He called this family to take up the road less traveled, the one marked “Home Education.” That road has becomes a way of life, a way of seeing, a way of being. Here is how I might suggest you consider the journey into Home Education:

Authentically.Live your life. And invite your children to join you. Read together. Pray together. Sing together. Work, bake, garden, chore, clean, sew, fix, build together. Don’t fabricate artifical demarcation lines between schooling and living. Live a one-piece life. Live holistically.

Joyfully.Explore! Be awed by His World! Restore Wonder! Be a creative, thinking, exuberant person who spills with the joy of learning. Your zest for learning and life will be contagious–the children will catch it!

Curiously.Read, read, read. Fill the house with library books. Play classical music. Post the art of the masters about the house. Go for walks in the woods. Learn a new language, a new culture, a new poem. Everyday set out to discover again, and again, and again. The whole earth is full of His glory! Go seek His face…

Consistently.Consistently read. Consistently pray. Consistently keep the routine. Consistently live an everyday liturgy.Children thrive in routine. So do households. Have hardstops: times that you fully stop to pray, to read, to write. Regardless of what isn’t done, what isn’t finished. Make a full stop, do the needful thing, then return to meals, laundry, household management.Consistently be consistent.

That’s all. The curriculum doesn’t really matter, so much. Use what works for you, how He leads you. Just make it part of your real life, make it a joy, make it all a discovery, and prayerfully make it consistent.
