The delight you want to cultivate in your homeschool isn’t something you have to search for—it’s right under your nose.
It’s 9am. Time to gather the kids. (Yes, you can wear your PJs.)
But when your 8-year-old looks at the “to do” list, does he cheer…or maybe die a little inside?
When you’re teaching reading, writing, arithmetic and trying to squeeze every last drop out of that boxed curriculum…
You may be leaving out the one critical thing for turning your kids into lifelong learners:
Delight.

And the one subject you’re leaving out?
It’s the missing link that could pull it all together.
Science isn’t optional. It isn’t extra. It isn’t a “nice” thing to teach if you can find the time.
Because when you use science to unlock smiles, excitement, and “When can we learn this, Mom?”
…you’re giving your kids a solid education that’s also inspired.
Earth Science Explored Elementary in 3 Easy Steps…
WATCH ENGAGING VIDEO LESSONS
Login to your online classroom each week and let your kids watch the engaging video lesson that will introduce them to basic earth science principles. Watch together as a family, or each child can watch on their own!
ENGAGE IN FUN ACTIVITIES & ASSIGNMENTS TO MAKE SCIENCE COME ALIVE
With each lesson you’ll be provided with hands-on activities, creative play, memory work, and more. You decide what to integrate into your lesson and what to skip. Customize the course to fit your family’s unique needs.
EXPLORE LIVING BOOKS FROM RECOMMENDED READING LISTS
Further your children’s education and love of science by using some (or all) of the books on the reading list. Choose from the list of living books and use them as read-alouds for the family or independent reading assignments for each of your children.
I’ve done a lot of living books and nature walks for science, but as my children have gotten older I needed more structure.
My 7-year-old loved the explanations in Earth Science Elementary and said they were clear and understandable. My 10-year-old loved the videos as well as the experiments. Thank you! Just thank you so much for creating an engaging, educational program that’s obviously a labor of love for your family.
In addition to homeschooling, I work full time, so I was having a hard time getting science done.
My kids weren’t engaged with the curriculum I’d planned, and it was another thing that I had to make sure I had time to lead. But I absolutely love the engaging content in Earth Science Explored Elementary. Even though I purchased this to be independent, I find it so entertaining I usually watch with the kids! I have even learned lots of new things in this elementary course. It’s my favorite science curriculum!
What’s Included in the Elementary Program?
30 fun video lessons so you can take a break from teaching and still give your kids a solid education
Dozens of hands-on activities you and your child can to do together that will bring the lessons to life
Recommended reading lists with books that can be read aloud or assigned as independent reading to further your child’s understanding of earth science and build reading skills
Memory work to strengthen your children’s minds and commit important foundational facts to their long-term memory
Copywork that accompanies every lesson to reinforce key concepts while practicing handwriting skills
Lessons can take as little as 15 minutes, or expand to a few hours of fun and learning! The lessons are flexible to fit your family’s schedule.
I’m not a science person and I find textbooks to be pretty boring.
Your beautiful videos sold me on trying your program for the first time this year. They are so much more interesting than just a plain lecture. Students are able to really engage with the material and see what they are learning. Don’t be afraid to make the investment in Earth Science Explored Elementary. It is worth it!
This course has taken work off my plate and has been far more engaging than the science books we’ve used in the past.
My first grader retains information because the videos are engaging and my fifth grader has learned much more than previous courses. The great thing about this course is it’s simplicity — don’t overcomplicate things. My kids love this course!
My daughter was hating school because it wasn’t fun. I really wanted her to enjoy learning…
…but I’m not a science person and didn’t know how to make science fun. This program has been a lifesaver! It’s opened up a new world to my daughter, she’s asking questions about space, and pointing out things she’s learned to her dad.
My daughter’s now enjoying school and both of us have loved learning about astronomy. I’ll be signing her up for the high school program when she’s old enough.
You’ve got questions… we’ve got answers!

Which class is right for my child: the elementary or the upper level course?
The elementary-level course is designed for students in the elementary grades.
- Video lessons are shorter than the upper-level videos and taught using simpler language for younger viewers.
- The concepts taught in the elementary course are more basic, whereas the level B course includes the basic concepts and goes much deeper.
- Activities in the elementary course include more hands-on creative projects whereas the level B course has more involved labs that require a greater amount of critical thinking skills.
- Reading assignments for the elementary course are living books that can be used as read-alouds or assigned as independent reading, geared towards students ages 6-11. The recommended reading for the level B course is a textbook geared more towards teens.
- Supplemental activities for the elementary course include things like copy work and memory cards, suitable for elementary level students.

Earth Science Explored Elementary is more than a science class.
It’s the gateway to engaging young minds and unlocking a love of learning!
I’ve always been nervous about starting a new curriculum — would it be worth the money? Would it be well rounded and fit with our homeschool style?
I loved that Experience Biology Elementary was planned out and done for me — it was click and go. It was filled with rich content, could be used
I liked most of all that we could sit down and learn without a lot of prep time!
As a mom homeschooling several grade levels at once, having a course that was complete but didn’t take a lot of my time to prep was important. But most of all, I appreciated that I could trust the content because it was based in Scripture.
We have a Fabulous Fit Promise. We want this course to be a fabulous fit for your family. Based on our parent and student feedback, we think you will be delighted with the course.
However, we offer a 100% money-back, happiness guarantee. For our elementary courses, that means you have 30 days from when you purchase to review the course. If it’s not a great fit for your family — let us know and we’ll give you a full refund.
