#381 Homeschooling With Little Kids: What I’d Actually Do
About this episode
Meg Thomas discusses how to effectively homeschool young children while managing the needs of a busy household.
How do you homeschool a kindergartener when you also have a preschooler, toddler, and baby who all need you? In this episode, I’m answering a listener’s question about what a typical homeschool day can look like when you have a house full of little kids. I’ll share what I would actually focus on at these ages, how I’d keep kindergarten and preschool simple, why I wouldn’t save school for nap time, and how I think about a daily rhythm instead of a strict schedule. If you’re trying to juggle lessons, naps, babies, toddlers, chores, and everything else that comes with this season, this episode is for you.
