Hi Heather! This is Mary from VRA. So enjoyed your various KZbin videos. It's fun for me to reminisce about our homeschooling days. All the best and continued success! Love, Mary (PS - Just shared on my Facebook page for all my old homeschooling social circle to see. Told them they should subscribe!)

This really gave me much needed motivation...it's our second year and i am going through a time i hoped wouldn't happen...when life just hits you out of nowhere and there are many things going on with family...and personal things...our first year was awesome, busy, fun and creative...for some reason I'm feeling a struggle with different things this year. Kinda going through a down time, wondering what's wrong it is not flowing like last year and feeling such doubt.. have to say your videos have helped me so much! Thank you. I just discovered them today! Makes me feel some hope again! Your family has made me smile and feel uplifted...it's time for a change up...ready to be on it again!

Your schedule is close to ours! We do only four days a week and love it! I have dyslexic daughter and she loves having a "freebie"day, as we call it. We normally have Friday's off, but sometimes we swap it around to accommodate my husband's work schedule with family life. We use Easy Peasy right now and it's such a great fit for us. My kids really seem to enjoy this curriculum.

Thanks for sharing so much of your family with us all, I know that I find it inspiring. Sometimes when we're struggling we just need to see others doing what we're aiming for to fire us up and get us inspired again. Now excuse me while I go clean my school room!

I started off with the idea of reviewing books that I have read, and was then going to grow it from there. I have been reading since the age of 3, so have read a few books and it is something that I love doing:-) I had not considered topics, but am happy to incorporate new ideas. I am passionate about animals and volunteer at a shelter and would love to be a vet one day! I also play the piano, clarinet and love singing.

I think people should be homeschooled more. In a public school you get pressure more than at home so at homeschooling is better. At least you get to do homework anytime at any part of the house. Acts like a private school. Such a wonderful video. A basic skill set for the future I hope you guys the best.

I wish I could homeschool my kids. My son is going into high school now and my daughter is going to third grade. I just love the one on one interaction, the cute little homeschool room and just being able to teach them myself. When my son was little I used to do what I called homework activity where I would do almost like homework or homeschooling. I think I'm going to start doing the same thing with my daughter and just teach her extra in conjunction with school

She is technically in 2nd grade from when she came out of public school but really to be honest we have kind of gone away from the "grade level" concept because it really depends on the subject now. She ranges from 4th grade work to 1st grade work depending on the subject. That's the beauty of homeschool. Totally custom to her learning level :)

Great question. We are interacting on a daily basis is real life situations. The grocery store, the library, church. We have a great neighborhood of kids who play outside too and homeschool kids are just a part of the group. We also make time in the week to connect with other kids who are homeschooled. We create a community environment for our kids. I felt the same way before I started homeschooling.

Hi... I am getting started homeschooling my 2 little boys who are 4(prek) and 6(1st grade) and I am a little intimidated by homeschooling. I think the hardest part for me now is choosing curriculum. My 1st grader is familiar with abeka because he used that through kindergarten. Should I continue to use that?

OH I completely understand the curriculum struggle! :) Are you liking Abeka? If yes, then stick with it. There is no one right curriculum out there.

I like how you incorporate bible teaching when homeschooling. Where do you get the bible that your daughter has looks colorful.

I wish homeschooling was a possibillity in my country. But it's very hard for the government to accept parents who do so. There are strict rules. They mostly only accept either sick kids or where there is a clash of school with the families religion. And me and my husband don't really practice anu religion as of now... I feel in my heart it would be best for my future children, but sadly..

So sorry you are in that situation. I have a friend who is Germany and is unable to homeschool right now. Just know that YOU are still your childs first teacher and there is so much you can teach them outside of the walls of the classroom. Maybe choose some family subjects you want to learn together and make it fun. Hope that helps!

Hi There. I am not homeschool, but am an 11 year old girl that has just started doing book reviews online. I read all types of books and would love to give you feedback on any books that I have read. As, I mentioned, I am new to the youtube thing, so have read plenty more books than the videos that I have posted. If you have any particular book that you would like reviewed, so let me know.
