I want to be a place that provides both.” Lyndsey Mimnagh “We can see who God has designed our children to be when they play.” Lyndsey Mimnagh “School doesn't have to be in a classroom. School doesn't even need to be in a home. School can be outside!” Lyndsey Mimnagh “If you missed the start date of advent, you can start on whatever day of December you're on! This is the freedom we need as we celebrate Christmas.” Greta Eskridge “Wherever you are at this moment in December, it's OK to say, I am going to put some of these ideas into practice this week. It's not too late!” Greta Eskridge  “If you are in a season where it feels heavy and hard, and you have circumstances that don't lend themselves to doing all the Christmas things, that is OK. But also, if you are in a season where you can, or you are a person who finds doing all the crafts and Christmas activities life giving, that is OK too. We can be in both places at different times.” Greta Eskridge “What kids want and need is a calm and peaceful mom.” Lyndsey Mimnagh “Even if I want to be the Pinterest Christmas mom, if that comes at the expense of my peace, then it is not worth it for me.” Lyndsey Mimnagh “You have the freedom to do as much or as little as you can mange this Christmas because the focus of Christmas is Jesus and that is what we want to bring our kids back to over and over again.” Greta Eskridge  The Greta Eskridge Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

Summer is a time for playing in the sun, splashing around, sleeping in, roasting marshmallows and all around soaking up a season of chillaxin. But it can also be a season of planning.Before we know it the chaos of the school year will descend upon us. And if we don't plan thoughtfully, we may end up overwhelmed when our fall schedules start to pick up.How can we prepare at a high level now so that we don't lose sight of our top priorities when daily pressures begin to pile up? Why is it important to think through our priorities and values before planning our schedules and routines? What are your family priorities and values?What are some of the most important things to keep top of mind when deciding which activities to say yes to and which to say no to?“Time cannot be used over again. Time cannot be taken to the cleaners and brought back as good as new, to be used another way. Childhood cannot be used over again for another set of preparations nor a different set of memories.” –Edith Schaeffer, Common Sense Christian Living. Listen in for a conversation with Lyndsey Mimnagh, homeschool mama of four and the founder of Treehouse Schoolhouse on how to schedule our priorities rather than prioritize our schedules.Check out Treehouse Schoolhouse for loads of beautiful and inspiring resources including nature study, book lists, and family-centered devotionals.Enjoy 20 percent off digital products now through July 28th!

I am a firm believer that education does not take place exclusively within the walls of a classroom during certain hours of the day.  I loved chatting with Lyndsey again on the podcast about the freedom that comes with prioritizing an environment of learning in your home instead of strict parameters around when and how school must happen.  Lyndsey shares why year-round schooling gives her family more flexibility and how their daily rhythm fluctuates with the seasons.  Whether you are already in the thick of homeschooling or thinking about getting started, let this episode encourage you and take the pressure off!  In this episode, we cover: How Lyndsey and her husband self-designed and self-built their new home and involved their children in the process What it looks like to homeschool year-round and why it's so freeing How a typical day in the life of a year-round homeschooling family may shift with the seasons Debunking some common misconceptions about how a homeschool day unfolds Viewing your family as a community that works together Making intentional choices to turn everyday tasks into learning opportunities for your children Considering the opportunity cost of prioritizing a rigid bookwork schedule in your education Encouragement for the mom who is nervous to start homeschooling Changing your perspective on what education can look like in chaotic seasons of life Practical considerations for how to set up your home to support a home-centered life View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

Ever wondered what drives a mother to pull her kids from a traditional school setting and venture into the realm of homeschooling? My guest, Tiffany, a nurturing soul to five boys, and I peel back the layers on why we both made this audacious switch. This episode is a compass guiding you through our homeschooling journeys, uncovering the joys and trials we encounter while shaping young minds.Our discourse goes beyond just our personal narratives. We traverse the expansive landscape of homeschool curriculums, spotlighting the remarkable Logic of English curriculum, a transformative tool in Tiffany's teaching arsenal. The conversation takes an intriguing turn as we dissect the rise of homeschooling during COVID-19, the uniqueness of charter schools in the Golden State, and the looming shadow of government involvement on homeschooling. We wrap up with a deep dive into the teaching of history, a subject often heavily whitewashed or stripped of its richness. With Tiffany's background in law and history, and as a progeny of Czech Republic lineage, she shares her unique Symphony of History curriculum with us. This innovative approach sees the teaching of history as a cyclical, interconnected journey, emphasizing the need to view historic events from different lenses. We also touch upon teaching contentious events, offering tips on how to present balanced perspectives to our little historians. So pull up a chair, grab a cup of tea, and join us for a dynamic and enlightening conversation on the transformative world of homeschooling.Website: Moraviapress.blogThe Symphony of HistoryIG: beautyof_homeschoolPrint Partner: Humble Heart Press code: MORAVIA10 for 10% print of Moravia Press productsLogic of English*****PLEASE share SHARE share this link with friends and in your favorite homeschool group facebook page if you enjoy this podcast and want to hear more episodes! http://thehomeschoolhowto.com/Do you want to help your children learn about true history, sound money, personal freedom, responsibility, entrepreneurship and individual rights?

