Before you jump into your homeschool routine like gangbusters this year, you might want to consider a more gentle approach. Easing back into homeschooling gradually can sometimes be a better way because it’s less overwhelming for both you and your kids. Going from full days of relaxation to full days of work can be a shock to the system and actually turn your kids off to homeschooling.
I found some tips for you recently from other homeschool moms on how to transition back into homeschooling gently. I hope they make your first few weeks of schooling more pleasant and enjoyable. 🙂
