This is The Homemaking Foundation's podcast with Jamie Belmay, episode number 273.

Welcome to the Homemaking Foundation's podcast, where we give you the tools, inspiration, and encouragement you need to craft a gospel-centered home.

And now your host from youngwifesguide.com, Jamie Belmay.

Hey, ladies. Welcome back to my podcast.

Today is a great episode if you have kids at home.

We're going to talk about keeping kids occupied while at home and having fun and just some ideas for how to get through the days when kids are

home all day long, every day. Of course, we're in the midst of everybody being home right now.

And this is not something that is new to us. We homeschool. We both, Jason and I both work from home.

And this is like the quarantine hasn't

actually really changed our daily routine at all, which we're very, very thankful for. So we've had

a lot of questions on, okay, Jamie, you guys work from home and you have kids and do homeschool.

Like, how do you practically get

things done? Like when you need to get on the computer and get some work done, there are times

when that has to happen. Or just how do you, how do you keep the boredom at bay when kids are

home all day long? You know, this is a problem we face in the summer too. And that's what we're

going to be talking about today.

And then in a little while, we'll hear from the sponsor for today's episode, Laurel Springs,

which is a very timely message to be talking about right now. But we're just going to, for now,

let's just dive straight into this because I have a lot of ground to cover

and a lot of fun things that I want to share. So for the ages of our kids, we have five kids,

and I am due in three weeks with baby number six. I'm going to be putting a lot of the stuff into

practice while we have the newborn at home for those first couple of weeks.
