This is excellent. This was my first try at homeschooling with my 3 kids and this curriculum was so easy to follow. It gave me a lot of confidence and even I learned something new, even though I am not new to this kind of topic. Highly recommend!
Kaitlyn Lutz –
What an amazing curriculum! Easy to follow and great information. I love teaching my kids about eating
to fuel their bodies and why we avoid certain ingredients. This was a great addition to our everyday conversation. Would definitely recommend!
Abby A. –
I love this curriculum! I think it would be a wonderful resource to have for late elementary school or middle school age children to use as a science, health, or nutrition unit. It has a ton of practical ways to demonstrate what your kids learn as well as prompts to write research papers. I will definitely be using this curriculum in the future!

Great help in teaching kids more about nutrition. So important to develop healthy habits at a young age. These lessons are informative for all ages. While teaching I learned some things i had not known. Would recommend!

We loved this curriculum! My 8 year old was very interested and learned so much (and so did I!). I am thankful to Earthley for writing and providing something like this to go along with other homeschool curriculum that we use. And this isn’t just for homeschoolers, in my opinion. I think anyone would learn from this!
