A Month of Science, Reading, Writing, Geography, Art… and a Holiday Mystery Adventure!

 

This Winter Mini Unit is designed for families who want a meaningful, academically-rich December without the overwhelm. Everything is done for you — daily lessons, hands-on activities, art, literacy, poetry, experiments, handwriting, social-emotional learning, and a full 21-day Holiday Mystery Calendar your child will beg to open each day.

 

For only $29, you receive two complete books:

 

A magical month of science, reading, writing, and winter wonder.
Families want December to feel meaningful — not chaotic. You want real learning without the pressure of planning. The Story Weavers Mini Winter Unit gives you exactly that: a complete, multi-subject December curriculum that sparks curiosity, deepens knowledge, and brings your family closer together.

Inside the Mini Winter Unit, your child explores 16 beautifully structured chapters:
From the birth of the universe to the tilt of Earth’s axis… from the way snowflakes form to the physics of freezing and melting… from the Nutcracker’s history to the mystery of long winter nights… every lesson is crafted to make winter come alive through science, storytelling, and hands-on discovery.

Your child will read poetry from Emily Brontë and Shakespeare, write about winter traditions, build Earth-orbit models, map shadows across the day, explore temperature shifts, experiment with ice and insulation, analyze art from Japanese and German masters, and debate big scientific ideas.

This unit covers:
• Science (Earth science, physics, astronomy, temperature, solstice)
• Reading comprehension & literature
• Writing and creative projects
• Spelling, vocabulary, and memory work
• Social-emotional discussions
• Art appreciation and analysis
• Hands-on STEM experiments
• Geography and map orientation
• Daily handwriting practice

The full curriculum is 153 pages and designed for children K–8 to learn together.

 

Plus: The Mystery Holiday Calendar
Your download also includes Theft on the Solstice Express, a 21-day mystery your child solves through daily clues. Each envelope reveals new evidence: witness statements, burnt note fragments, maps, footprints, interviews, lost keys, and hidden motives. It’s December’s version of an Advent Calendar — but filled with reading, logic, deduction, and excitement.

Everything is print-ready, open-and-go, and created to make your December academically rich and emotionally meaningful.

All of this for only $29.

 

 

 

Why parents love this set:

It’s rigorous. It’s magical. It turns December into the most meaningful learning month of the year.
And at only $29, it’s a curriculum + Advent Calendar + science lab + literature unit + mystery game all in one.

This is the kind of unit that creates memories.
