“I was so happy that I finally found a curriculum that was non-religious, nature and play-based and that was engaging to my son. We have so much fun doing pre-k! I can’t say enough good things about Blossom and Root! I am so grateful for the curriculum!” – Vanessa W., Blossom and Root Early Years

“Blossom and Root has been a dream come true for us. After a couple of miserable months using a different curriculum, my sweet boy was losing his love of learning and was beginning to dislike “school.” I came across Blossom and Root and, oh my goodness, it has been everything we wanted! My little guy loves it and we have the most wonderful time learning together. He actually begs to do school now! Thank you!” – Kimberly S., Blossom and Root First Grade

“Blossom and Root Kindergarten has been a great tool for us in our first year of homeschooling. It is extremely easy to set up and follow, as well as customizable in terms of scheduling. The art studies were a big hit for both of my children and the integrated math and science was engaging. The prep work really is minimal, which was important to me as a mom of 2 young children. I definitely recommend this curriculum as a gentle introduction to more focused work and learning at home.” – Courtney B., Blossom and Root Kindergarten

Homeschool Curriculum, Reimagined.

At Blossom and Root, we believe that curriculum is meant to support and encourage both parent and child in their educational journey. We are committed to creating high-quality, creative, secular homeschool curriculum and resources that empower the parent educator and inspire the young learner. 

Please note: We are not an umbrella school, charter, etc. and we do not submit any records whatsoever to the state for anyone. We simply provide homeschool curricula that can be downloaded and used to teach your children in your home. Parents are responsible for knowing, understanding, and following all requirements for homeschoolers in their state, regarding declaration of intent, attendance records, testing, portfolios, etc. Blossom and Root does not provide these services and is not responsible for ensuring that these requirements are met for your family.
