Yes, because I think it encapsulates each grade fairly well – what it would look like in school and at home..Of course, if you have very limited funds, you may prefer to get the Kindergarten book instead.
Sincerely,

Do you recommend getting the Curriculum Overview even if I haven’t yet decided to use Christopherus? My son is 4.5 and we’re doing an eclectic mix of Waldorf and Montessori. I have a limited budget, but if this book is good in and of itself I might be tempted to get it.

Hi Gwen, I did a review of the Christopherus Kindy book, the drawing book, and Joyful Movement all on this site – just use the search engine and those should come up….And fair disclosure, I am independent but I am one of the co-moderators on the Christopherus Waldorf At Home forum.
Hope that is helpful to you and many, many blessings,
Carrie

You know, sometimes I think you are reading my mind! I was just in the middle of an email discussion with another homeschooling mamma who has used this book in the past. I was on the fence about whether or not this resource was right for us. Now I know! Thank-you!

Any advice about the other Christopherus resources? I’d be particularly interested in a review about the Kindy/young child books they offer. And, yes, I plan to do a consultation with Donna or her staff, but an outside review is always helpful.

Thank you so much for this post. I have been so torn on which way to go with our homeschooling. I was trying to figure out which curriculum/planning guide would be best and your post really made things clear for me. finally!
