In this episode of Journey Together, we explore how bringing game-based elements into homeschool lessons can transform motivation, focus, and joy. Shannon sits down with experienced teachers to unpack why games work so well for learning, how to use simple strategies like points and challenges, and what to do when gamification doesn’t quite go as planned.

Whether you love digital tools or want to stay screen-free, you’ll walk away with practical ideas you can use tomorrow — plus fun examples, creative tips, and a few reassuring reminders that learning doesn’t have to be serious to be meaningful.

If your homeschool could use a spark of playfulness, this episode is your invitation to make learning feel like an adventure.
