If you feel like you’re afraid to make the first mark in your planner, or if you aren’t sure how to use certain pages, or don’t know what to write, or are afraid to mess it all up… I’m here to talk you down and help you make the most of your planner!

The homeschool world is full of creative, fun printable resources for any interest we might want to follow! It took me a while to warm up to the idea of how and when to use these, but now that I have a system to use them in our home - they’ve become an adventure we all love.

All books are not created equal. There's a lot out there to sort through! So I've decided to do a little round-up of the resources I use to help me find quality living books for our home that I hope will help you focus your energy on reading the best books, not hunting them down.

Miss Mason’s writings are rich with big ideas, even some that may completely change the way you parent, the way you look back on your own education, and how you approach educating your children in the future. She will change the way you look at the books on your shelves, the way you speak to your children, the movies you show them, the activities presented at library story time, the way other people speak to your children, the way you schedule your days… I could go on.

Lately, I hit my stride with planning and recording our weekly lessons. I tried a couple of different things over the past few months of the school year but I landed on a favorite so I thought I'd share in case it's helpful to you!
