Hey everyone! It’s Tuesday, time for the Laugh and Learn linky! We’ve picked our favorites from last week and we’re thrilled to share them with you all! If you’re a blogger, link up your own posts below!

I also wanted to share an article that I wrote recently for The Homeschool Post that might be of encouragement if you’re dealing with one of the possible obstacles to happy homeschooling: a dawdler.

How to Deal with a Homeschooling Dawdler

Do you have a child who has no motivation to do his or her schoolwork? Have you spent hours trying to nudge, prod, and coerce your student into finishing his assignment? Congratulations! You’ve got a homeschooling dawdler.

I have a dawdler of my own, and I know from experience that it can be a very trying situation. This is even worse when you have more than one child, since the dawdler (who shall remain nameless) can even interfere with the other kids’ progress.

After a lot of frustration, I finally learned a few suggestions for dealing with a homeschool dawdler and I recently got to share them in an article over at The Homeschool Post. Click over to read how I deal with a dawdler in our family!
