Manage episode 512652194 series 3430337
Hey Friends~
Have you ever wondered what it takes for a homeschooling family to thrive?
Today we’re diving into it—flexibility, intentionality, and the courage to learn differently.
Research shows homeschooling is growing across America, and more parents are discovering that when learning fits the child, confidence blooms.
In this episode, we talk about the parent who feels not qualified, flexibility that brings freedom, blending academics into everyday life, and how learning together builds connection.
We’ll also dig into the role of play—what it can look like in a homeschool setting, and how play helps you keep joy right at the center of it all - whether or not you are homeschooling.
Listen in to find insight and encouragement for anyone helping a child to learn.
Always cheering you on!
