Take my quiz, What's Your Homeschool Mom Personality?

This year I'm doing monthly Then and Now Reflections on the podcast - looking back over my 15 year homeschooling career and sharing what I've learned along the way.

In Episode 124, listen in with me and my son Jonathan (currently 19) as we chat about the past, specifically re: 2011 in our homeschool (when he was six-years-old)!

What we remember fondly, what we'd rather not remember (LOL), and what we might do differently if we could have a do-over.

To read the original post I wrote in 2011 and/or check out links mentioned in this episode (including that circle time video, which is a doozy!), head here.

In this episode, you'll hear:

I welcome Jonathan back to the podcast after he's been away touring with the Jonas Brothers
my initial homeschooling philosophy of focusing on relationships rather than academics as top priority, and what I think about that now looking back
our daily homeschool rhythm from 2011 including morning routines, books, a few structured activities, "sections" time, and what Jonathan remembers fondly (or not!)
we reminisce about highlights of their 2011 days: walks, circle time, and the library
how we used screens, quiet time, and outings to make it through the days
what Jonathan thinks now about how our homeschool style has influenced him as a young adult

Listen in and be encouraged!
