Minisode: The Reader's Guide to Homeschool with Mindy and Kaytee


Listen Later

Today, Kaytee and Mindy are here to share our homeschool wisdom. Between us, we have 27 years of homeschooling experience, and we are excited to share with you a bunch of what we’ve learned in that time. Minisode episodes are not time stamped, but we have a quick list of topics:

  • Getting Started: how much time it takes to homeschool, providing structure and routine (poster board and post-its, spiral notebooks), outside play, when to start formal school

  • Homeschool specific: philosphies and methods of education, how to choose curricula, when to abandon a curriculum, homeschool preschool soapbox

  • Virtual school specific: creating a schedule with a reward system, how to make a virtual school routine, what to do with non-school scheduled hours, ArtForKidsHub.com, 201 Awesome, Magical, Bizarre, and Incredible Experiments by Janice VanCleave

  • Applicable to both: entertaining younger siblings while older kids do school, how to fit in reading/work/housework while kids are around, how to fit in self-care, quiet time, what to do when outside play isn’t an option

  • Encouragement! You can do this!
