Homeschool is a Work of Heart
The world of education is changing, and more families are choosing a different way.

But even with all the benefits, the day-to-day can feel challenging.

Have you ever encouraged your children to be curious, lifelong learners?
I have, and this week, I found myself asking a different question: How often have I modeled that behavior myself?
Recently, I stumbled across a strange foamy substance on one of my rosemary plants. What started as a quick gardening observation turned into an unexpected lesson about curiosity, learning, and the importance of practicing what we preach.
In this episode, we'll explore the origin of the phrase "practice what you preach," the surprising truth about spittlebugs, and why one of the greatest gifts we can give our children is allowing them to see us learning right alongside them.
We'll also talk about simple ways to encourage curiosity during the summer months, why you don't need to have all the answers, and how a family journal of curiosity could become one of your favorite summer traditions.
If your goal is to raise children who love learning, this episode is a reminder that curiosity often begins with us.