What if the education system is failing our children, leaving them ill-prepared for the real world and stifling their creative potential? We tackle this pressing issue in our deeply engaging discussion with Nicola, a lecturer from Scotland, who shares her unique insights on this matter. We turn our focus to the infantilization of youth, particularly in the UK and Scotland, and how government policies contribute to this alarming trend. We question the skills traditional education imparts and highlight the glaring disconnect between what's taught in schools and what's needed in the workforce. Our conversation takes a fascinating turn as we scrutinize the influence of government and media manipulation, specifically in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. We dissect the breakdown of systems, the strict measures implemented in the US and the UK, and the role media and Hollywood play in shaping public opinion. We go on to discuss the issues surrounding borders, diversity, and censorship—touching on the BLM protests, open borders, and immigration. In a thought-provoking discourse, we question and critically evaluate the ongoing societal concerns.Finally, we explore the challenges and frustrations of teaching in a censored environment and the potential negative impacts on students. We come up with creative solutions for parents to engage their children in problem-solving activities and underscore the significance of creativity in education.  This conversation is more than just an informative discussion—it's a call to action for a better, more effective education system.

This episode offers an intriguing exploration into homeschooling, health, and holistic living with our guest, Emilee.

They give us a glimpse into their unique approach to education, making us ponder on the possibilities outside the conventional education system.Ever thought about the publishing process, that journey from the birth of an idea to the final book cover design? Well, we sure got you covered! Step into the world of Genevieve, a young author thriving in a different educational environment. She shares her experiences on how homeschooling has nurtured her creativity, leading to her publishing a book. Together with her dad, Kyle, they dig deeper into the nitty-gritty of the publishing process, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what it took to get her book from idea to printed page.But, hey, let's not forget about the digital age we're living in. In homeschooling, there's the challenge of managing screen time. Kyle and Genevieve discuss the importance of fostering a balance between pursuing passions and internet usage, touching on the necessity of setting guidelines for their use of the internet. They underline how homeschooling has enabled their children to explore their individual passions and interests while highlighting the need for moderation when it comes to screen time. So, buckle up and join us on this enlightening discussion as we dive into the homeschooling realm, right from the perspective of those who live it.Where to Find Genevieve:Genevieve's BookGenevieve's Facebook PageGenevieve's InstagramGenevieve's YouTube Page*****PLEASE share SHARE share this link with friends and in your favorite homeschool group facebook page if you enjoy this podcast and want to hear more episodes! http://thehomeschoolhowto.com/Do you want to help your children learn about true history, sound money, personal freedom, responsibility, entrepreneurship and individual rights?

What a pleasure to be joined by Brittni this week, homeschooling mom of three and owner of Henrieka Farm Center, a farm school she created in New York after leaving her teaching position. Brittni is also a member of the military, so we thank her for her service to our country.  Brittni explains to us the importance of doing things for our community, whether it be providing farm fresh food to those in need, or providing a screen free, nature filled before and after care for the local school children.  I ask Brittni how she came to the decision to leave her career and steady income to homeschool her children and open her farm school. She explains the steps she went through to make such a decision. We discuss how the land she and her husband purchased was once a cottage for the socialites of Albany, NY. Brittni started out by raising chickens and expanded over the years. She even explains to us how she "tanned the hide" this year- and yes, I had to ask her what that meant!  Brittni created Henrieka Farm Center to nurture children through free play, calculated and supervised risk and to provide an education into the field of agriculture, directly connecting kids to not only the world around them, but their food supply.  The children at Brittni's school learn from a young age how to take care of themselves and others. They learn through experiencing fundamental literacy and educational practices to develop themselves into productive and engaged citizens of their communities. I think it's safe to say that more of these types of schools are needed in our country. There is such a disconnect today with kids to nature and the food they consume and it's only growing worse with the more we rely on screens. I hope Brittni's message finds those who need or want to hear it and I hope we can work together to bring experiences like this to the children of our communities.

