  • Outside the box approach to building up self-esteem and a reading culture
    2022/10/04

    In this episode I talk with my daughter about her experience writing her first book. We took on the project as an outside the box approach to dealing with her struggles in reading and writing. Both struggles are hard on their own, but in a family with a strong reading culture, it was really causing problems with her self-esteem. I talk a bit about how I met her needs during this process so that from start to finish it built up her confidence. Along the way she discovered that hey, she did like reading after all.

  • Scheduling Your Homeschool Day- High School Edition
    2022/09/20

    This time of year, lots of new parents join the homeschooling community. Both new and existing homeschoolers have lots of questions, doubts and concerns that come up, most of them have to do with scheduling their day, or what curriculum should they use. 

    Today I am going to talk about schedules, specifically for the older crowd, our highschoolers. If that describes you or someone you know then stick around and have a listen. If you have kids in several age groups, then remember it will look different for each of these areas, and maybe different for two kids in the same age range. High school may be less about play, it is still their experience, and they need to have a greater say in what is happening. If you'd like the link to my daily/weekly schedules,  planners to print out you can sign up for my newsletter and gain access them, and dozens of other free printables here.

  • Back to School or Not Back to School thoughts
    2022/08/29

    This is my first ever podcast and like I mentioned in my trailer I do go down some rabbit holes. On topic, though I talked about Back to School and what we call Not Back to School season, how it brings back some much-needed introspection and thoughts on years past.

    In addition, I rambled a bit about how my first set of books came into being.

    Do you celebrate Back to School, or NOT Back to School? Share with us some of your traditions on Social Media and tag me @WhimsyandPurpose or by using the hashtag #raisingsillygeese.
