    77. Best of Series - Planning for the New Homeschool School Year

    This episode of the Peaceful Homeschool Podcast features Emma and Beth discussing how they plan for the upcoming homeschool year. They reflect on their different planning styles and emphasize the importance of involving their kids in the planning process to ensure a meaningful and enjoyable learning experience.  Emma shares her preference for early planning, starting as early as March, and discussing subjects, curriculum choices, unit studies, and field trips with her kids. Beth, on the other hand, tends to plan more loosely and focuses on planning history and science around field trips and unit studies. They both encourage listeners not to stress about the planning process and to consider buying used curriculum or finding free resources to make homeschooling more affordable.  The hosts also share some fun traditions they have on the first day of school to celebrate the start of a new homeschool year. This episode wraps up with a call for listeners to share their own homeschool traditions.

    73. Best of Series - Homeschool Time Management, Home Management

    So much to do, so little time. Some days that’s how it feels with cooking, cleaning, errands, activities, homeschooling. Today Emma and Beth share some of their experiences with making things more peaceful and less hectic at home. From the time your kids are toddlers, they can be learning that in a family everyone helps. From cooking once and eating twice (or three times), to “stacking up” errands, to five-minute chores for kids, we’re chatting about ways to simplify your homeschooling life. Collaborating as a family to work together and teach important life skills is one of the keys to having a peaceful homeschooling life. Maybe you, too, can earn a gold star on your forehead like Beth.

    72. Religions, No Religion, Politics, Can We Still Be Friends? Park Day Taboo or Not Taboo

    In this episode, hosts Emma and Beth dive into the world of homeschooling and community. Do we all need to share the same religion—or even the same views—to learn together, be friends, or invite each other into our lives? They explore the benefits of exposing kids to different beliefs, weigh potential drawbacks, and ask: Can you listen to us if you’re not a Christian? With heartfelt insights, Emma and Beth reflect on how diverse perspectives—from vaccine debates to faith—don’t have to divide us. Drawing from their own experiences, they celebrate the power of civil, respectful discussions that bridge differences, foster understanding, and remind us to love every neighbor, no matter what they believe Send a text Find Your Homeschool Vibe Find Your Homeschool Vibe, How to Homeschool Without Losing Your Mind a book by co-host Beth Lee This Ability PodcastReal stories, advocacy, and inclusion from the disability community.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify Support the show This Week's Sponsor is actually Beth!
