Little by Little Homeschool - Christian Homeschooling and Motherhood

Do you wish you felt confident in your homeschool decisions instead of constantly second-guessing yourself? Are you overwhelmed by questions, pressure, and the many roles you carry as a homeschool mom? The Little By Little Homeschool Podcast offers tactical and realistic encouragement to free you from the stress, pressure, and constant uncertainty that so many homeschool moms feel. You'll find practical guidance and mindset shifts that help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and peace. Hi, I'm Leigh, a Christian wife and mom who spent far too many years trying to duct-tape my priorities together. I chased approval, tried to meet unspoken expectations, and navigated homeschooling without a clear foundation.  I finally realized that if I was going to fully embrace the life I had, I needed to operate from a place of peace and joy. That's when I planted my feet firmly where I was and began to create beauty, seek simplicity, and live intentionally. If you are ready to love your life as a homeschool mom and to know with confidence that you are doing the right thing for your children--this podcast is for you! Together, we'll dive into homeschool hot topics, practical adjustments, and mindset shifts that help you create a homeschool where both you and your children can flourish—little by little.

    488. 3 Homeschool Hacks You May Not Be Aware Of

    There are so many ways to homeschool and more variations of methods than we can probably count. And that is one thing to love about homeschool: it is what you want it to be. Over the years, I accumulated a couple of "hacks" that made homeschool much more personalized to my family and it also helped me manage our home education so much better. These three simple shifts helped us to enjoy the year and I hope they are a help to you too.

    487. Stop Outsourcing Your Homeschool. Do This Instead

    We can all (and should) admit that homeschooling can be hard. There are highs and lows and concerns that moms have that are legitimate. At times, it all just feels so overwhelming. And you might feel stuck...wishing for someone to swoop in and wave a magic wand and everything will be better. But what if I think that outsourcing is what is keeping you stuck in that cycle of concerns and problems? Today, I'm going to spell that out and show you what it looks like. And by the end, there will be layers of hope in you that you don't need to outsource your child's education.

    486. How To Add And Embrace Creativity In Your Homeschool

    It can be so easy to slip away from our first goals of homeschooling and become so rigid in our home education. The pressure from state requirements, family members, the desire for them to excel, or just getting lost in the weeds of what we are really preparing our children for is very common. One thing that gets pushed easily to the back burner is creativity. Children are naturally creative and as adults, with the weight of the world on our shoulders and a home full of children, it doesn't always feel important to protect and encourage creativity. Whether you need to add or embrace creativity...or are wondering if you're doing enough of it...I have a few ideas on what this could look like in your homeschool. Take some notes and then run with it and get creative yourself! ♥ Leigh DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome    GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship   SIMPLIFY YOUR MEAL PLANNING https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/meal     Website - https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter - https://littlebylittlehomeschool.myflodesk.com/subscribe Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Little by Little Homeschool podcast is part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

    485. Is There Room For Childhood In Your Homeschool?

    The academics are important in homeschool, but it wasn't the only reason you decided to homeschool. Were you hoping to preserve your children's innocence, time, and heart? If so, it can be so easy to fill up and maximize every moment of the homeschool years. And those may be filled with really good things, but what if you look back someday and realize they lost childhood because of your zeal? I have a few questions for you to think on as you consider if there is room for childhood in your homeschool. And I think this is a really good time of the year to weigh all your plans against the big picture of their childhood years. ♥ Leigh DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome    GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship   SIMPLIFY YOUR MEAL PLANNING https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/meal     Website - https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter - https://littlebylittlehomeschool.myflodesk.com/subscribe Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Little by Little Homeschool podcast is part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.
