Ahhhh… The expectations. The checklists. The household chores. Your kids education?!

Somehow we’re overwhelmed just thinking about all the things that we are supposed to be doing well. And somehow, well…. It feels hard. Like we can’t possibly keep up with it all.

What if it didn’t have to be so hard?

Guess what, mom?

…Homeschooling doesn’t have to be hard!

My sister, Dori Colborn (mom of 4) joins me (mom of 3) on the podcast today for a discussion about how to simplify your homeschool. Trust me, with 7 kids in the mix, we’ve found a few tactics for getting things done and making things work. There are only so many hours in the day, right?! Necessity is the mother of invention!

The key to making this happen? Find ways to “let it be easy.”

Dori and I are about to help you simplify your homeschool, as you learn how to turn ordinary, every day events into learning opportunities. (It’s easier than you think!)

Press play, mama. This conversation can’t wait another minute!

I did a thing.

I invited my three kids onto the podcast to talk openly and honestly about their thoughts on homeschooling. Nothing was pre-scripted and I didn’t even tell them the questions I would be asking. I wanted them to share off the cuff, and from their hearts.

They didn’t hold back and a few of their answers even surprised me (in a good way)!

So often, we hear the mom’s take on homeschooling, but it’s a whole different thing to hear it from the perspective of the kids being homeschooled.

Join us for the conversation, as the kids answer questions like…

• What’s been your favorite thing about homeschooling?
• What has surprised you?
• What’s been most challenging for you?
• How have your family relationships changed?
• Would you ever go back to public school?
• What are you most looking forward to in the years to come?

It’s a tell-all episode on the Joy at Home podcast!
