Shannon Leone’s Raising Children Raises Us manual and DVD show the importance of creating a loving, safe environment for children to develop and be nurtured.  After recently becoming parents, we realize the impact of these methods and how important it is to teach with love and compassion. She gives examples about how to teach and guide your children in home study and how to make learning fun. Shannon Leone not only lives by example, but her healthy family is living proof! She provides important tools to help your family grow into kind and empowered individuals. We encourage anyone who is interested in instilling important values and natural methods into the generations to come to read and watch Shannon Leone’s Raising Children Raises US.

Dear Shannon, I have a ten month old and I have always wanted to homeschool, at least during the early years if not longer. My husband wasn’t so sure. After watching your video, he is totally on board and excited about the possibilities. It has also inspired me to contact other homeschoolers in my area and I have even found that there are a few Waldorf style homeschoolers nearby.

I’m so grateful to you for this resource, you have definitely achieved your goal of inspiring and educating!

Thanks again,

Tiffany, Enrique and baby Sebastian

Raising Children Raises Us” is a beautiful, inspiring, unique film. It offers direct insight into creating a family life based around honouring and nurturing each individual child. Shannon Leone has SO much to share on this subject and does so eloquently, openly and with a great deal of loving care and attention. In a world where many families have schedules packed from morning until night and seem to live in a whirl of stress and tension, Shannon gently shows how to reconnect, slow down and truly appreciate our sacred family bonds. A rare treat to watch!

Shannon’s boys are beautiful examples of radiant, healthy, happy children being raised with respect, care and a great deal of love. I have never before seen two boys who are so generous and considerate with each other and those around them. They are potent examples of how effective Shannon’s information can help us raise compassionate, loving, connected beings.

Your DVD Raising Children Raises Us is PHENOMENAL, Shakaya, just like you and your family are!  How can I begin to express my love and appreciation for you and for having you in my life through your film…You all came to me in a moment when I needed it the most.

There is fairy dust around you and your family, Shakaya…you are so genuine and bold and beautiful… it is unreal…I watched your DVD 3 times already and every time I feel more blessed and grateful for being able to experience your gentle loving way of raising children and for everything else that is in the DVD …

I work from home and take care of my little  2-year-young fairy Tanya (her name means “fairy princess”) Since she

was born I become very interested in nutrition and raising her in a conscious loving way and I have never felt more sure that this is EXACTLY what I should do, more love, more inspiration and gratitude than now after watching your DVD! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing a day from the life of your family that will last for spirited and loving lifetimes of generations to come!!!

Your art is sooooo gentle and loving, my daughter’s room has become a very magical and spirited place with it on the walls. You inspire me SO much!!!

Long story short…I would LOVE to meet you some day, Shakaya, so I can catch few particles of the magic dust you so generously sprinkle all around you.

LOVE and sunshine smiles,

Sonya

I’ve just enjoyed your DVD (twice!) and am really excited about some of your ideas. My oldest (of 3) is in 1st grade at a public charter school, but it is very Waldorf-inspired and I am very happy with it. May I ask where to find things like the flags of the world matching game and the music flashcards etc? My son LOVES matching games and I think he’d really enjoy these. Plus I think his teacher would enjoy them too.

Thank you so much! You have really inspired me.
