The Best CM Podcast!
I have dabbled in all of the CM podcasts, and I think this is the best one! It’s free of womens-chatter that I don’t usually care for. Instead, it’s true CM material through and through, and whether it’s a longer or shorter episode, I’m always encouraged and rejuvenated to tackle education according to Mason’s philosophy after listening.

So inspiring
This podcast is incredibly inspiring for me as a homeschool mother. I love that it stretches me because it requires attention to appreciate the flood of new information, but at the same time it all feels so familiar. I feel like I grow every time I listen to an episode, and I always find listening to be a pleasant experience.

CM Treasure Trove
Invaluable CM Resource! I don't know how you can implement an authentic CM Education without this resource. Art Middlekauff's research and the work of the entire CMP team are a much needed contribution to the current CM community... My only humble recommendation: Please bring back the original person's voice who used to do the intro :)

Hit or miss
Some episodes are fantastic and Inspiring, others make you feel like you can’t possibly implement an “authentic” Charlotte Mason education, so why even try.

Treasure trove of all things Charlotte Mason
I am so thrilled about this podcast! One of my favorite blogs on Charlotte Mason has now become an audio blog. The content is rich, and Charlotte Mason Poetry is making available many Parents' Review articles that are real gems. This podcast is real food for thought, offering the philosophy of CM as well as practical help in applying the CM method in our everyday homeschools. Inspiring for the heart and stimulating for the mind!

Dig deeper into the Charlotte Mason philosophy
I have been listening to the podcast " a delectable education " for a while. I found this podcast while searching more info about sloyd. This is a perfect complement to the more general overview provided on ADE. This podcast provides readings of articles and extracts of people who have studied the Charlotte Mason philosophy of education. Every episode I have listened to so far provided food for thought and lots to think about. This is all about the big picture, the spiritual meaning and the deep philosophical motivations to pursue miss Mason 's way to bring up children. I am very grateful to have found it, as a beginner I am still focused on the " how", even if I know my own " why" it is such an uplifting confirmation to hear those articles. And I love the podcast format which I can bring out while gardening with the kids running outdoors.

I can now listen while driving or doing laundry when reading wasn't always possible.

- Charlotte Mason and the Child Who Loves To LearnWhich seems more interesting to you? Reading stories of Greek and Roman heroes, or sitting in a dim classroom all day memorizing historical dates? When I was little, my schoolwork looked like reading books and spending time out in nature. Many of us have childhood memories of schoolwork that looks like a blank classroom and … The post Charlotte Mason and the Child Who Loves To Learn first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Mother CultureEditor’s Note: By Dean and Karen Andreola In an episode of Wodehouse’s humorous stories of Wooster and Jeeves, the servant Jeeves ruefully remarks to his hapless master that he is retiring to bed “with an improving book.” Ha. Not likely. Jeeves is good at pulling the wool over the eyes of Bertie Wooster. “An improving … The post Mother Culture first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Children Under SixEditor’s Note by Richele Baburina In 1942, the hundred-year anniversary of Charlotte Mason’s birth, a special Centenary edition of The Parents’ Review was published to commemorate all she had done for education as a life. The writers were varied. From former Parents’ Union School students to members of the royalty, each gave thanks to the woman who … The post Children Under Six first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Education And ResponsibilityEditor’s Note: Last week we shared Dr. R. Bryce Gibson’s February 1915 article “Education and Personality.” Gibson was a professor in Melbourne, Australia who was intrigued by Charlotte Mason’s reflections on the philosophy of Rudolf Eucken.

- Education And PersonalityEditor’s Note: In Charlotte Mason’s day, The Parents’ Review reached the ends of the earth — or at least, the ends of the English-speaking earth. Charlotte Mason’s fascinating June 1914 article “Trop de Zèle” was no exception, and it quickly reached the great island continent of Australia. Dr. R. Bryce Gibson was a Professor of … The post Education And Personality first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Introducing Rudolf EuckenEditor’s Note: In 2009, Dr. Benjamin Bernier completed his groundbreaking book entitled Education for the Kingdom: An Exploration of the Religious Foundation of Charlotte Mason’s Educational Philosophy. The book remains the finest exposition in print of the theological origin and basis of the Charlotte Mason method. In his research, Bernier explored many documents that had … The post Introducing Rudolf Eucken first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- The Mother Who Teaches Her Own ChildrenEditor’s Note: On June 18, 1926, Henrietta Franklin welcomed parents and teachers to the 28th Annual PNEU Conference in Caxton Hall, Westminster. She “plunged” her audience “directly into the pith and marrow” of the PNEU enterprise with an address entitled “Miss Mason’s Contribution to Educational Thought.” She insisted that while Mason’s fresh ideas had “changed … The post The Mother Who Teaches Her Own Children first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0

- Letters from MothersWe live in a world where homeschool families are often far away from relatives. They do all the work of teaching themselves, without tutors or help. A governess? Just a relic of the past! Can Charlotte Mason’s volumes speak to these kinds of families? Families like ours? In 1924, Elsie Kitching reached out to mothers … The post Letters from Mothers first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- After Fifty YearsEditor’s Note: Our fifth article in the Elsie Kitching Series brings us to 1936.

