Blueberries and bananas conspire together to hide the green color of the kale. Add soymilk (or any other nut milk), orange juice, water, and whatever else you want. If you wanted more protein, you could throw in chickpeas or chia seeds, flax seeds or even tofu. Endless possibilities.

Homeschooling Made Simple | Part 6 of 7 – Building Your Support System

Posted on by

You know about systems by now. We do not rise to the level of our dreams. Instead, we fall to the level of our systems. Homeschooling is a long, arduous process. Depending on how many children you have, you could be homeschooling for 20+years. How are you sustaining yourself? How do you recharge your battery? This is where your support system comes in.

Posted on by

Hello, beautiful mamas! I am excited to continue to share with you the rest of the series. In Part 5 of Homeschooling Made Simple, we look at Life Management Systems. We do not rise to the level of our dreams and goals, we fall to the level of our systems. So what are your systems for doing laundry, making meals, making the beds, teaching the kids how to take out the trash and other life skills?

Homeschooling Made Easy - Part 5

We are almost there! Day 5 of 7 – Don’t give up now. Get organized.

Even if you think you do not have a system for anything, you have one. You just do not know it consciously. Awareness is the first step. Then, you continue with intentionality. That’s where this video series comes in, to guide you every step of the way. Implementation is the key. So watch Part 5, take some notes, and take action.

Let me know what your favorite systems are for your life management. And if you have received value from my content, please subscribe to this blog and to Homeschool Ways on YouTube. I really appreciate it.

Just like in a regular school program, your children will want to take art, music, sports, etc. They could also join a chess club, 4-H, scout troops, etc. Part 3 covers the extracurricular activities homeschoolers could get involved in and how you can prepare for and/or research them.
