Homeschool Better Together with Pam Barnhill

Turning Lunch Into Learning: Tips From a Busy Homeschool Mom


Listen Later

In this episode of Homeschool Better Together, I’m joined by my friend Sunni Dallas, a mom of seven, who shares how she uses the Wonder World Podcast to enrich her homeschool days—especially when life is busy with babies, toddlers, and teens. Sunni talks about how lunchtime has become the perfect anchor for learning, where we provide the content, and she simply hits play. From history to fables, Wonder World is her go-to resource for a mini morning time with her kids.

We also chat about other resources Sunni uses to simplify homeschooling and keep her big family engaged without overloading herself with planning. If you’ve ever struggled to keep up with morning time or need a fresh way to make learning work with multiple ages, Sunni’s approach will give you ideas and inspiration.

Key Takeaways:

  • Using Wonder World at lunch for a “mini morning time” when life gets busy.
  • Tips for balancing homeschooling with kids of all ages.
  • Practical resources and routines that keep homeschool simple and fun.
  • How using pre-prepared resources frees up time and keeps kids engaged.
