LITTLE HABITS & BIG IDEAS: CREATING A HOMESCHOOL THAT WORKS FOR YOUR FAMILY
Education, it’s about learning little things that translate into big things and how those little things can have the biggest impact on how we view the world or how we live in it. The official start to most of our educational journeys is preschool, where the world starts to expand. But really what is preschool? Ask people and you can get different answers but intentional learning or teaching seems to be a theme. But not everyone, children especially learn at the same pace.
As we age we talk about the seasons of life but on the chat today hear education compared to a set of seasons for each individual and the benefits that Erin (today’s guest) believes homeschooling brings to each child's life. Learn about how she was called to homeschool her children and what that looks like for her family.
ABOUT OUR GUEST | Erin Cox is a joy-chasing homeschool mama to 4 babies, elementary to young adult. She married her grade-school sweetheart over 20 years ago and lives to love him well. Erin writes about homeschooling, taking challenging moments captive, and loving her family well at Life, Abundantly. She is the author of multiple early-years Charlotte Mason and Classically-inspired programs at The Gentle + Classical Press. She is the Founding Editor in Chief of On Mission, a quarterly culture-focused geography magazine. You can find her on Instagram @gentle_classical_press https://shopgentleclassical.com

Erin 01:27: Okay, so we've been homeschooling for 12 years now. And um, I had homeschooling like, just on my heart from the time I was pregnant with my oldest child, I didn't know any homeschoolers, I knew nothing about it,
Erin 09:26: That reminds me of just the idea behind like, your listeners will have maybe heard of narration but not necessarily know what that means, or what the value of narration is?
Janna 18:43: It does, I think our society has devalued the idea of seasons. I mean, we don't, we don't follow food in seasons anymore, because, to us, it's available year-round.
Erin 22:13: So the way that we do things in our, in our home, and in our program like general classical preschool, is that we pick just a few things to focus on at a time because habits are developed through repetition and intentionality, we are always developing habits, it's just whether we're developing the habits that we want to develop or not.
