WinterPromise started as an idea. An idea that parents could enjoy all the benefits of the best of all homeschooling approaches, with little to none of the drawbacks. Working from the idea that literature communicates powerfully to young minds, we developed a curriculum that is strongly literature-based. This helps us offer to parents the opportunity to do less teaching and more "learning together" with their children. This "Learning Together" method has the additional benefit of requiring almost no preparation for the parent, preserving as many moments as possible for "face-to-face" time with their children. These living, wonderful books were able to capture the imagination of children, turn them into better, curious readers, and help them to remember historical detail in a way nothing else would. In addition, we chose books, especially for our younger learners, that drew them in visually first. The graphic approach of these books also helped include kinesthetic learners, as they are...

Hi, my name is Heather and I live in Bellflower, Calif. I have been working at home for 6-1/2 years as an editor. Two and a half years ago I had our son and then I had a daughter nearly seven months ago. When I started working from home in 1999, I thought it was only going to be temporary. My company had just folded abruptly and several people from that company decided to try their hand at operating a publishing company. They were only going to publish two magazines to begin with. However, that two turned into eight within the first six months of publishing. Consequently, I had to scramble those first few months to get my computer running up to par, get an office established (I was living and working in one 10'x15' for the first six months), and learn how to do the job I was doing, since I had never had that much responsibility in my career. It was a steep learning curve. I found it hard to work from home for the first year and a half. Starting up a new company and working out the bugs... See less
