Practical tips for Home-educating mulitple ages

February 7, 2018

I often get asked how I manage to home educate different age kiddos, how it works, what our days look like, how I manage to balance everyone’s different needs. Firstly, having home educated for the past almost 11 years, since Lola was 4 and Kiki just a baby, I’ve not known any other way –...

A little homeschooling update for the New Year

January 17, 2018

A couple of slow weeks over the festive season seems to have done us all the world of good… by the beginning of last week, we were all ready to be back to a more usual rhythm and ready to get back to some learning. When I got the girls to set their goals for...

This Homeschooling Life – a look back at November

November 29, 2017

Ah, November. I’ve been sat here trying to think of something to write for the past ten minutes. It’s been one of those months when I don’t feel like we’ve done anything. Though at the same time, the days have whizzed by and we’ve been super busy. Such is life I guess. The thing with...

Homeschool | October in review

October 30, 2017

October felt like a good month. We’ve found our groove at last after the summer, happily falling back into new {old} rhythms. I try to find balance over the course of a week, rather than each day… so some dyas are all about homeschool stuff, some days we’ll be out with friends all day, somedays...

October 4, 2017

This post has been sat waiting for me to write for the past four weeks. I actually made our plans for this coming ‘school’ year right back at the beginning of the summer, then when September came we really struggled to put summer behind us and return to our usual rhythms. We figured we’d hold...

And that was April – This Homeschooling Life #21

May 1, 2017

April seems to have flown by {I’m sure I say that every month}, but with two weeks of the month taken up with the Easter Holidays I felt a bit like we didn’t do anything… yet when I sat down to write this, I realised how much we did do! While we don’t stick to...

EVERYDAY LIFE, HOMESCHOOLING

Finding our flow – This Homeschooling Life #20

April 3, 2017

March was a really good month, homeschooling wise. We made a few changes to our daily rhythm/routines that work a lot better for all of us, and I finally felt like I was a little more organised with what we were going to do! I’m sure the coming of Spring has helped us all feel...

HOMESCHOOLING

This Homeschooling Life #19

March 6, 2017

I felt like we hit the ground running this month, in terms of homeschooling terms at least. We’ve really settled into our new rhythm and it’s working so well. Years of trying to do things the other way around, often lead to stressful days and not much getting done. Letting them have time to themselves...
