So what is child-led learning? It’s just what it sounds like: following your child’s interests to propel your lessons and topics of study. Sometimes child-led…

We had so much fun learning about…
Planning is my favorite! I love planning our homeschool year and I’ve learned a lot about it over the last few years. I know planning can feel overwhelming, even if you love it.
