Whether you’ve started homeschooling more recently, or you’ve been at it for multiple years now, it can be so beneficial to take a step back now and then and evaluate how things are going. Believe it or not, two simple questions can really put everything into perspective, get you on the right track, and help you to avoid homeschooling burnout on the front end!

I was homeschooled growing up with my three younger sisters, so my family was very used to answering the age-old, number-one question, “But what about socialization?”

(Along with the running-up question, “Do you get to do school in your pajamas?” Everyone’s dream, I guess.)

We love autumn in our home and everything the change in seasons brings! I am having so much fun planning out some fall crafts for our homeschool this year, and I’m excited to share this awesome list of Pinterest favorites with you!

These pressed leaf bookmarks are such a simple fall nature craft, and they are a wonderful way to showcase and enjoy autumn leaves that you’ve pressed.

They would make lovely gifts or be a perfect project to compliment your homeschool nature study!

For many of us it’s that time of year again where homeschool planning is in full swing. If you’re like me, you want good systems in place for your household and homeschool to keep everything running smoothly and efficiently.

To help, I’ve created a collection of 15 home and homeschool planning printables you can download for free!

My husband and I just purchased our 1978 mountain fixer-upper, and we have entered into this process with many repair and home improvement projects on our to-do list.

Our first priority, though, (even before moving any of our belongings inside) was to remove the cigarette smoke smell.
