About Our Seasonal Book Seeds Series

Using inspiration from beautiful and captivating children's literature selections, you and your child will investigate nature-based S.T.E.A.M. concepts, complete nature journaling activities, prepare delicious recipes, and celebrate the magic of words.

Book Seeds By Blossom & Root can be used as a stand-alone curriculum for the young child (ages 2 to 5), as a curriculum base when combined with the math and phonics programs of your choice for the early elementary learner (ages 6 to 8), or as a fun add-on to your existing curriculum. It can be used with one child, with children of multiple ages, in ECE and elementary classrooms, or for non-homeschooling families who simply want to enjoy books, S.T.E.A.M. activities, and nature study together. (Co-ops and classrooms, please email me regarding terms first: kristina@blossomandroot.com.) They also make a great compliment for families using Blossom and Root Early Years, Kindergarten, or Elementary curricula.

To use Book Seeds By Blossom & Root, simply read the book selection (for this issue: Sun Bread by Elisa Kleven) as many times as you like, and complete the activities in the order and schedule that works best for your family. Most families complete the activities in a single issue of Book Seeds over a two-week period, but this can take as much or as little time as you like.

Frequently Asked Questions:

1) Is this a secular resource?

Yes! Our program is 100% completely secular. However, it can also be easily incorporated into a Christian homeschool by adding your own bible study. However, you may wish to screen the content prior to using it, as our Book Seeds issues reflect a secular point of view when it comes to science.

2) Will this product be mailed to me?

No. Our product is a digital download and will be delivered to you as soon as your payment is processed. You can send it to a local print shop to be printed and bound, or keep it on a tablet or computer for reference. (We recommend always keeping a copy on your computer or tablet, as there are links to videos in most of the issues.)

3) Can I print out multiple copies?

Your purchase is for your family alone. Feel free to make as many copies as you like for your own family. If you would like to use activities from Book Seeds by Blossom & Root for a co-op, please contact Kristina at blossomandroot@gmail.com for permission first. Book Seeds by Blossom and Root may not be resold (at curriculum fairs, online, or anywhere else.)

4) How long will it take to do this curriculum each day?

You may go at whatever pace suits your needs. A single Book Seeds issue takes most families about two weeks to complete, spending around 30 minutes per day on an activity.

5) Are there any worksheets or workbooks included? Do Book Seeds come with the book they are inspired by?

Some issues include an occasional worksheet to track discoveries. You will need to purchase or borrow the book (for this issue, Sun Bread by Alvin Elisa Kleven) before beginning, as it is not included in this purchase. You are also welcome to use an alternative book on the same topic. This purchase is ONLY for a single issue of a Book Seed magazine full of activities inspired by a children's book.

6) Are there any exchanges or refunds?

No. All sales are final. Due to the digital nature of our product, there are no exchanges or refunds. Please consider carefully if this is a good fit for your child prior to purchase.

7) Can I get a sample first?

Absolutely! If you would like a free sample, please go to https://blossomandroot.com/book-seeds-by-blossom-and-root-coming-soon/ and you can download an entire issue, free of charge.

You are welcome to use the printing company of your choice, if you would like to have a physical copy. There are several online companies that cater to homeschoolers, as well as local print shops and "big box office store" printing services available. You may, of course, print at home if you prefer, or use our resources digitally. Apps like Notability are great for marking up parent guides and notebooks for digital users.
