    308. What You Should Actually Teach Your Child: Keep Homeschool Simple And Think Outside The Box

    It seems like everywhere you turn, someone is adding to the list of subjects to cover in your homeschool. And those are all really great courses of study and enrichment, but maybe they're not right for you. Simplicity is calling your name. And you'd rather get really good at a few subjects and topics than try to cover everything. Let's link arms and pare down the list to make it more manageable. And we'll let the cherry on top be the idea of thinking outside the box because not every area of study can fit neatly in a box...or time block. ♥ Leigh     JOIN THE MENTORSHIP PROGRAM https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship    DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S HOMESCHOOL WITH YOUR HOMESCHOOL BLUEPRINT https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint    CREATE YOUR HOME TASK SYSTEM WITH THE TIDY HOME https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome     Website -  https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter -  https://littlebylittlehomeschool.subscribemenow.com/ Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/homeschoollifestylecommunity  Follow - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Connect - info@littlebylittlehomeschool.com   Listen to these related episodes: 286.

    Do you feel like you're a stick in the mud and lean towards being legalistically organized?

    304. My Unofficial Poll And The Trend I've Observed Towards Quitting Homeschool: When, Who, And Why

    No one starts something with the intention of quitting. And that especially applies towards parents making decisions about their children. Of course, homeschooling is included in that! So, if no one plans to quit, why are there numbers of families doing just that? Could your family be next? Over the past decade, I've observed a few trends and one of them is the when, who, and why behind walking away from homeschooling. I thought that this should be brought to light and openly discussed so that you can combat this possibility on a personal level. Let's break it down and see what exactly leads to quitting, but then I've got hope for you to stay the course...I promise not to leave you hanging with bad news! ♥ Leigh     DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S HOMESCHOOL WITH YOUR HOMESCHOOL BLUEPRINT https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint    CREATE YOUR HOME TASK SYSTEM WITH THE TIDY HOME https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome   JOIN THE MENTORSHIP PROGRAM https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship      Website -  https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter -  https://littlebylittlehomeschool.subscribemenow.com/ Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/homeschoollifestylecommunity  Follow - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Connect - info@littlebylittlehomeschool.com   Listen to these related episodes: 125. 6 Warning Signs You Are About to Burnout As a Homeschool Mom    128.

    302. If You Do Nothing Else In Your Homeschool Today: Focus On Character Training

    Have you thought about the fact that your children are home with you and a bit of a captive audience at this point? It's true! And that means you can focus not only on academics, but on building their character too. Which means that to do that, it needs to be a focus for your daily lessons. With all the years of homeschooling and launching two of my children into the world, I have zero regrets of the time we focus on character training. And some days, it was the main goal for the day because it mattered more than the geography lesson.
