As mothers, we all want what's best for our children. We want to give them the best education, the most experiences and the coolest opportunities. This, of course, is wonderful but it also means that we have a tendency to over complicate things. When you're a homeschooler, there's a whole lot more things for you to complicate. And let me tell you...no one benefits from over complicated.
Sometimes it's hard to step back and see exactly how we're making things harder but when we're in the moment, up to our eyeballs in laundry, sleep deprived and trying to teach a math lesson in the car on the way to tai kwon do...well... we start to realize that something needs to change.
I'm here to tell you that you can simplify your homeschool. It doesn't have to be chaotic and stressful and messy (well...not all the time anyway). I am the queen of over complication so I know exactly what its like when things get crazy. But I also know the peace that comes with simpler days. I want everyone to know what that feels like.
For the rest of this week, I will be discussing 5 simple steps that you can take to simplify your homeschool. Hopefully by the end of the week, things will be a little simpler and a little easier.
