 11 months!
We are excited to begin Oak Meadow this fall with our outdoor-loving preschooler! Our second son has some health issues and the flexibility and grace in the curriculum is going to be so helpful!
My daughter is 11. She learns best through hands on orojects and Oak Meadow would be the perfect fit for her!
We are trying to live an authentic life, connected with nature, and I believe Oak Meadow curriculum could help us in this journey. My children are 7 and 3 and love what we have seen from Oak Meadow in the past.

My daughter is 7 and going into 2nd grade. We pulled her out of public school mid year last year as it was not a good fit at all. She has numerous vision issues requiring vision therapy, Tourette’s syndrome, ADHD, anxiety and is gifted. She tells me almost daily how much happier and less stressed she is at home. She was having panic attacks almost daily at her previous school. Waldorf consistently comes up in my research for a scientific approach to special needs. She is a very creative girl and so far what I’ve learned of waldorf and incorporated into our lives has fit very well. We have been saving up for OM2 and winning this would free up a lot of funds for other homeschool supplies and adventures! I also have a 4 year old who I think Oak Meadow will fit well in the future! I have already liked both the Facebook pages! 🙂

My children are 10 and 7. They love project based learning and retain so much more when they get their hands dirty.
My twins are 6 and I love that the curriculum is nature based.
My sons are 12 and 15. I love the fact that OM is flexible and it challenges your kids to think about the content they just read about. There is no read and fill in blanks and I love that! I also love that there are many options for the student to express their knowledge about the subject!
Already liked OM on FB!!
My children are 3 and 5 years old and adore stories, natural learning and exploring. Oak Meadow just makes sense to us all. Emphasizing reading, rituals, creative skills and organic learning is what we have been looking for. I’ve basically unschooled my children (at such a young age! What’s wrong with the world!!!??!!) and have found my children. Two individuals who love to explore, love, learn and be themselves. From what I can see Oak Meadows supports us all in this journey and even if I don’t win the curriculum, I’m going to tell all how awesome it is and ordering it anyhow!
Thank you all for making me realise I’m not alone and crazy because I want my children to be loved, happy and healthy and not part of a corporate factory scheme.
Much love and keep up the good work! I am about to hit like on both of the above (or below?) mentioned fb pages to increase my chances of winning and sharing the awesomeness.
