The online homeschooling community is so giving, isn’t it? Each year, bloggers post what curricula they are using, why they’re choosing said curricula, and any helpful hints for the coming school year. For newer, and even more experienced homeschool moms, this is a dream! It’s such a treat to peek into another family’s homeschool and …
We are now in our 5th year of homeschooling here in the Hill House. That’s so hard to believe on many levels! I could write a book on the many things I’ve learned in this 5 years. One of the biggest concepts? I can change curriculum during the middle of our homeschool year. I know …
It is hard for me to believe that my oldest child will be a fourth grader this year. My girls are growing up on me too: 2nd grade, official Kindergarten, and Preschool. I know every mama says, “I can’t believe they’re this old…” but it’s true! It’s so bittersweet for this mama. We are currently in …
I received monetary compensation for the time invested in reviewing this curriculum and in writing a thoughtful, honest review. The opinions contained in this post are 100% mine.

My #3 child (of 4) is ready to read! I had a feeling that she would be an earlier reader, and I honestly could have started her a couple of months ago. However, now is the time. She just turned 5 last week and she’s ready to get going! Note: This post contains affiliate links …

This year, my 8 year old son is our third grader! My oldest child is such a joy to teach. He’s the type of child that wakes up each day looking for new things to learn. He’s an avid reader and likes to be challenged, so our third grade curriculum should live up to that …
My 6 year old daughter is our First Grade student this year! She’s very excited about the First Grade and I’m looking forward to being her teacher! A little background: Some of these curriculum choices will not seem like “traditional” First Grade choices. If you’ve been homeschooling for any length of time, you understand that …
I absolutely love teaching my littles. They are always so eager to “do school” (unlike my oldest at times!). We affectionately call my youngest two “the Little Girls” and this school year, the Red Head will be 2 1/2-3 and my Sadie will be 4. I wasn’t planning on doing any Kindergarten level work with …
If you’ve read many of my other posts on incorporating art and art appreciation in our homeschool, you know that this isn’t a strong suit for me. 😉 I had little to no art appreciation in my own schooling, so I hardly know where to start when it comes to exposing my children to great …
I recently had 36 {glorious!} hours to myself to plan our homeschool year over the summer. It was me, my laptop, and all of our curriculum laid out in a hotel room. Did I mention I was by myself?! It was fabulous. Prior to that planning time, I already purchased our curriculum. I wanted to …
