As homeschool parents, we are usually great at planning for the academic school year— setting goals and selecting curricula. But have you planned for family adventures in your school year? In this episode, Jessica encourages parents to remember the "why" of their choice to homeschool, and to build in opportunities to create traditions and adventure, including her favorite Annual Family Day.
