Originally published in 1904.
Preface to the third edition -- Some preliminary considerations -- Out of door life for the children -- Habit is ten natures -- Some habits of mind, some moral habits -- Lessons as instruments of education -- The will, the conscience, the divine life in the child.
"Home Education consists of six lectures by Charlotte Mason about the raising and educating of young children (up to the age of nine), for parents and teachers. She encourages us to spend a lot of time outdoors, immersed in nature and handling natural objects and collecting experiences on which to base the rest of their education. She discusses the use of training in good habits such as attention, thinking, imagining, remembering, performing tasks with perfect execution, obedience, and truthfulness, to replace undesirable tendencies in children (and the adults that they grow into). She details how lessons in various school subjects can be done using her approach. She concludes with remarks about the Will, the Conscience, and the Divine Life in the Child" --Cover, p. 4.
