HOMESCHOOL
BIBLICALLY BASED, MINIMALIST MINDED HOMESCHOOL
Welcome! We homeschool for many reasons, but these are some of the main factors that keep us doing what we do:
​
Time is short. This life is crazy and flies by too fast-- we want to be together a much as possible and really live each day to the max. No waiting for a 3 day weekend to come up so we can head out on a fun trip- anytime is a cause enough for us!
​
God first. We believe in the one and true God, we believe that he sent his son Jesus Christ to the world to redeem us all. We believe that the life we should lead and the devotion to His word is much more important than a once a week sermon, it's an all day, every day, matter of the heart.
​
The modern educational system isn't an environment purposely crafted to inspire a lifelong love of learning. The push of cramming early schooling, the rigid scheduling, the force feeding of random facts, the disconnection between workbook memorization and real life knowledge (how much of what you learned in 13 years of formal schooling do you ACTUALLY use in daily life?), isn't what we want for our children.
​
Flexibility. Cold and rainy out? Not feeling well? Too busy with our home-based-business? No worries- we have all the flexibility we need! Some days we play more, some days we get lost in snuggling on the couch watching movies, some days the weather is just too pretty out to sit inside doing anything. It's all ok- seize the day!
​
Minimalist Approach. We have worked over the past few years to take a more minimalist approach to many areas of our lives. Homeschool was one of the last areas that needed a functional, in depth, yet minimalist overhaul. 5+ years in the making-- here it is!

What you'll find here is the FREE Bible Curriculum I write and use with my children (from the youngest to the oldest) as well as the resources (all either free or nearly free) that we use to give our children a rich education!

RESOURCES
We believe that the knowledge of the Word of the Lord is THE priority to training our children up - therefore it is the foundation of our children's education.
​
With that foundation firmly established, and continually strengthened, we focus on the core skills of READING, WRITING and ARITHMETIC. This gives our children a solid toolkit by which they can pursue any areas of learning they desire throughout the rest of their lives. We foster a love of learning in our children, seeking the Lord for wisdom, and then letting them grow and pursue their interests.
Check out our BLOG for links to all our resources our family is using,
and also to see the curriculum links we've shared since 2017!
