Our Curriculum

We've used Heart of Dakota's Little Hands to Heaven, Little Hearts for His Glory and Beyond Little Hearts for His Glory.  We've also used Five in a Row and Sonlight briefly before returning to Heart of Dakota.

My top 3 reasons for sticking with Heart of Dakota...

1.  It trains their hearts!  The Bible is woven throughout the studies, passages are perfect for their ages, devotionals are very helpful and I find we have the best spiritual conversations while using HOD!

2. It is "open & go" for this CrAzY momma!  No matter how busy we are, we can do it!  I don't have to prepare, crafts/activities supplies can easily be swapped for something else in our craft stash or around the house.

3.  It gives me amazing one-on-one time with my kiddos.  It allows my youngest to have a playmate while I'm working with one of her older siblings, instead of having the DVD babysit her to keep her content & occupied.

Of course there's more reasons why I love it and we returned to it, but I'll stop at 3 for now...  :)
