What is Hygge History?
Hygge roughly translates to “a feeling of cozy well-being” and it’s the inspiration for the four weeks (dispersed throughout the year) where we ask you to simply read literature with your child. No worksheets. No assignments. Just get cozy and enjoy this time reading together before returning to your formal studies the following week.
What are History Hops?
History Hops, found at the end of each chapter, send your child back in time to interact with people from the era they’ve just heard about in the chapter. History Hops engage your child’s imagination as they meet and learn from everyday folks, famous world leaders, and other characters from historic times.
