Stop Overworking and Start Enjoying Your Homeschool

Homeschool Better Together with Pam Barnhill - A podcast by Pam Barnhill - Tuesdays

In this episode, I share a hard-learned lesson: as homeschooling moms, we shouldn't be the ones working the hardest! I used to think every lesson had to be fun and engaging, but it turns out, simplicity and consistency are key.I talk about the importance of short, manageable lessons and meeting our kids where they are—focusing on what really matters. Morning time routines have also been a game changer, bringing our family together and making our homeschool days more joyful. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, remember to simplify, breathe, and focus on building those meaningful relationships.Key Takeaways:Simplify lessons and keep them short.Focus on consistency rather than perfection.Meet your kids where they are and consider their preferences.Incorporate a morning time routine for structure and joy.Resources & Links:Morning Time PlansHomeschool Better Together Community Homeschool Better Together Planning ResourcesSimplify Your Homeschool With These Five Curriculum TypesWonder Studies For full show notes and a transcript of today’s episode, head to pambarnhill.com/hsbt19To join our free homeschool community, you can create an account right here.Mentioned in this episode:Bring Wonder into Your Homeschool This Fall!Visit pambarnhill.com/wonder to bring wonder into your homeschool this Fall!
