One Month Update - Habitat Schoolhouse

Homeschool

Mar 20

May 1st will mark one month of Habitat Schoolhouse. I had no real plan for this venture when I started it, I just jumped in with both feet. Little did I know that my intention to provide family and friends with preschool activities for their toddlers would explode into a full-time business that is to the point where I'm considering hiring help.

I'm completely overwhelmed by the positive response I am receiving day in and day out. There are so many parents looking for good resources to help teach their children. I was anticipating that 20 to 30 people would show some interest in the curriculum over the span of about a week, instead, I received over 200 emails and counting in just two days! I am humbled and encouraged by the kind words from moms I've spoken to and gotten to know over these few short weeks.

THIS MONTH:

This month we sent out the first test of our lessons to see how they would be received. I am so excited about the response they have received and the positive feedback. Right now the goal for Habitat Schoolhouse is to finish 4 weeks worth of lessons to be sent out to the beautiful Mama's who have purchased our curriculum already. I am so excited that our curriculum is in 4 countries thus far and is being used in over 200 homes. It has already been included in blog posts, used in photo shoots and shared all over social media. I never thought doing something I love could be so exciting and rewarding.

Next month:

April 2nd is the scheduled date of our full launch. You have until the end of this month to receive %30 off the lessons, they will be going to full price of $47.00 in April. We are looking to do out first giveaway and photo shoot with local moms to help promote our curriculum. If you live in the Vancouver and Tri-cities (or even Fraser Valley) area and have a little one be sure to send me a picture of your babe and some little facts about him/her. We would love to contact you with more details of the photo shoot.

Long Term:

By June the entire 26-week curriculum will be done and we are looking at starting production and making it into a physical workbook and curriculum guide. Long term we are looking to include flashcards, supplementary lessons and a Nature for Toddlers Workbook.

I think that about sums up this little update. It has been three weeks thus far and has been so rewarding. I can't wait to get up every morning to start working on lessons and email all you mamas. (I even get up at 6:30 to start my day before my daughter wakes up... and I am NOT a morning person haha). I'm so happy that this business has developed organically and fits our life so perfectly. I look forward to building more lessons for you and getting to know each and every one of you.

Thanks,
Charlotte
