The Local Library & Homeschooling

  As a homeschool mom, having a library card is almost as important as coffee. My family is extremely blessed to have an amazing local library system with not only books galore (we can even request books at partnering libraries, it is awesome), but they offer a wealth of classes, Story Time, homeschool programs, resources

Lessons Learned from an Ox

  Once, in a Bible study group, we were asked to share a recent passage that had impacted us. Since I had been reading through Proverbs, I knew immediately which verse I was going to use. I also knew it was going to raise a few eyebrows. “Where no oxen are, the crib is clean:

Hey Mama Monday: What Does Homeschooling Mean to You, Mama?

  What does homeschooling mean to you? Are you doing it because it’s a current popular trend or just convenient? Maybe you travel a lot or your kids have special needs? Is it just a means to an end? Were your children being bullied in public school and you thought this would be the solution?

Consider Interest-Based Science from SchoolhouseTeachers.com

  Recently, my husband asked me to find a new Bible study for my younger son and him to do together. They had been doing a chronological overview of the Bible using the graphic novel style Action Bible. When they finished that, they discussed the Gospel message. Then, my husband felt that an apologetics type

A Teen’s Perspective of Public School

  I have to start by saying our kids have been homeschooled from the beginning. A few years ago when we were moving across the country, our oldest was an upcoming freshman. We were moving into a high school that looked great on paper. I had a few good reasons for considering public school for

Are You Raising Your Kids to Fulfill God’s Purpose?

  “For David, after he had served the purpose of God in his own generation, fell asleep.” (Acts 13:36, NASB) David fulfilled God’s purpose in his own generation, and then fell asleep for all eternity. This raises questions.   Are we fulfilling God’s purpose in our own generation? Are our children being raised to fulfill

Hey Mama Monday: 3 Truths to Remember

  Hey Mama, See that little boy of yours? That wee little man? That tank on two legs? Yes, the one who is SO loud. The funny guy who is always cracking everyone up. The kid with the rumpled, flyaway hair and food on his face. Yeah, that one. The boy with all the personality

Family Prayer Time

Do you have a time in your home when you do family devotions and pray together? When my first three were little, we didn’t find this important, but thankfully God changed our hearts, and we sit down for family devotions at least five times a week now. Coming together to read God’s Word and pray

Why Is Art Study Important for Kids?

  Art study is a field that must be given as a daily lesson for kids. Art includes many things, from 2-dimensional objects to 3-dimensional objects: painting, drawing, sculpture, architectural design, and digital art. All of that is interesting and useful to learn because human life can’t be separated from art. Whatever the child’s intelligence,

A Tried and True Book List for Boys

  I adore a good book list. As a diehard bookworm, I am always on the lookout for a good book and my next favorite author. As a homeschool mom, book lists help focus on and make goals for my son. The same dear son who also happens to be dyslexic and not so fond

Summer Time is… Tunnel Time?

  Science permeates everything in our lives, beyond our everyday curriculum with our children, especially in the summer. We breathe the fresh summer air (environmental science). We use our bodies on the playground and the beach (biology). We make yummy summer meals with cold fruits and veggies (chemistry). Summer is a great time to explore

Definition of School

  If you are already in a homeschool setting, you probably have gone through multiple schedule changes depending on seasons of life, and what each of your students have needed at the time. After speaking with a few moms on the topic of scheduling, I thought it may be helpful to share what has worked
