A Wonder-Filled Beginning for Kindergarten and First Grade

Give your child a rich, meaningful year of learning while building a family rhythm filled with stories, beauty, discovery, and connection.

Gentle + Classical Primer is a 30-unit, Christ-centered program that brings literature, Scripture, theology, Creation science, poetry, art, music, virtue, manners, and hands-on learning into one clear, flexible rhythm. Fairy tales and living stories nourish your child’s moral imagination, while recitation, conversation, art, music, handicrafts, and scientific exploration bring learning to life.

Created for ages 5–7, Primer offers the depth you want with the flexibility family life requires. 

Primer gives you a guide for homeschooling days so that you know what to do next while retaining the freedom to choose what best serves your child and family.

(Note: Primer includes a science component. We do not recommend adding an additional science or nature study.)

LIVING STORIES& POETRY

Classic fairy tales, nursery rhymes, poetry, hymns, and Old Testament Bible stories invite your child into a world of wonder and awe. Through listening, conversation, recitation, and hands-on creativity, children encounter courage, kindness, temptation, sacrifice, and redemption—giving them language and stories that help shape the way they understand what is true, good, and beautiful.

FAITH, VIRTUE & HABITS FOR LIFE

Scripture, catechism*, Bible reading, manners, hygiene, and one carefully chosen virtue each term help faith become part of your family’s everyday rhythm. Rather than rushing from one character lesson to the next, your child has time to dwell on kindness, self-control, and faithfulness and begin practicing these ideas within family life and relationships.

*The catechisms summarize foundational, orthodox Christian beliefs and are adapted from lessons in The Ology. Please review the free Teacher’s Guide to preview every catechism included in the program.

CREATION SCIENCE & HANDS-ON DISCOVERY

A slow journey through the seven days of biblical Creation introduces your child to botany, zoology, marine biology, astronomy, physics, anatomy, and more. Living readings, memorable recitations, scientific vocabulary, and a menu of hands-on activities help your child understand God’s world while growing in observation, curiosity, and wonder.

ART, MUSIC & FOUNDATIONAL LEARNING

Your child will become familiar with great artists, composers, orchestral instruments, and the seven elements of art through thoughtful observation and hands-on exploration. Art projects and meaningful handicrafts alternate throughout the year, while the Kindergarten Morning Binder and memory work gently reinforce letters, sounds, counting, shapes, money, calendar skills, and other early foundations.

Parents: Add a formal phonics and math curriculum at your child’s level upon readiness.

Love this curriculum!

I cannot say enough how much my kids and I love this curriculum! We completed the preschool program last year and purchased the kindergarten program to start in the fall. We love the beautiful artwork throughout, the gentle pace, and the variety of subjects included.

Ideal

This is perfect for our family. Soothing, enjoyable, relaxed, but also comprehensive and builds a great moral foundation. We have truly enjoyed the Primer for two years. Moving into Sequence 1 next! So grateful to have found this curriculum right off bat in our homeschool journey❤️

Homeschool Mom

I recommend this bundle to all the moms looking for an easy, fulfilling and flexible curriculum to use with multiple ages! It really makes you feel like you’re doing more than just getting through the basics of homeschool! Being new to homeschooling, this curriculum is such a confidence booster!

INCREDIBLE 😍

This curriculum does a beautiful job creating classical + biblical approach to learning yet does it such a way that is so much fun to teach and my kids really enjoy learning. I have two boys ages 5 and 4. This curriculum makes it so easy to teach both of them at the same time. If you're on the fence, purchase it you will not regret it!
