What families are doing with the curriculum.
Sarah's co-op in Phoenix. The Klein family's ESA-funded year in Utah. Marie's three kids ages 5, 9, and 14 all doing the same Lesson Box. Here's what's actually happening in the kitchens of families running The Science of Formulating.
FAMILY STORIES
Three families on year one.
The Klein Family · Utah
Three kids ages 5, 9, and 14. Used Utah Fits All Scholarship to subscribe. 'My 14-year-old started a soap business after Month 2. My 5-year-old can identify essential oils by smell. That's the magic of three age tracks.'
Sarah's Phoenix Co-op · Arizona
Co-op leader for 12 families. Started with the Free Lesson Box. 'Five families subscribed after the first session. The lesson plan made me look like a teacher. Now we're three months in.'
Marie + Three Kids · Florida
Ages 5, 9, and 14 — and used FES-UA to cover the curriculum. 'One box. Three notebooks. All three kids learn the same chemistry at their level. I cried opening the first one.'

WHAT KIDS SAY
Quotes from the kids, not the parents.
Owen, 11 · Arkansas
I thought science would be worksheets. This is more like cooking but you have to explain it.
Aurelia, 7 · Utah
I made a soap. It's pink. The pH is good. That means it's safe for skin.
Marcus, 14 · Texas
I'm using the Month 8 distillation lesson for my high school chemistry portfolio.
Liv, 6 · Florida
My favorite was the lip balm one. It tasted like honey but you can't eat it.
