Give Your Kindergartner a Year of Wonder, and Give Yourself a Year of Confidence

Backyard and Beyond is for the homeschool mom who wants her child's first year of real learning to be rooted in God's creation, not a desk.

Backyard and Beyond turns the world outside your door into 20 guided field trips, building real kindergarten skills through observation, hands-on discovery, and exploration. With a biblical worldview woven into every unit, your child doesn't just learn about creation; they learn to see God's hand in it. Backyard and Beyond is open-and-go with minimal prep, so you can show up confident for one of the most important years you'll teach.

With Backyard and Beyond Kindergarten Curriculum Kit, children will:

Dive into a hands-on science and nature study

Learn social studies and real-world community awareness

Continue fine motor development through purposeful, engaging activity

Develop consistent early learning habits built through structured exploration

Be introduced to a biblical worldview woven into every unit, so faith is the framework, not an add-on

The Goal Isn't Just to Teach Your Child About God, It's to Train Them to See Him

The 20-unit curriculum covers a full kindergarten year. Most families work through a unit in 20–30 minutes, two to three times a week. A consistent rhythm without the pressure of a packed daily schedule.

Most kindergarten curriculums ask a five-year-old to sit still, watch, and repeat from a pile of textbooks. Backyard and Beyond is built around how five-year-olds actually learn.

Every lesson is built around observation, movement, and hands-on discovery rather than desk repetition because retention at this age happens through experience, not instruction. Skills are introduced and immediately reinforced through real-world moments, so your child understands what they’re learning.

Every unit includes biblical worldview prompts for family discussion, guiding your child to recognize God's order, creativity, and care in what they discover. Bible references are provided so you can read and discuss passages in the translation your family uses, making faith part of the learning, not a separate subject.

Why you’ll love it

  • A Complete Kindergarten Year, Mapped Out for You - 20 structured units give your child a rich, consistent learning experience and give you the confidence of knowing exactly what comes next, all year long.
  • Purposeful, Activity-Based Lesson Pages - Every lesson is built around doing, not just watching. Activities reinforce key kindergarten skills through observation, hands-on engagement, and real-world discovery.
  • 20 Guided Field Trips Built Into the Curriculum - Real-world learning experiences take your child outside and into the world, because the lessons they'll remember aren't the ones they sat through.
  • Open-and-Go Parent Guides - Clear, simple instructions mean you can teach confidently without hours of prep. Read it, follow it, and stay focused on your child, not the planning.
  • Faith Woven Into Every Lesson - Biblical worldview isn't a bonus activity or a closing prayer. It's the thread running through everything your child learns, training them to see God's hand in the world around them.

FAQs

  • Is Backyard & Beyond open-and-go?

    Yes. Most lessons can be started immediately, with minimal preparation.

  • How many copies should I purchase?

    One curriculum set per child is recommended. Children need their own materials to write, track progress, and fully engage with the activities.

  • What if we can’t visit every location?

    Units include options that work even if a location isn’t visited.

  • What Bible translation is used?

    Bible references are provided so families can use the translation they prefer.

  • What does this curriculum cover? Do I need anything else?

    Backyard & Beyond is designed to anchor your kindergarten year through hands-on learning and guided exploration.

    Families will still add:

    • A dedicated phonics program
    • A dedicated math program

  • What are the credentials of the Not Consumed team?

    The Not Consumed team exists for one purpose: to help your family grow in faith so you can live #NotConsumed. We are homeschool parents with over 220 years of combined homeschooling experience, advanced degrees in education and curriculum design, and a deep love for serving families well. Every Bible study, family resource, and homeschool curriculum we create is anchored in Scripture and made to be practical, clear, and easy to use, because we know your days are already full.

    We believe the best learning happens when families gather around God's Word together, so we create resources that work across ages and stages to make that time meaningful, approachable, and real.

  • What do you believe?

    I believe that the Bible is the absolute authority in matters of faith and practice. It's 100% true, with no exceptions or figurative sections. I believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of Scripture; in one God eternally existing in three Persons; in the creation of all things, including man, as the direct act of God; in eternally secure salvation by grace through faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the incarnation and virgin birth of Christ, and in His bodily resurrection; in the personal, bodily, premillennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ and His millennial reign on earth.

  • Is the curriculum accredited?

    Though schools can be accredited, there is not an accreditation program for curriculum.