- Home Education Under SixEditor’s Note, by Haley Struecker Miss Ellen A. Parish was known in Ambleside as a woman of constant bravery, and such a reputation must have befitted her, for in January of 1923, the will of Miss Charlotte Mason named her “Principal of the House of Education for life.” Ms. Essex Cholmondeley, biographer of Miss Mason, … The post Home Education Under Six first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Too Wide A MeshEditor’s Note: On January 5, 1927, a PNEU Meeting was held in London in conjunction with the Conference of Educational Associations.

- Two or Three WitnessesEditor’s Note: The December 1926 issue of The Parents’ Review was subtitled “Of Little Children” and said that “This number has been prepared by special request.”[1] The issue was to contain several articles and poems about children, but the editor also wanted to include first-hand advice from actual mothers who had been trained at the … The post Two or Three Witnesses first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- A Great InheritanceEditor’s Note, by Jennifer Talsma On April 14, 1925, Miss Elsie Kitching delivered the opening address to “The Parent’s Union School Gathering at Canterbury,” an event that fulfilled a wish Charlotte Mason had expressed in 1910, when, during a trip to that old city, she told Miss Kitching “What a wonderful place this would be … The post A Great Inheritance first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- A Code of Education in the GospelsSeveral years ago, a good friend of mine told me that he had been asked by his church to teach a class for some of the children. He had never done anything like this before, so he was not sure what to do or what to expect, but he said he would do it anyway. … The post A Code of Education in the Gospels first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Notes and Queries by Elsie KitchingEditor’s Note: The closing pages of the very first Parents’ Review in 1890 contained a short section entitled “Notes and Queries.” Charlotte Mason introduced it as follows: We have received some valuable “Notes,” but do not publish all in this number, partly, that we may first take an opportunity to make clear to our readers … The post Notes and Queries by Elsie Kitching first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- The Place of Science in the Education of ChildrenEditor’s Note, by Dawn Rhymer On the plane bound for the Living Education Retreat, I was trying to read through several Parents’ Review articles on science, but my eyes grew heavy. I shook my head to stay awake and slid the sleep-inducing articles to the bottom of the stack, hoping the next one would capture … The post The Place of Science in the Education of Children first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Moral TrainingEditor’s Note: The December 30, 1955 issue of The Times included an obituary with the title “Disciple of Charlotte Mason.” The article surveyed the life of a woman who had died two days before: She took the intermediate examination in Arts at London University in 1893, but instead of proceeding to a degree she joined … The post Moral Training first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Two Educational IdealsEditor’s Note: The Fourteenth Annual PNEU Conference was held in July 1910 in London.

- The Story of Formation of Character1906 was a big year for Charlotte Mason. It’s the year that she completed the Home Education Series! In that fateful year Mason published the fifth and final volume of the series, entitled Some Studies in the Formation of Character. Now you may correct me and say that there are actually six volumes in the … The post The Story of Formation of Character first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Of Such Is the KingdomEditor’s Note: When the reader of Charlotte Mason’s first volume has reached only the twelfth page, he or she is struck by Mason’s bold hermeneutical stance: It is worth while for parents to ponder every utterance in the Gospels about the children, divesting themselves of the notion that these sayings belong, in the first place, … The post Of Such Is the Kingdom first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Critical Thinking Through NarrationThe following thought exercise is based on a true story. Imagine that you get a call from your oldest daughter who has just started her first semester at college.

Naturally you’re excited to hear from her: “Well, how … The post Critical Thinking Through Narration first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Letter From a ScientistEditor’s Note: The ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus famously wrote: God … either wishes to take away evils, and is unable; or He is able, and is unwilling; or He is neither willing nor able, or He is both willing and able… if He is both willing and able, which alone is suitable to God, from … The post Letter From a Scientist first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Using Technology WellIn most schools today, technology is king. All students are given tablets and everyone learns to code. We are told that this approach gives kids an advantage. It helps them thrive in the information age. It prepares them for a future that is becoming more and more digital every day. Other schools reach back to … The post Using Technology Well first appeared on Charlotte Mason Poetry.0 comments0
- Self-EducationEditor’s Note: In May of 1913, the PNEU held their 17th annual conference at Caxton Hall in London. It was a fitting venue for a gathering of educational reformers; just four years prior it had hosted a major rally calling for women’s suffrage. The year 1913 was an important one for the PNEU.
