“Nourish a child daily with loving, right, and noble ideas...
which may bear fruit in his life.”
--Charlotte Mason, 1842-1923

Charlotte Mason, an innovative educator, lived most of her life in Ambleside, England. This painting is a scene near Ambleside. I like to think that Charlotte passed this quaint bridge often as she went on daily outings in the countryside to enjoy nature.

Charlotte’s approach to education echoes this scene; it can be a peaceful, rewarding educational experience. I encourage you to set the example by doing copy work, by making entries into your personal book of centuries, by reading and writing a narration, by painting in your nature journal, and in general continuing your education alongside.
