For people that aren't doing it already it's simple... stop making excuses.

Everyone loves to tell us how they wish they could homeschool but have an endless list of excuses why they aren't. I understand that its work and that not everyone is where they want to be financially, but there's always an excuse until you decide there's not going to be one.

Other than that this outlawed comment was actually pretty good: #1056325

We still do a curriculum, buy workbooks etc, but its not like an 8 hour a day classroom thing... spending an hour or so with workbooks and you're already way ahead. Otherwise its just being an engaged parent with play-learning, keeping them out of tablets and bullshit TV, and curating those things in small constructive doses.

Let them learn by themselves like how they learned to crawl, walk and talk. We didn't need to do anything. Just be there for support and to take their curiosity to the next level.

This is the plan anyway! I'm sure it's not going to be as easy as I imagine.

My little one goes to a Montessori school, a good one, but I still feel the need to do some homeschooling, very informally. That involves mostly reading (no compromise on this one), writing, etc.

I've signed him up on synthesis.com (team and tutor programs), it's a great resource for developing problem solving and teamwork skills.

An underrated skill imho is just to have conversations with them, listening to them, and keeping asking questions. It strengthens the bond while developing their imagination and thinking abilities.

People doesn't like direct advices nowadays. This explains they refuse any advice or homeschooling or similar tricks.

Dont try to replicate traditional school at home. Focus on curiosity not just curriculum. The magic of homeschooling is freedom use it
