we did kindy this past year....the individual lessons are quite short in terms of time. At the end, we did 5 lessons per day/session (we had not started in Sept and wanted to finish in July) and it took anywhere for 40-60 minutes--but the books were longer and harder for DS

 

I was really satisfied with the program and the time it took. Wasn't too long, but DS learned a lot and didn't feel overwhelmed (and learned to read!)

We are using McRuffy K Phonics and spend about 20 minutes per lesson. We don't do everything listed in the teacher's manual though. I leave out the handwriting and spelling portions and other things I don't feel will benefit. It would take us a lot less time for each lesson, but dd tends to dawdle over the worksheets and take her time ;)

We've only done 5 lessons from the McRuffy science so far. It's pretty basic and gives a brief introduction to several areas of science. It's mostly activities and experiments so there's not a lot of info if the kids want to go more in depth on a topic. Dd has enjoyed the lessons so far and gets excited when I mention we're doing a science project. Overall, I think it's a fun, introductory science program for K. It's not something that I will continue after this year though because we plan to continue with HOD and will just do the science as scheduled in their guides. HTH!
