Dachelle is an educator and homeschool mom who knows the struggle of getting kids excited to read a book, especially the classics.

This is why she created Literary Adventures for Kids, a full language arts curriculum for preschool to high school that inspires kids to read through rabbit trails and a little bit of magic dust. She uses her over 20 years of experience as an educator in the traditional system to create courses that encourage critical thinking and are catalysts for big conversations.

Dachelle is also the owner of Hide The Chocolate, a blog about her adventures in homeschooling and parenting using a relaxed Charlotte Mason philosophy. You can often find her reading a good book (or even sometimes just an okay book) and enjoying a jar of Nutella — don’t judge. 😉

The Art of Raising Great Readers

We know that being a great reader is important. But being a great reader is more than just being able to read. We want our kids to: • do well in their studies, • understand what they are reading, • grasp the hidden meanings, • be able to test well on the ACT or SAT, and • be prepared for college-level classes with dense textbooks. So, how do we help our children to become great readers and boost reading comprehension? Join Dachelle McVey from Hide The Chocolate and Literary Adventures for Kids as she shares what makes up reading comprehension and how to help our children become great readers.

Add Enchantment to Your Homeschool through Literature

Using Charlotte Mason’s core principles, we’ll learn ways to add enchantment to your homeschool through poetry teatimes, rabbit trails, and a little magic dust. We’ll bring literature to life using living books and a little inspiration.

At Literary Adventures for Kids, we want your homeschool to be enchanting. Through the use of online book clubs, we help parents and students to dig deeper, go on rabbit trails, and add a little adventure, all while enjoying great literature.

Our courses are a full-language arts curriculum that has everything your student needs: grammar, spelling, vocabulary, rabbit trails, hands-on exploration, critical thinking, writing projects, and connections to literature.
