In part two, we continue our deep dive into our homeschool positivity sandwich.

Patience and flexibility are the hot topic of today's chat. Dropping a very specific 'school' structure can be so empowering, but at the same time... confusing. Learning how to plan your days, or knowing when to drop them to stay home instead takes time to learn (and unlearn!)

The media sometimes make it into the not-so-nice part of this sandwich, as well as those people in our lives who just 'don't get it'.

Don't worry, it's not all bad! We finish off with how homeschooling encourages a life-long love of learning and the 'glimmers' that come along to reassure us that we are meant to be on this homeschooling path.

Do you have a good, bad or ugly experience of homeschooling?

What on earth is a homeschooling positivity sandwich?

It is an honest chat about all the good parts, bad parts and the 'ugly' parts of homeschooling all sandwiched together over two episodes.

In part one, there is plenty of chats about finding all the positive things in homeschooling, including connection, community and curiosity. But, this discussion also looks at the tough bits, like how to start trusting your instincts, how to cope with the financial changes and our experience of making decisions around spending and saving.

Plus, we explain why our houses are the 'ugly' part of this episode!

Listen in next week for part two.

It's here... Term Four... in all it's amazingness!!

Our 'holiday hibernation' has been restful and slow. But, we promise we did leave the house to have a few spontaneous adventures in-between.

We are very much preparing for the term ahead, wrapping up our year, and beginning the big task of report writing (head back to Episode 18 for our best tips and tricks if you are also report writing this term!). Holly shares how she is bringing back her family's favourite homeschool topic this term. And, it is so good, Gemma has decided to steal it too!

We have some amazing guests lined up for this term that we cannot wait to share with you. So, sit back, relax and let's embrace the beautiful chaos of this wonderful homeschool life.
