Hey Mama Monday: Say Goodbye to Burn-out, Mama

  Hey Mama,   Whether you call it a mental health day, a break for scheduling, or a teacher professional development day, we all need a break every now and then. Don’t feel guilty about this; every professional educator has breaks like these scheduled. In-home educators need the same.  There are many benefits of taking

Never-ending Repairs

  My family and I recently moved. The sad thing is that we had only been living in our previous residence for about 2 years. Why the sudden move? Let’s just say that my wife is a country girl through and through, so when we moved to a house in the city, she wasn’t happy.

Hey Mama Monday: Time for Everything, Mama

  Hey Mama,   I don’t know about you, but this could be a common lament at my house: “Help! I ran out of time to do everything I planned!” In my zoo (otherwise known as a family–grin), that’s a common problem. I can make all kinds of plans, but real life all too often

Homeschooling’s Role in Teaching Practical Life Skills

  Homeschoolers learn all the academic basics. We start with our reading, writing, and arithmetic and go on to social studies, science, and so on. But there’s more to homeschooling than academics.

Comprehensive Resource Guide for Homeschool Families

  Homeschooling parents love to share their resources with others. This resource guide for homeschool families is provided by homeschooling families for homeschooling families.
