I’ve gathered in one spot my favorite resources for living a Charlotte Mason lifestyle.  These are not limited to homeschooling, because Charlotte Mason did not limit her recommendations to education only.

Original Charlotte Mason Works

It goes without saying that Charlotte Mason’s own volumes are top on my list.  They can be purchased through Living Book Press and Simply Charlotte Mason

If you want to discuss in an inclusive group with knowledgeable leaders, where all faiths are welcome, The Charlotte Mason Plenary is excellent.

Books that support an inclusive Charlotte Mason lifestyle

  • Simplicity Parenting by Kim John Payne
  • Field Guide to the Familiar by Gale Lawrence
  • Coyote’s Guide to Connecting with Nature (available on Amazon, or at Wilderness Awareness School for international orders)
  • Laws’ Guide to Nature Drawing and Journaling by John Muir Laws
  • Keeping a Nature Journal by Claire Walker Leslie
  • The Living Page by Laurie Bestvater
  • Heaven on Earth by Sharifa Oppenheimer
  • What the Robin Knows and Animal Tracking Basics by Jon Young

Music

Legends of the Staff of Musique teaches musicality using the voice as an instrument.  It uses an ongoing story, weekly lessons, and is written to the homeschooling parent who has little to no background in music theory.

Living Music from the Heart teaches music theory using the penny whistle.

We use and love both Legends of the Staff and Living Music from the Heart.
