My daughter really enjoyed this book! She learned (and retained!) a lot. I will definitely use this again with my younger children. Be sure to check the publishers site for downloadable notebook pages!

We just finished with the first lesson and the first project and my kids loved it. They were so bored with our other science lessons and I was tired of searching for all the necessary stuff to go along with the projects. I would highly recommend this curriculum and get the recommended kit to go along with it. It's great.

So far my kids love this! I like it to. We learn so many wonderful things. I'm in awe of God's amazing creation! What a great break from the boring fill in the blank workbooks I made them do last year.

As not only a homeschooling mother, but as someone who was homeschooled herself, I must say I truly wish these books would have been around back when I was a child.
Not only do my children (4-9yrs old) ALL love this book, but I do as well. It is well written, simple enough even my 4 yr old enjoys reading, and is learning, yet solid and in-depth enough I am learning along with them. And best of all we are ALL enjoying it!
The free notebooking pages are great, and the yahoo group (where you can ask questions and view messages from other users as well as the author herself) is a valuable resource for the entire series.
My boys are already looking forward to the rest of the books, and I must admit so am I !!!
I plan to use them all, at least once, and most likely will revisit them at a later date with at least my younger two.
If you want a solid, and God honoring, basis for science on an elementary level this series is the best I have ever seen or heard about!

Excellent for family learning. Interesting for a wide range of ages. Experiments were such effective illustrations of the concepts being taught. Easy preparation for teacher. I appreciated that the book was a tribute to the Creator.

This was our first lower level Apologia Science book and we loved it! Jeanne Fulbright has created the perfect set of books to bring science alive for elementary students, and at the same time, as a parent, I have learned so much! We have ordered another one in the series and are eagerly anticipating starting it as soon as it arrives.

You can see that we are not alone in voicing our wonderful praise for Exploring Creation with Astronomy. My child's favorite section of the book, so far, is of the meteor, Kleopatra.
Fantastic Book!!!!!

I have been searching for an engaging, informative, accessible science curriculum for my 8 year old son, and I finally found it. We finished our first Astronomy lesson today and I am very pleased with the information in the book as well as the kit for the projects. I love projects, but detest running around looking for the little things we might need. It is a huge blessing to have everything at our fingertips. What a blast this learning thing is!

We are absolutely delighted with this book!! My children are so excited to study God's creation and to dig into the hands on projects! The Charlotte Mason approach is wonderful for the reluctant learner and the unit study approach has peeked my children's interest. It is such a blessing to have the kids excited about learning science! Thanks so much.

this was a perfect curriculum for my kid this year, she loved it

We are using Jeannie Fulbright's Exploring Creation with Astronomy right now with my 7 year old daughter and 4 year old boy. We are having so much fun. The children's notebooks are just precious. They are so excited about what they are learning. They even took their notebooks to Grandpa and Grandma's house to show them their work! The text is written in a "curl up on the couch with the children" style and it is so enjoyable. It is also scientifically sound. I love this curriculum. I like the fact that I don't have a lot of prep work to do. We purchased the science kit sold by Home Science Tools and it is so easy to just grab what we need a few minutes before lesson time. I highly recommend this curriculum.

Because I love teaching Science, I had just about every book written on Astronomy for children. Then I found Apologia! Now I need just the one. Jeannie Fulbright does a wonderfully thorough job explaining our Universe in great detail, yet on a level children understand. Her experiments, use of a journal and projects make the solar system come to life! I was amazed at how much I learned along with the children. This will be all you need to teach Astronomy.

Look no further than the fabulous elementary series from Apologia. The author does a remarkable job of providing experiements and projects that make understanding how our solar system works so easy. We are truly enjoying this book and you will, too.

My third grade son used this curriculum with his co-op group. Each week after class he told me all the things he had been learning and was fascinated by the material. The text was challenging for him yet simple enough to understand once his reading ability improved. By the end of the year he was reading the chapter on his own and writing a summary. The text is written to the student, so interest and understanding is high.
