Thanks for filling a gap of what’s been missing in the New Zealand Homeschool Curriculum. Can’t wait to see more!
What a huge range of activities, so much value in each purchase. I love the fact that there are lots of hands-on, practical, nature based activities, my boy loves these. My daughter is obsessed with the social/interpersonal activities and creative stuff. This is hands down the best curriculum we have come across in our homeschool journey so far.
Thanks so much for getting my son interested in research! He’s never been that interested but he is now. You have a great job!
The Wildering Nook’s products have never failed to draw the kids in when I set them out as invitations to learn.
My favourite thing in the volcano study was making the volcano model. I liked it best because I loved seeing it erupt. I like volcanoes because I live in one and I like learning about them.
