A Minimalist Homeschool Program for 6th Grade, 3rd Grade, 2nd Grade, and PreK

We usually hold off on beginning our new homeschool year until the first week of September each year. Which means we’re starting up this week! Woohoo! Since we’re entering our 8th year of homeschooling, I don’t have the same intense excitement I once did. Now it’s more of a relaxed anticipation to what we’ll learnKeep Reading…

Minimalist Homeschooling: Stop the Stress!

Having a house full of children to homeschool can be exciting, fun, and…well, a little bit stressful. After all, we’re accepting the responsibility for educating our kids (even if they’re living with special needs) ourselves. It can be lonely and challenging, and I know this from experience. But a huge incentive of adopting minimalism is reducingKeep Reading…

Minimalist Homeschooling: Cutting Down on Craft Supplies

Crafting. I both love it and hate it. I love the feeling of making things with my kids. I don’t love the work of cleaning the mess up afterwards. Despite this ambiguity, I have managed to amass a collection of craft supplies far larger than what will ever be used during my homeschooling journey. So, likeKeep Reading…

Minimalist Homeschooling: Digital Decluttering

Do you think of yourself as a hoarder? Have you ever watched Hoarders and thought “That’s not me. I would never keep all that stuff.” I have. In fact, one of the reasons I’m slowly embracing minimalism in my homeschool is because I prefer to keep a smaller house with fewer possessions to take care of.Keep Reading…

Minimalist Homeschooling: Dealing with Paper Overload

If you’re at home right now, go into your homeschooling space and take a gander around. If your room is anything like mine, you probably have more items made up of one material than all others: paper. I had no idea how much paper I had accumulated over the past seven years of homeschooling untilKeep Reading…

Minimalist Homeschooling: How to Declutter Books

I never thought I’d ever utter this next sentence, but: I have too many books. There. I said it. That was tough. If there was an organization for Book Collectors Anonymous, I’d be at my meeting every week. I’ve always loved to read and, when my husband and I decided to homeschool our children, I wasKeep Reading…

What is Minimalist Homeschooling?

What is Minimalist Homeschooling?

Confession time: I’ve struggled off and on with homeschool hoarding for YEARS. I didn’t get a lot of support when I was a homeschooled student and I swore that my children would have all the books, resources, and materials they’d ever need. As a result, our bookshelves and closets are stacked to the gills with homeschooling supplies.Keep Reading…
