Reasons I love MFW (edited from MFW‘s web site):

 *Recognizes the Bible, God's truth, to be the foundation of wisdom and education.

*Utilizes hands-on, unit studies with daily lesson plans that are easy-to-teach.

*Enables families and multi-age groups to learn together.

*Combines the best of Charlotte Mason's ideas and classical education with a Biblical   worldview, an international focus and observations of how children learn.

*Provides easy-to-teach, integrated curriculum that is enjoyable, academically strong, and focused on character development.

*Is committed to the Lord of All, who tenderly searches for people from every tribe and language. A portion of the profits helps support mission work overseas, especially Bible translation projects.
