What is Christmas School?
It’s an open-and-go program for December, based on whole-family read-alouds.
The Christmas School Guide will walk you through Read-Aloud Revival’s relaxed, bookish book club experience to provide a rich and nourishing education for your kids of all ages.
Can I see sample pages?
How does Christmas School work?
It’s open-and-go. All you need to do is download the Christmas School Guide PDF and get your hands on the books.
You’ll also have access to a website page, letting you use Christmas School on the go.
It’s for all ages? Really?
Yep, really! If there’s ever a time for whole-family learning, it’s Christmas time.
We’ve included ideas across the curriculum, including:
~ Literature & language arts
~ Grammar
~ Writing
~ Copywork
~ Art
~ History
~ Science/nature study
~ Picture study
~ Music
~ Recipes
. . . and more.
Just keep on with your regular math program—we’ll provide the rest.
These are picture books. Will this work with my older kids?
Yes! Picture books are a unique art form that offer elevated language and visuals and can be appreciated at all ages. Watch one of our Looking Closely videos and we think you’ll see what we mean. 😉 We also suggest enjoying three classic Christmas short stories for teens/high schoolers, included with this year’s Christmas School program.
Where do I get the books?
You can get the books from your local library, or purchase them for your permanent collection.
When does it start?
Your Christmas School Guide will be available for download on October 31.
You can use Christmas School anytime between October 31 and January 16.
You’ll have access to all Christmas School 2025 resources through January 16, 2026. RAR Premium Members retain access to Christmas School year-round.
Is Christmas School religious?
Yes. We’re pretty focused on the true reason for the season: the birth of our Lord Jesus. Christmas School includes religious Christmas carols and Scripture readings.
That said, many non-Christian families use and enjoy Christmas School as well.
Will I need to buy a bunch of supplies?
Nope. You probably have most of what you need already. We suggest taking a few minutes each weekend to glance over the recipe, activities, and associated supply lists so you’re prepared for the week ahead.
Remember that Christmas School is a menu, so you can pick-and-choose what works for you. If you’re unable to get supplies for any particular activity, simply choose a different one.
What if I want to join RAR Premium after buying Christmas School?
You can apply your purchase of Christmas School to an RAR Premium quarterly or annual membership through December 16, 2025.
To do so, simply head to the RAR Premium registration page, log in, and sign up. Your discount will be automatically applied.
(P.S. This offer expires December 17, 2025)
Can I share Christmas School with a friend or two?
Each Christmas School Guide is for single household use only. While we highly encourage you to do Christmas School activities with friends, please make sure every participating family has purchased their own Christmas School Guide and login.
To use Christmas School with a co-op license, you must purchase a renewable RAR Premium membership instead of the separate Christmas School option.
If it’s not a good fit for us, can I get my money back?
Yes! If Christmas School is not a good fit for your family, we offer refunds within 24 hours of your purchase. Due to the digital nature of this product we are not able to offer refunds outside of the 24-hour timeframe. However, if you purchase an RAR Membership, you have 14 days to request a refund. Thanks so much for your understanding!
Can I still get previous years' Christmas School Guides?
Yep! RAR Premium members have access to all of our previous Christmas Schools. Click here to join if you aren’t a member yet.
Will there be a Black Friday sale?
Nope! Rest assured you're getting the best deal possible. That way you can make your purchase whenever it works best for you.
If I sign up for a month of RAR Premium, will I get Christmas School?
Indeed, you will!
Just remember that you'll want to remain a member of RAR Premium until you're finished using Christmas School (and watching all the videos, etc) because you'll lose access to it when you cancel.
(Pssst… Have you SEEN what we have coming up in RAR Premium in the new year? You'll likely want to stick around anyway. 😉)
