Who doesn't love scrolling through Pinterest, looking at all the beautiful homeschool rooms, the intricate crafts and the endless possibilities of how glorious your homeschool environment could be?
But then you put your phone down and look at your dining room table, strewn with books, loose papers, random legos and other disorganized, non-beautiful signs of your attempts to home educate your children.
You may even look in the kitchen and find dishes piled up because, after all, everyone has been at home all day, the kids have been doing their school work and you've been busy doing your own thing.
Sometimes we can feel like we are doing something terribly wrong when our homeschool doesn't look like the rooms on Pinterest. Or like the one our very creative and crafty neighbor down the street has put together.
This episode will help you to relax and feel confident in your homeschooling efforts even if everything isn't perfect. Even if your homeschool set up looks nothing like what can be found on Pinterest. Or in your neighbor's house.
So clear a spot on your sofa, put your feet up on the coffee table (or the laundry basket containing last week's clean laundry), get your favorite hot drink and unwind while you listen to this episode.
One of the key benefits of homeschoooling is the ability to teach your child to think critically. You can truly help your child to move toward critical thinking versus memorizing just to pass a test.
