GOODBYE GUILT. HELLO WONDER.
You Can Lead Your Children Into the Beauty of Nature
Short, doable Brush drawing + Nature Study Lessons for the whole family
THERE IS HOPE
Easy steps. Lasting habits. Real connection.
And nature study always ends up last.
You worry…
-
I want to get outside with the kids, but our days are already so full.
-
I don’t even know where to start — I never learned this myself.
-
What if they ask questions I can’t answer?
-
I can barely draw a stick figure… how can I teach brush drawing?
You’re not alone.
Many homeschool moms long for that quiet, meaningful rhythm of nature and art… but it always feels just out of reach. Life is messy. Schedules are packed. And the idea of adding one more thing — especially something that feels so unfamiliar — is overwhelming.
But what if it didn’t have to be that way?

NICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Joy Cherrick
Â
I've spent many years doing nature study with my children in co-ops and at home. My greatest frustration was that my children didn't have the tools to create nature journals they could be proud of. In addition, once we started to learn the names of things, I wanted them to have more opportunities to grow in how they see creation - not just to learn the names, but to learn more about God Himself and how he reveals himself through creation. This course is what I wish I would have had to help us grow as naturalists and artists. I know you are going to love it!
