“I have been searching for a few years for the right addition to our morning time. I needed something that has poetry, reading, Biblical principles and nature oriented lessons. I would find something but become overwhelmed by the amount of "fluff" and extra content. These studies are so feasible and attainable and have added a wonderful component to our Charlotte Mason homeschool! My only problem is choosing which one to do next!!!! Love them all!!!” - Katie Woodruff

Simple Studies: Mythical Creatures

With Simple Studies: Legendary Creatures, students cover narration, dictation, ancient history and geography, mythology, literature, citizenship, art and more all while you simply read aloud.

Each lesson offers a reading from Legendary Creatures, a prompt for narration, dictation, deep dive discussions, geography lessons, prompts for drawing and corresponding coloring pages to print off for each young (Pre-K/K) student. Lessons also offer optional helpful links, a picture booklist, optional activities such as country explorations, mapwork, and helpful suggestions for further study.

This is not a literature comprehension guide––it’s a deep dive into our children’s hearts and a resource to help us teach them timeless truths.

Additional Review Questions and Mythical Watercolor Illustrations are included.

In Philosophy of Education (Volume 6), Charlotte Mason writes: "...the myths of ancient peoples, of the Greeks and Romans, for example, are read with delight and intelligence by quite young children."
