Summary

Two weeks ago I shared the first 5 of 10 mistakes I’ve made in my homeschool -- believe me, I’ve made many, many more than that!

But I’m highlighting 10 that stick out most prominently to me.

So in the last “Best of Read-Aloud Revival” episode, I shared the first 5 and today I’m sharing the next 5.

Hopefully, hearing these will keep you from making the mistakes I have. Homeschooling is a joy and a gift and it’s hard and wonderful and messy and effective -- it’s all of those things at once. I can promise you won’t get it perfect, and I can also promise that you don’t NEED to get it perfect.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Two big mistakes new homeschool parents often make
Why you have to avoid the comparison trap in your homeschool
Why more isn’t better when it comes to your homeschool
One of the hardest lessons I’ve learned in my years of homeschooling
