Episode 30: Why We Chose to Homeschool

I ended up having SO much to say on this topic that I decided to split the episode into two parts. This is part 1 of 2. To save you some time in case this episode isn’t for you, I don’t really dive into curriculum or any sort of “How To’s” of homeschooling (maybe another time)

This one really is all about my thought process behind deciding to homeschool and some general observations between the differences of homeschooling versus a traditional school setting. Even if your kids are currently in school or perhaps not old enough for school, it still might have some takeaways for you. If not, no worries – there will be plenty more episodes to come!

I mention in the episode that while we’re not extremely strict on any set curriculum (yet) a couple of resources that I have come to love are:

Arrows and Applesauce: A Christian based homeschool resource – she has fun and bright printables geared toward preschool ages through the first couple of grades. Most of these are intended to print, laminate, and some even utilize the little Velcro dots. We absolutely love them! You can use my (affiliate) link here and use code ROSIE15 to save 15%

If you feel overwhelmed by all their options, there’s a really cute “subscription” for just $7 for a month (or $5 if you subscribe) called “Apple Snacks”

Lastly, while there are SO many amazing homeschooling resources on Instagram, one account I want to shoutout is @raisingwildsaints – she is a Catholic Homeschooling mama with amazing digital resources including guides to homeschooling and different printouts for the liturgical seasons and just overall great inspiration on her account on homeschooling.
