(Watch the video if you want to see me all giddy over the Phonics Museum Curriculum and why I think it is a spectacular resource…you’ll see some lovely art from the kit as well)
Friends, we have a wonderful giveaway for you today.
Veritas Press is generously giving away an entire Kindergarten/First Grade Combo Kit of their Phonics Museum reading curriculum to a Raising Homemakers reader!!!!!! We’re talking two years of reading curriculum here.
The Phonics Museum (which is based around classical education) not only teaches your child to read, but also engages their mind with fine art. Reading and art are intertwined in the curriculum, which is what I love so much about it. As your child explores letters and sounds and vowels and all the phonic concepts (including learning to write), they will also be exploring art through the “phonics museum” that a family goes through during the course of the curriculum (fascinating, right?!).
“The student will enter the world of phonic reading by following a young boy and his family on a scavenger hunt through a museum, experiencing the wonder of art while discovering letter sounds.” -Veritas Press
The other thing I adore about the curriculum is the content of the primers/early readers (all 31 of them!). The books, filled with biblical and historical content, are worth reading. You will read books about Martin Luther, Ben Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, Daniel and the Lions Den, fathers of the faith, and many more inspiring, interesting stories.
My Ella likes this book, of course

“We LOVED the K program. But be warned: it’s totally classical education and comes with a big thick workbook. For all of our hands-on, face-in-the-wind learning we do, we also love a couple of good workbook pages every day. Yes, I actually wrote that: we love workbook pages. And The Phonics Museum has lovely ones.” -Laura, 10 Million Miles and RH contributor
