I love finding fun things to strew around the house for my kids to find and entertain themselves with. New card games, books, art supplies–these are all great ideas. But…
If you’ve been homeschooling for a while, you’ve probably gotten the question, What’s one thing you wish you would have known when you started homeschooling? Well, here’s mine, as of about…
There’s a high schooler in our homeschool. I’m not sure how I feel about it. It’s been altogether too fast. I can remember vividly how quickly my high school years…
A homeschool lifestyle routine is not something you think about when you first begin homeschooling. Your lifestyle doesn’t seem to look very much different than everyone else’s. But as friends’…
My boys are super into computers and how they work. Kids coding has become a huge interest these last few years. But the resources aren’t as easy to find as…
One of my biggest thrills is finding things that make two of my interests collide. This doesn’t happen all that much, but when it does…oh my gosh! Here’s a few…
Do you feel like you need something to keep kids’ hands busy during read aloud time? Are you looking for something fun to pep up your history class? Do you…

Circle Time, Morning Basket, Morning Time…or to us, homeschool Morning Meeting–they’re all the same idea, just maybe executed in slightly different ways. In preschool, you might see the teacher reciting…
Today is the first day of school. (Applause from all the mamas ready to get back to routine…crickets from the children. You can’t win ’em all.) Like usual, I’ve got…
The best thing about homeschooling is having the ability to change our minds…and our homeschool curriculum choices. I have said over and over that homeschooling provides the most amazing of…
