About this product

Product Information

This unique book actually has a two-fold purpose. It's a story written especially for moms who get discouraged and feel like giving up on homeschooling, as well as a guide to nature study. It's written as the diary of one mother's year of teaching her children at home. In it she pours out her hopes, disappointments, and joy. In the course of caring for her many responsibilities, she is frequently frazzled and exhausted by nightfall. She manages by deciding to follow "the gentle art of learning"-a lifestyle of learning that helps to focus her days. She goes on nature walks with her children every Wednesday afternoon, and together they record their findings into their Nature Notebooks. Woven into the story are more than 50 examples of what to look for on a nature walk, Latin names for the living things observed by the characters, study questions, and nature poems and verses. this heartwarming story will encourage you to take joy in God's simple blessings

Delightful Reading For Homeschool Mothers
"Pocketful of Pinecones" is an opportunity to read a sweet story, and at the same time be inspired in the home-education of your children. It's a book I will re-read when I need encouragement and fresh vision for our homeschool. The mother in the story records in her journal the successes and trials in beginning to teach her son and daughter at home, after noticing her son's lessening enthusiasm for learning. She uses nature walks and Nature Notebooks rather than textbooks for teaching science, art, composition, handwriting, etc. They make a move from city to country, so teaching opportunities are presented for both. My book-loving third grade daughter also really enjoyed this story, and to my surprise has re-read it several times!

So inspiring!
I borrowed this book from a homeschool co-op we belong to and immediately loved it. I couldn't put it down. It offers a look into a homeschool moms days. It is set back in time but it was truly inspiring. The mom is learning to teach using the Charlotte Mason approach. She sets a great example as a Christian, mother, teacher, wife and sister in law. The book is written like a diary and broken into smaller sections if you don't have alot of time to read. I could have read it one sitting, it was that good! I bought a copy of the book for myself. It is a book you can read many many times.

Easy Reading
I found this to be a very easy book to read. It is interesting, it follows a story line, as well as giving pertinent informtion to the reader in an example of day to day homeschooling. I learned more about nature from this book than I had known before and my curiosity about nature grew. The reading style reminds me of the Little House On the Prairie, with the very simple way of living as well as recognizing God as the one who created our world. The resources in the back of the book are very helpful too.

Pocketful of Pinecones
I have really enjoyed this book! I was expecting an informative book on the Charlotte Mason method of homeschooling, but, instead, it is a wonderful fictional story! The story is about a family who are in their first year of homeschooling & they are trying the Charlotte Mason method of using Nature Books. I have actually learned quite a few things while following a very pleasant story line. The book's appendix lists several real books that will be most helpful in the future, I'm sure!
