RAR #250: Relaxed, Bookish, and Ordinary

Read-Aloud Revival ®

What if I told you that your homeschool could be relaxed, bookish, and ordinary? If you’re anything like me, that’s music to your ears. 

Our kids thrive–and we do too–when our day-to-day homeschool is relaxed, bookish, and ordinary. In fact, that's what over 726 experienced homeschool moms told me were the three most important qualities. 

Today, I’m sharing a recording from a session I did at a series of homeschool conferences  earlier this year called “Relaxed, Bookish, and Ordinary”.

If you’re hoping that your homeschool can be any or all of those things, listen in–I bet you’re closer to it than you think.

In this episode, you’ll hear: 

  • How a relaxed approach impacts your child’s ability to learn and your peace as a homeschooler
  • The academic, personal, and relationship benefits of having a bookish homeschool
  • Why you don’t need to strive for an extraordinary homeschool to do it well