This week we welcome Allisia, or "Babe" as everyone (including her kids, neighbors and mailman) calls her, from Colorado! Allisia is a mom of six- two stepsons and four biological children. Allisia chats with us about how her family is on their third phase of their homeschooling journey- trying everything from public school, charter school and homeschool, to find the right fit. Allisia explains the issues her kids had in each school, like a screaming principle in the lunchroom of an elementary school, and what ultimately lead them to homeschool. I ask Allisia about homeschooling stepkids and how the children's biological mother feels about Allisia being the kid's primary educator. We discuss how homeschooling allows us the time to do what we really want to do with our extra time- but what does that mean for kids who don't know what to do with their time? We talk about how video games can be an easy trap for kids and how the growing brain actually changes the way it develops based on the number of screen changes it sees, causing quick dopamine hits, and how that affects ADD and ADHD. Have you ever asked, "Why do I need to know this?" Well, I have too. We discuss what is actually necessary to know and how it's all based on our world view. Allisia asks parents, "do you believe your child has a unique set of skills, experiences and way of thinking and a destiny they're meant to fulfill in this world?" If so, then how can we justify sending our kids to an institution that makes them all cookie cutter products? Mind-blown!!!!This interview is touching, inspiring, and thought-provoking!

This week we welcome Lauren, mom of three. Lauren started homeschooling just before covid, after her son came home from school with some discouraging behavioral reports from his teacher. Lauren's son was so saddened by getting the bad report, that he told his mother something no mom ever wants to hear.. soon after, Lauren pulled her kids from school. After meeting with doctors for her son's ADHD diagnosis and refusing to medicate him, Lauren began exploring other ways to assist her son with learning. Lauren brings us with her on her own diagnosis of anxiety and depression and discusses when she feels medication is appropriate and when alternatives can be used. We chat about "strewing", and how Lauren uses this technique with her kids. Strewing is about helping your kids explore and play and create on their own. It's about introducing or reintroducing materials, books, concepts, in a non-pushy way that lets them own the experience and gives them the thrill of discovery. We discuss kid's podcasts, emergency preparedness, and why it's so important to teach kids how to identify manipulation. Join us for a heartfelt discussion between two moms who don't have it all figured out, but love their kids and are trying each day to better themselves for those little rascals!

Lindsey Minmaugh has grown a huge online following for her beautiful curriculums, nature studies, and always-inspiring social media posts (See: Treehouse Schoolhouse online) I love her book suggestions and all of her ideas for training little ones with good habits, life skills, and open-ended play! Beginning her homeschooling journey before she had kids of her own (by homeschooling other people's kids!) Lindsey has experience and wisdom to share. In today's episode we talk about five ways to set toddlers up for success. These are great ideas for turning what can feel like very long days (or was it just me?) into intentional opportunities to shape young lives and prepare kids for a life of learning ahead! See show notes for a summary of Lindsey's list and links to everything she mentions! Show notes: http://monicaswanson.com/treehouse-schoolhouse General podcast page: http://www.monicaswanson.com/podcast Looking for new math or science homeschool curriculum?

Can you imagine a world where your kids had room to be kids? Where they didn't hate learning? Where they learned the Bible, core subjects and still had time to play and create and travel? Homeschooling has come so far over the years. As the culture changes and gets further from Jesus and biblical teachings - I think it's important to pause and just consider if this could be an option for your family. However, we all carry myths about homeschooling. Whether it's the idea that they won't be socialized or that moms can't have a job outside of this or that we have to be good in all subjects - let's debunk those together. I am delighted to learn from Lyndsey Mimnagh with Treehouse Schoolhouse in this episode. She is so passionate about this style of education and helps break down the myths and the realities. My favorite part is when she shares about the benefits she is seeing in her children and their family culture. Don't let fear or insecurity talk you out of something God is nudging you to try! Take a listen and pray on the next steps for your children and their schooling. Just one step. Don't believe the lie that you have to make that decision when they are toddlers and never change course. Enjoy!Courtney (03:000 The Joys of Camping and Family Adventures(05:55) The Journey into Homeschooling(08:52) Debunking Myths About Homeschooling(11:56) Socialization in Homeschooling(14:51) The Role of Parents in Homeschooling(17:05) The Joy of Learning at Home(21:30) Balancing Homeschooling and Personal Life(22:48) Creating Resources for Homeschooling(25:01) Rooted in Faith: A Curriculum for Families(27:04) Encouragement for Hesitant Parents(29:10) Navigating Independence in Parenting(31:14) Practical Tips for Daily LifeConnect with Pardon The Mess:Christian ParentingPardon The Mess Courtney DeFeoGet your 2024-2025 prayer journal, A Life of FaithResources from today's show:Connect with Lyndsey at Treehouse Schoolhouse (CODE: PARDONTHEMESS15 = 15% OFF anything in her store) Rooted - Family Bible Curriculum Treehouse Book ClubMarriage SimplifiedPardon The Mess is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.
