Created by a homeschooling mother of three, a Child Life Specialist, Early Childhood Intervention specialist, specialist in child development, and a kid lit author, Backyard Academy is dedicated to providing fun and educational resources for children of multiple developmental stages. Our approach is designed to fit kids of multiple ages and abilities. Whether your student(s) thrive in a bustling classroom or in a quiet homeschool environment (or anywhere in between!), our resources are designed to accommodate their individual style of learning. We believe in empowering every child to learn in a way that works best for them and reject the notion of a one-size-fits-all learning experience.
