I enjoyed reading all the entries for this give away. Here are the posts that I was able to read.
Lea Edrosolan Santos What I love about the Charlotte Mason method is that it has been helping me and my family intentionally pursue a lifestyle of appreciating the beauty, truth and goodness that God has placed in the world—from literature, art, music, nature to people we are connected to and those He continually brings into our lives but most especially in one another. We’ve made very good memories out in the wild following birds and inside the coziness of our home reading books. For someone like me who can be a Type A, this way of homeschooling lets me relax—yes,even though it takes great effort to prepare a nourishing and enriching feast for learning! I also get to eat and savor what I put on the table, sit back, talk and have a sip of coffee by and by.
Tina Dom What I love about the CM Method is its high view of children- that they are created full persons, in the image of God. I also like the emphasis on presenting ideas, not merely facts, to the children; and imparting in them a sense of wonder.
inspiredandintentionalliving I love how the CM method is not just a way to educate your child but a way of life that is simple yet meaningful. Also, a lot of its principles are biblical which is quite important for us.
Jona Ferolino What I like the most about the Charlotte Mason method is how it recognizes that there is no separation between the intellectual and spiritual life of children. It encourages the child to be dependent on the Holy Spirit as his constant Helper in all knowledge and joys of life. At the same time, we must also strive to work in cooperation with the Holy Spirit in educating our children.
I also appreciate how Charlotte Mason positively influenced mothers to employ their education and training in their own homes as “the principal agent in the development of her child”. That the goal of female education is to prepare women to be better wives and mothers, which is also something I am very passionate about. She also taught that it is essential for mothers to still find time for themselves to continue their own living education, Mother Culture❤️
And this is perfect for someone like me who loves learning and discovering new things.
The list goes on.. And it just shows how I truly admire this great woman who was way beyond her time😍
Inna Alo-Tan What I love about Charlotte Mason is the firm belief that the child is a person and we must educate that whole person, not just his mind.
Jeyn Siervo De Real I love Charlotte Mason’s approach to education because its method is gentle, and educates the whole person rather than focus on one area – academics. The use of living books and read-alouds and teaching kids to appreciate art and poetry are some of the things we enjoy in our homeschool.
Romel Eve Marfa I love Charlotte Mason Method because of short, varied lessons and no busy work which gives more time outside and pursue what interests your child. It is also challenging because it engages their minds and exposes them to great thoughts and ideas.
AP Zamora What I like about the Charlotte Mason method: a different outlook/mindset in educating and raising up children. I love how she emphasized to secure a “quiet growing time” for them during their first six years. Instead of academics, she insisted that we focus on these most important things during these precious and fleeting years: habits, outdoor time and living books. All in the hope of preserving that sense of wonder in their eyes.
Lauren Sakuma What I love and excited to explore about homeschooling using Charlotte Mason method is the feast of literature-rich books we are going to immerse ourselves with and ART!
Pia David Peña I love the Charlotte Mason Method because it has so many gems that affect more than just “school time”!
Cesica Coloma Saavedra Super interested in living books. The flow and freedom it gives our family as we educate our children.

Monique Caparros-Florencio What I love about the CM method is that the children are taught to find and appreciate truth, goodness, and beauty.
Chermalyn Espiritu I was inspired because of the talk you gave at the solideo event. Really interested in the CM method.
Pauline Elipane What I like sbout CM: it nourishes the learner with a feast of ideas from living books and
addresses the need of the child as a whole person for truth, beauty, and goodnesdancingalmonds What I love about the CM method are the short but rich lessons 💖
jaydiazjr I like that a lot of the principles and practices are biblical. I like that it encourages a child to do nature studies and that it starts with sentence construction rather than the usual grammar lessons.
andreamiles I love the great books, the beautiful art & music. The respect that children are born persons!
Your words show how much CM’s method blessed your learning lifestyle! Hoping I can all give you a prize but I can only choose one. And it goes to Lea Santos 🙂 Congratulations! Will send you it to you soon! Enjoy!
