Classics, Projects, and a Mentor's Heart: Heidi
A Family Project Guide Inspired by Johanna Spyri's Classic
By Heidi Christianson, Tatiana Fallon, and Tiffany Earl | Leadership Education Mentoring Institute
A complete, ready-to-use guide for reading Heidi aloud with your children, built to help you turn what they notice along the way into real conversation and the occasional finished project.
What's inside:
12 reading sessions covering all 23 chapters, each with vocabulary words, a reason to listen before you start, natural pausing points, and discussion questions for younger and older children
A guide to Socratic-style discussion. It covers how to ask an open question and then actually follow where your child's answer goes, instead of working down a list
Two printable Classic Bookmarks (a full version and a simplified one for younger children) for capturing questions, quotes, vocabulary, memorable characters, and SayGoBeDos as you read
A Family Quote Wall activity for collecting the lines your family doesn't want to forget
"Follow the Inklings" activities in every session: ten-minute, thirty-minute, and afternoon-length options tied to whatever your child is actually curious about that week
Dozens of project ideas organized by interest (mountains, animals, food, nature, characters, history, service, teaching), plus four larger multi-day projects for families who want to go deeper
Printable forms: a project planning sheet, a sharing-preparation sheet, and a session record to track your family's progress
"The Thinking Behind This," a chapter that explains the mentoring philosophy behind the guide, for parents who want the reasoning and not just the instructions
Who it's for: Homeschooling families, book-loving parents, and anyone who wants read-aloud time with Heidi to add up to something. No lesson plan or literature degree required, and you don't need a project picked out before you start.
Format: Instant digital download (PDF), designed to be printed and used again with each new classic in the series.
