NurtureStore’s Play Academy helps parents lead a relaxed and happy homeschool.
You’ll have a full programme of teaching units, with plenty of choice and variety.
One activity a day, that all your children can do together.
All planned for you and ready to go!
I’m Cathy James, an education expert with over 25 years experience in schools, homeschool, early years settings and workplace training. I know what it’s like to be an overwhelmed homeschool mum looking for the right curriculum for my children and so I’ve made one for your family.
NurtureStore’s Play Academy is the best homeschool curriculum for families because it’s all planned for you, works for mixed ages, and children LOVE it.
Here’s what you get with your Play Academy membership:
You’ll have a wide range of Homeschool Units you can use to deliver lessons easily that your children will love.
Our Units cover a wide range of topics, so there’s plenty to choose from and a broad range of learning going on. Your children will love the making, playing, doing, cooking, investigating, storytelling, imagining, and laughing, while you can be confident they are also developing their math, literacy, science, fine motor skills, creativity, critical thinking, empathy, team work, self-confidence, multicultural awareness, diversity awareness, goal setting and gratitude.
Each unit contains five days of learning, all carefully created to build skills and knowledge. The lessons are easy for you to teach and your children will love the hands-on activities. One activity a day means the programme is manageable for you and them, and gives plenty of space in your week for reading, playing and everyday life.
Each unit is nicely presented. You’ll be clear on how to deliver the lessons: you’ll have materials lists and step-by-step instructions for how to lead the activities and full-colour photographs will guide you.
You can start anywhere in the year and with any unit. The Play Academy is designed to be flexible. No child will ‘fall behind’ or ‘miss out’ because children are learning all the time, through everything they do. My cross-curricular programme of hands-on learning builds deep and wide knowledge and skills as children learn by doing. Over the year they will benefit from a balanced and engaging programme that incorporates a full complement of subjects.
Choose from seasonal Units, such as Autumn Equinox, Space Week, World Book Day, and Halloween which fit with particular times of the year and other units such as Colour, Fairies, Fractions and Forest School can be done anytime.
You can decide which order to do the units, so the Play Academy fits perfectly with your family’s needs. Each unit covers five days, with one activity each day. You can do every week in sequence or skip, extend or swap any day/week to suit your family. Whatever works for your needs.
You can choose whether to print the lessons or use them on screen. NurtureStore’s Play Academy is ad-free, giving you a calm and quiet set of resources to show your children. If you prefer to have things printed off, you’ll find each unit is a PDF, so it’s super easy for you to print the whole unit, selected pages or just the printables that accompany the unit.
NurtureStore’s Play Academy is NOT for you if you want:
:: a screen-based curriculum that you plug your children into because in the Play Academy children learn through doing, making, and playing
:: targets and testing your children have to pass before moving on to the next level because in our programme children are learning at their level, at their pace, and there’s no failure because children are learning all the time
:: your children to sit still and be quiet all day because the Play Academy is all about chatting, making things, heading outdoors, asking questions and laughing

How it used to be:
Get that feeling of dread on a Sunday when you remember you haven’t got anything planned for the week, trawl Pinterest and YouTube trying to find something suitable, buy an expensive curriculum and find your kids hate it, download a printable and another and another and drown in paper while you try and put together a lesson plan that works, spend half an hour every day logging in to five different sites, worry you’re not teaching the right things, get constantly pulled in different directions as each child is following a different program, feel your heart break a little watching your kids be so bored with their lessons, see your kids start to switch off and lose their love of learning, feel constantly overwhelmed by all the choices, always have that nagging doubt of it not being good enough …
And now you have NurtureStore’s Play Academy and homeschool is all sorted!
Join hundreds of other families and make your homeschool so much easier and happier.
