I am by no means a homeschool expert. After much discussion, thought, and prayer, my husband and I decided in the summer of 2012 to begin homeschooling our first grade and preschool-age daughters. We are learning as we go, a little more each day.
No two homeschool families are alike, so if you are thinking about homeschooling I highly recommend doing lots of research into the different approaches to homeschooling and the various “philosophies of education.” (100 Top Picks for Homeschool Curriculum by Cathy Duffy and So You’re Thinking about Homeschool by Lisa Welchel are both great resources!)

I love your blogs! We are about to begin our own homeschooling adventure this August, and right now my biggest source of apprehension is the organization of our day and keeping my 2 year old busy. Any and all tips are welcomed!

I am not normally a fan of TV/Videos but I found that the Leap Frog Letter Factory & Word Factory DVDs were awesome for my 3 year old! She learned all her letters and phonics really well just from the videos. Having a few different “busy boxes” with activities that only come out during school time really helped too!
