Blossom and Root has an outstanding complete You just download the free lesson plans or pay for the ones that aren't free, and it's as easy as that. I'm not sure how different it is from other resources, but it definitely is a solid resource for those who need teaching resources at home. The resource includes lesson plans, schedules, activities, and basically has everything you need to homeschool a younger child. It was inspired by existing education and homeschooling philosophies and created by a mother who wanted to design secular and well-planned out lessons for her own children whom she homeschools. It's a resource that many people seem to have discovered Just download the lesson plans by paying (or get the free ones) for lesson plans and activities. It's a good choice for parents with younger people who do not want to make their own lesson plans or activities for their children. The activities and lesson plans can get a little repetitive or boring after a while, and as you child moves through the levels the types of activities seem to remain the same. Try the free lesson plans and activities first before you commit to anything paid, so you can evaluate if this is the type of resource you'd like to invest in.
