Let’s be real—the pressure to do it all in your homeschool is absolutely, completely real.
But here’s the beautiful part: when God’s priorities become your priorities, you can actually release that pressure to cover everything perfectly. Instead, you get to put biblical discipleship first and—this is the good stuff—make teaching at home something you and your kids genuinely enjoy. Yes, it’s possible!
If this resonates with you, you’re going to love this: join us for the free online Homeschool Teaching Summit, October 19–23, 2026. It’s five days packed full of biblical encouragement and practical help, all built around the questions homeschool parents are actually asking:
Day 1: Do Not Grow Weary! Start strong with a kick-off keynote from homeschool mom and author Rosaria Butterfield.
Day 2: What Matters Most? We’re talking foundations—how to begin with a God-centered vision for your home education journey.
Day 3: How Do I Actually Make This Work? Welcome to the practical stuff. We’ll dig into real how-to’s and strategies that actually work for homeschool teaching.
Day 4: How Do I Handle the Tough Moments? Teaching “That” Kid: You know the one! Learn to parent and teach with a grace-filled spirit, even when things get challenging.
Day 5: How Do I Make This Sustainable? Teaching with Sanity: Let’s increase your peace with proven, simple plans and schedules that actually stick.
Watch the daily sessions October 19–23 (live or catch the replays!)

What if some of your child’s screen time turned into time to explore, create, and solve cool problems instead of just zoning out?
I’ve recently signed up as a SparkEd affiliate and earn a commission through my link, so you’re helping support Pollywog’s Place if you decide to try it. SparkEd pulls together both academic support and fun enrichment, with topics like invention, storytelling, and global exploration. Because it’s self-paced, families can weave learning into their routines without totally rearranging life. Start with your child’s interests, then pick a course that fits their readiness and comfort level.

We’ve been shaking things up a bit in our homeschool routines this year. One big goal has been finding lessons and workbooks that let the older kids work more independently (while I drink my coffee before it gets cold for once… lol… while working more one-on-one with our youngest child). I’ll chat more about the other curriculum changes later—some of the workbooks are still on back order, so we haven’t really tried them out yet—but we *have* started using another resource that I’m excited to tell you about right now.
We’re kicking things off with some of the Life Skills courses that have caught my crew’s eye. My boys are itching to tackle the Survivor Skills course, while my older daughter has her sights set on the Personal Finance course. Each course has 12 modules with four sections, which fits really nicely into our current homeschool rhythm without feeling overwhelming.
We’ll keep you posted once we’ve had more time to play with these new resources… and honestly, we’re nerd-level excited about it, so there *will* be updates!
Let me know if you have tried this out or what courses you are interested in!
