351 | The Joy of Memorization: Why and How (Janice Campbell‪)‬ The Homeschool Solutions Show

Memorization shouldn't be about rote learning — it is meant for cultivating wisdom, virtue, and a beautiful mind. Join me as I share a bit about my personal memory project — what I memorize, why, and how. I hope you'll be inspired to create a memory project that works for you!
