Summary

It's easy to feel the pressure to dive headlong into "school" once our kids reach the age of 5, but the truth is that a slow, more unhurried approach has proven to be far more beneficial. There are many reasons for that, many of which I share in my simple, mercifully short book, The Unhurried Homeschooler. Today my daughter, who has 4 kids 7 and under, joins me to talk about what a simple, unhurried, more natural, more effective, and WAY less stressful approach looks like! If you have little ones 7 and under, you won't want to miss this episode! The Unhurried Homeschooler Unhurried Grace for a Mom’s Heart The Four-Hour School Day 100 Easy Lessons to Teach Your Child to Read (P.S. Don't forget to check out my latest book, The Four Hour School Day: How You and Your Kids Can Thrive in the Homeschool Life on Amazon, durendawilson.com, or your favorite bookseller!)

0:53.2	school day kind of like
