Harmony Fine Arts

Harmony Fine Arts describes their program as the art and music appreciation program for busy people. They have done all the research and organizing so that you can simply follow their lesson plans and offer a great program for your children.

Our TOS reviewer said, "I've read Charlotte Mason's thoughts on picture study and composer study, but still felt helpless to implement them. Harmony Fine Arts makes it so simple to use Charlotte Mason's ideas and organizes them in a classical education style. Harmony Fine Arts includes information for free resources whenever possible and Barbara has a
blog where she shares what her children are doing and further insights of how to approach nature study, art and music. She is a rare gem among homeschoolers as she not only has done the groundwork with her children, but she shares the fruits of their experience in a way that will equip other homeschoolers to reach their goals in art and music."

This little e-Book is packed with great ideas and advice to get your children writing! You will find the free e-Book HERE.

*************************************************************
The Trinity Foundation's Fourth Annual Christian Worldview Essay Contest is underway. The topic book for the Contest this year is Freedom and Capitalism: Essays on Christian Politics and Economics by John W. Robbins. This is a collection of essays that demonstrates the Biblical foundation for liberty --  both in politics and in economics.
In our society today, we have abdicated our Biblical responsibilities and have let the government take more and more of our liberties away, often with our consent. Freedom and Capitalism is a reminder that we are to conform all our thinking, including our thinking on government and economics, to the written revelation of God in the Bible.
 
The Essay Contest is open to those 17 to 23 years of age. Cash prizes are awarded for the top three essays  --  $3,000 for first prize, $2,000 for second, and $1,000 for third. The complete rules and entry form may be found at our website or by clicking on the links. If you are eligible, please enter the contest. If you are too old, please urge your children and grandchildren to enter.
