~ Don’t miss the giveaway of our Help for Homeschool Bundle at the end! ~
You are invited! Friends, The Heart of the Matter is having an absolutely FREE fall conference tonight and tomorrow night. There is a wonderful line up of encouraging homeschool mentors.
Read all about it here –> Heart of the Matter Fall Conference
Why am I telling you about it when it has already started? And when it is already sold out? Well, because, you can head over and get on the waiting list. When the recordings of the conference are available, you will be the first to find out. AND you will also be the first to know when the next conference is scheduled – so you can attend.
That’s right, I am speaking on Helpful Habits for the Heart of Homeschooling plus A Simple Start in Art. It’s got to be a hodgepodge, right? I will be speaking at 7 pm eastern.

My biggest challenge is getting my kids back into a routine…. plus juggling my at home business along with teaching them…
My biggest challenge is incorporating the next one to reach school age and occupying the little one (what worked when he was 1 doesn’t necessarily work now that he’s 2).
Yes, just getting back into a good, solid routine. I think once we have really incorporated a lifestyle of learning, it won’t be a big deal. What throws us off is taking our road trip each year. Once we get home, it’s still like we are in vacation mode! 🙂 Thank you!
My biggest challenge is getting my teen out of bed in the morning. This year my goal is to relax more and not stress over school.
Biggest challenge = getting the other 7 people in my house to go back to following my schedule for school as we buckle down a bit more during this part of the year.
Easier time of it tip = call family meetings on Sunday afternoons to talk about an overview of the week and allow children to have input about their education and plans for some of the days.
My biggest challenge is TV. My kids love to relax in front of the TV and I love the quiet time so I take advantage of it too much.
This is our first year homeschooling, so I a very excited to see everyone’s tips.
My biggest challenge is working around all the extracurricular activities.
Just getting it all together is a struggle for me. I have five kids and one on the way and everyone knows how hard it is sometimes to get everyone busy again.
